The stock H-pipe is perfectly fine for the majority of mods that are done to these cars. I don't suggest straight pipes at all because you will decrease the exhaust flow performance. In summary: 1. If all you want is to change what it sounds like; get an axle-back. 2. If you want to increase volume, change the sound, and not throw codes; get HF cats and an axle back. 3. If you want max performance, more volume, and change the sound; get LTs and a tune. After that, look into an axle-back or a cat back to get the sound you want. Keep in mind that, after LTs and a tune, changing the mid section really won't get you anything except a little weight reduction.

A resonator delete on a LS3 is pointless unless you just want to make your car as loud as you possibly can. There isn't a weight savings like there is on the L99. If you're going to do straight pipes, just do a muffler delete and call it a day. There is a H pipe already ahead of the two resonators so you're good to go on a crossover. No X pipe needed unless you just really want one.

It would be nice is they would make a prochamber for these cars. They sound awesome to me. It's like a combo Xpipe in chamber!

They have a MF makes a resonated X pipe that several guys run with their muffler delete.

Is it just a empty box with in's and out's on it? If so, it doesn't seem like it would be too hard to make one.
