LT Headers coming soon... What exhaust?

What exhaust can give me a nice... snarl?


But so far looks like most people here are pretty set on Borla Atak and Corsa.

How about Magnaflow?

Because right now I just have a muffler delete, and there's a lot of mixed opinions on a muffler delete and getting pulled over for it being too loud.

I've done plenty of research on both

Borla
https://www.google.com/#q=site:camar...rla+lt+headers

Corsa
https://www.google.com/search?q=site...rsa+lt+headers


From personal experience, does the Corsa seem to be quiet while cruising? Because with no LT headers and just muffler delete, you can hardly hear the car at all. (at least I feel the way while cruising or while the car is slowing down)

Borla S-type is great with headers. I run it on my own car. We sell them at a pretty rocking price also.

Checkout the Texas Speed header system. You can add the TSP x pipe or x pipe & exhaust with magnaflow mufflers!!

Still debating.

I guess it boils down to sound quality itself and the tones. I'm not too concerned about decibels.

Clearly Corsa wins when it comes to drone free, but some people feel that at a cruising speed, even with LT's (mine will be kooks) it's too quiet.

However I read here
http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=204082

That Borla Atak's weren't designed for LT's and brings about an "unpleasant sound" which can be kind of subjective I guess.

So out of the two, when it comes to high rpm's and deceleration, does anyone know which one allows for more of that lovely popping sound?
