I have TPIS LTs, with Random Tech High flow cats and x-pipe. Use to exit GHL exhuast, now have straight pipes.

You will LIKE THE sound, Loud but not too bad. Good power adder.

I have a Corsa Pace Car cat back, recently added a set of LG longtubes, hi flow cats X pipe. With the stock manifolds and cats it was very quiet at idle, strong bellow at WOT; with the LG set up, now it has a quiet growl at idle, bark at lower RPM, really loud exotic scream at WOT. I love it. Sound like nothing else I've heard. Car was dyno tuned after install, added 30+ both Tq and HP on a Mustang Dyno. You'll only wake the dead at WOT.

PLEASE what ever you do don't take the cats off. A few HP and decibels isn't worth what you would do to the environment
