i think pacesetter is the only company with LT's out so far for the 07.5-09 trucks...as far as mufflers just depends on what you like for sound http://texas-speed.com/shop/item.asp...=1072&catid=20

Pacesetter is one of cheapest out there. But I wouldn't put it on my truck personally. I want a set of obx headers or LPP.

But just some advice on mufflers, I would go with magnaflow, borla, or corsa. They are better sounding mufflers and flow great. No exhaust is going to give you a tremendous amount of horse power but these are still nice selection of mufflers. Also, remeber, the smaller the caseing, the louder it is.

No one uses them because they are "reverse flow louvered" ..meaning they have little perforated pockets that catch and slow down your exhaust..Find a used Corsa muffler on here or ebay...I LOVE mine!!

this isnt gmt 900 specific, but on my last truck i had two different gibson mufflers have something come separated inside and would rattle. They made me pay a deposit on the new system and wanted me to ship the old system back on my dime to inspect it to determine if it was gonna be covered under warranty or not. Needless to say i wont purchase anything gibson ever again..

I have pacesetters with borla. the borla has a nice growl to it, not too loud. so i have a 3" electric cut out after my catless y-pipe when i want that really aggressive sound
