Can't Decide on a Cat Back - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I've seen a ton of videos and I still can't make up my mind.

I was leaning towards the Magnaflow 2.5" Comp Series cat back. I've seen some good videos of it and some bad videos of it. So I wasn't sure how it would turn out. Can people who have the 2.5" Comp Series post some good videos? I've seen all of the videos on this website.

Any other cat backs that sound deep and have that muscle car growl? I also liked the Solo Mach-XL and the SLP 3" cat back with the x-pipe (in the video).

And keep in mind I have an automatic SS (L99).

I bought the Pypes version last week. After watching many videos and spending a huge amount of time, it sounded the best to me.

Wow, they sound really nice actually.

SLP Loudmouth would be the way to go if you want a muscle car sound.

I'm looking for a cat back.

Have you heard the catback exhaust kit from B&B. Check it out see if you like it. Great sounding exhaust.

Are these the same cat backs? They don't sound like each other when they're revving them.

MoranoRacing · 02-07-2010, 08:33 PM

If you like a chambered sound then maybe flowmaster is for you. http://www.************.com/flamthcatbae.html

Perhaps one is the axle back and one is the catback exhaust from pypes

wow the one exhaust on the second video (silver car) sounds mean as hell.

i went with the MBRP with square tips by the way. they sound the best to me.

Here's a video of my Borla Stinger cat-back. I love the deep rumble. A lot of the others were to high and "raspy" for me.

If I had to do it all over, (got the street series magnaflow), I would just remove the stock mufflers and save $$
