Default How loud would this combo be?

LS6, AFR heads, G5X3 cam, LG pro headers, random tech cats, Corsa Pace Car exhaust.....

I don't mind a nice rumble but don't want it to be loud enough to tick off my neighbors! Thinking the cats will quiet it down some. If I went with offroads, the Touring Corsa's would probably be a better choice...

there's a vid in this thread with that set up. i think he's running off-roads though...so with the cats it should be a bit quieter.

I had LT's and Corsa Indy's on my 346 for a while. They can be fairly quiet when need be but really scream at WFO. THey do get VERY LOUD at WFO.

I have a very similar setup and mine is only loud at WOT. Actually is a little too quiet for me.

I'm running Dynatech LT's (off road x-pipe), Corsa Indy's, G5X3 112 lsa, Yank 3600 stall with 3:73's and it's LOUD. I like it, but for some it's a bit much. If it's not your DD I don't think it should be a problem. Oh, and WOT is just nasty
