Best exhaust setup for the LLT?

I’m looking into doing a full exhaust upgrade on my 2011 2LT Camaro. I was wondering what the best possible long tube headers were that were steel and had ceramic coating. Correct me if I’m wrong but I think BBK has the best long tube headers.

I was also wondering if I should go with an x pipe and an axle back exhaust or go with a catback exhaust. Whichever one gives me the maximum performance gain.

BBK, ARH, OBX. Everyone likes what they buy, can't go wrong with any. If you do that, you need the Magnaflow 11386 resonated x pipe, yeah, for the center. Mufflers are kinda your choice for the tone you want. Solo Performance resonators are a good choice, Magnaflow, Corsa, Borla, MRT mufflers are all options. Performance is from the headers, not so much your exhaust. Maybe skim youtube for different exhaust muffler options?

The addition of a set of long tubes will substantially increase the exhaust note of most exhaust systems. If your vehicle is a daily driver you may want to consider an exhaust with a more moderate tone. However, if you like a nice aggressive exhaust tone check out our American Thunder Cat-back and Axle-back Systems for your Camaro. Either option will have a deep, refined exhaust note, manufactured in the USA from 409S stainless steel and include a lifetime, limited warranty. Both options will increase the performance of your vehicle over stock, with the full Cat-back having an advantage over the Axle-back in terms of performance. This advantage is mainly due to the Flowmaster Scavenger X-pipe that is part of the Cat-back System. I have included links below to both options as well as a short video on the Flowmaster American Thunder Axle-back System, part# 817483. If you have any questions or need additional recommendations please give us a call at 707-544-4761.
