What is the loudest setup without it being Raspy?
Hey guys, recently totaled totaled my v6 Camaro and gonna upgrade to a LS3 very soon. I've been roaming around this section for a couple of weeks and have read a lot of useful information . I'm leaning more towards Kooks LT headers with hi flow cats and Borla Atak but I was wondering what is the loudest setup you can have without it being Raspy or having drone. What are y'alls suggestions?

The flowmaster outlaw as loud as the atak,but it should be less raspy. Both are pretty straight.

After lurking this section for 2 weeks a lot of people seem to complain about sounding raspy and smelling like gas, is this true?

It's fun dropping it in third and going WOT on the interstate right next to someone with their window down.

maybe with a cam. when i was LT's, no cats, and borla attack cat back I didnt have a problem with smell. once i threw the cam in, my car smelled like a mofo all the time.

get high flow cats if you are worried about the smell. have someone weld in some J-pipes by the mufflers if you want to get rid of rasp and drone. IMO a SS with a good exhaust has somewhat of a trombone at the top of the RPM range under load.
