Exhaust thoughts for 2016 1ss

Hello all,
I am wanting to put long tube headers on my camaro plus run straight pipes back to muffler delete quad tips. I don't want the resonators or cats. Has anyone done this? Thoughts on brand for headers and the straight pipes/muffler deletes pipes? Do the long tube drag at all on 2016 1ss? Currently I have a Nick Williams 103mm Throttle body with airforce 103mm aftermarket air intake manifold with rotofab cold air intake. Any ideas and help are much appreciated!

Sorry but you have ZERO options living in California. Unless, you intend to remove all your mods before inspections. Even then you would risk getting pulled over and ticketed.

My car. It was too loud for my taste so I switched back to the stock NPP muffler.

Thank you for actually posting something that gives insight on my question rather than just commenting on California.

Hope you are ready to wake up the island then. NA18CAMAROSS setup on that video was wake the dead loud, he has made the set up more quiet by removing the MBRP and re-installing the factory NPP muffler.

I have this setup. Texas speed 1 7/8" long tube headers, 3" off road x pipe, and no mufflers (fully straight piped with long tubes and x pipe) I live in socal, its really loud especially on the higher rpms. Im also on a flex tune and the pops on 91 are really loud and deep. On e85 it dosent really pop.

Really loud cold starts, deep idle, and idle off a cold start is kinda choppy like a small cam. Ive had mopar guys asking if im cammed since they don't really know what real chop sounds like haha,

After all that im looking for some carven TR mufflers 3 inch to make sound deeper.
