Doing things backwards...help
wife said the last car was too loud....drone
this car is pretty much stock with the exception of the procharger and the stinger catback. Think I am going back to the touring exhaust and gutting cats and adding headers. What is the header setup of choice for you FI guys. 1 3/4 or 1 7/8? Kooks? I think I will get back some of the noise I like while keeping her at bay this way! Thanks in advance you guys!

I have the Procharger with 1-7/8 American Racing headers, high-flow cats, and Corsa Sports. Very little drone. I had Bullets and GHL's. Couldn't take either. My ears would ring even after a short drive. Much better now.

We always bolt 1 7/8" headers up to the LS2 and use 1 3/4" for stock/mildly modified LS1s. Those combined with the supercharger would be a good combination. Gutting the cats will provide you with an aggressive sound, even with following it up with a Touring system. I'd say it will be at least as aggressive as the Stingers that your using now. Possibly more drone. Long tubes with cats ahead of a Touring system will usually be as loud as a Sport exhaust and no headers. Headers will kick up Sport system up a few notches and that combo with no cats will be even louder.
