We will have to have a get together. It really sounds good. My kids LOOOOVE the sound as does most others. Actually, Im not sure where this comes from, but it sounds like I have a turbo when it hits about 4,000 rpm. It has like a whistling sound. Its quite a rush!!

You will NEVER sound like a ricer with the Cattman exhaust. I have one mated with the VQ35 in my car, and would never go back.

^LOL^

I love my Greddy - not ricey at all, sounds tough. I also like the Cattman's, can't go wrong with either choice IMO.

Greedy sounds expensive. I like the Cattman options and sound.

I heard there is a Greddy version aswell

I have the Cattman without the resonator and absolutely love it. With the twin magnaflows it has a nice deep growl, nothing rice about it. Plus the twin tips looks closer to the stock exhaust. I guess it is a matter of preference, personally I don't like the look of the big cans on the back.

Im sure both have good sound, but I too prefer the more stock look of the twin pipes on the Cattman and get compliments alllll the time on it. I think the Greddy "sewer pipe" system is an invite to the law enforcment to get pulled over, I have enough violations as it is, lol

I have NO sound issues with the Greddy's .They have an aggressive look but really just purr - that is until you hit over 4K - then they get nasty.

Coupled with an intake, the VQ roars - it's a GREAT feeling

AWESOME engine we have...

the greddy catback system have a nice tone, but if i was to go for looks i would go with the cattman exhaust it has a more cleaner look

Why would a cop pull you over because you have an exhaust? Only reason would be because its loud and I have a feeling that the cattman without res. is louder than the Greddy.

It is loud but nothing like straight pipes with glass packs, I have not had an issue with police as of yet.

I put in carpet padding in my trunk. I removed the liners, glued in padding, and replaced liner. It helped quite a bit. I did a thread on it.

hehe, I actually did get pulled over for no front plate once and the cop asked me if I put the exhaust on myself. I told him yes and he said it looked very nice.

HEY!!! I was just asking about this..thanks for posting

with or without resonator...which one has a deeper growl?

I used to have an 84 T/A with 3" exhaust and hollow cats. The rumble was sooo deep I used to set off alarms in parking garages. I'd like my max to do that

OK Guyz (and girlz)..I need your advice

So I'm checking on an exhaust upgrade and really like the cattman kit for $800, although I still haven't decided if I want the reasonator. Today I went to a shop that will create and install custom pipes for $500. The differences are:

- they use aluminized pipes ( says it won't corode )
- the muffler would be cherry bomb, not master flow
- the entire setup would not be polished except for the steel tips for the cherry bomb
- he would have to cut the stock pipe between the reasonator and the flange after the y-pipe and use clamps so I will be able to install a custom y-pipe later.

Do you think this setup will be good and durable? Is it worth saving about $300.00? His quote was an estimate so I'm guessing it may be alittle more.

Thanks for any help you can give

Do what you think is best for your circumstance, but my advice is to never shortchange yourself. I would rather spend $300 more and be confident that I am getting exactly what I want and the exact quality I would expect for my dollar. And to me, master flow is better.

Lol, I think he meant Flowmaster. If you were to do it at least go with a Flowmaster or Magnaflow muffler instead of a "cherry bomb". Cherry bombs sound like crap btw.

Save up for the Cattman, you'll be much happier! Find a 1978 Camaro and throw the Cherry Bomb on that. Good luck!
