My setup is Pacesetter LT's and ORY to a single 3"x18" Dynomax Bullet. It's definitely loud and has a good bit of drone from 1500-1700 rpm, but past that it dissapears. But now that I'm running 4.56 gears, I cruise right at 2250rpm at 70, so it's not bad. I think I may end up going to a Magnaflow when I get tired of this setup or the cops give me crap.

i've had about 4-5 different exhaust setup, im currently running LT's, ORY, SLP resonator, 3" all the way to the back,

well its freakin loud but sounds good! does have some horrible rasp from 2500-3000, so i stay under 2500 or go WOT! lol... cam sounds so good at idle..... but this is NOT my DD so I think thats why i can handle it....

but I think the best muffler that i have used so far is the Borla XR1

Pacesetter LT's with ORY pipe, single 3" all the way, 3" cutout, 18" magnaflow 3"single in/2.5" dual out with turn downs right before the rear axle.

Would sound good if I didn't have such horrible exhaust leaks (I need V-bands bad)

I love my current setup. Pacesetter LT's, dual 3" w/cats into a single 4" with a 5" tip in the stock spot...looks fantastic, and sounds amazing too. Best part is I built it all. I'll probably change it when I get my bigger engine, but its right where I want it for the 5.3
It resembles the sound of a duramax at idle, without the turbo whistle.

i've got pacesetter LT's and ORY w/ a magnaflow single 3" exhaust system. love it, not too loud idling or at cruise, sounds nice and mean when i open it up.
i would like it to be quieter, too many loud cars over the years, thinking of adding another muffler in the form of a turbo

OBX longtubes, ORY Gibson dual in/out. Installed Magnaflow bullets to get rid of the rasp and drone. It's O.K. now but I am going back to magnaflow 15838 in a couple of weeks. Best all around sound. No drone, good idle rumble, Reasonably quiet at idle, and sound great when you open it up.
