I have decided to get a 2 chamber crossflow style flomaster exhaust with a bigger Y pipe, remove the cat, and have dual 3 1/2 inch tips. Do you think that will sound good? I heard a sound clip in the Movie section of Murts old Iroc with the same setup. The only difference is that i have a 350 TPI( he has the 305 TPI). I talked to the exhaust shop and i hope to get it done when i come back from vacation in the middle of next month!

Ummmm, ok. I understand the not having the money. But there's a reason why everyone has headers. The stock manifolds and y-pipe are a joke. Headers increase HP, that's like saying everyone has a Flowmaster, it's because they're better than the stock muffler.
