Exhaust Help
Hello,
I have a 2010 SS L99 I just bought with an MBRP cat back already installed. I would like a set of headers and an off-road pipe that will bolt up to the MBRP. Any ideas if most long tubes and off road pipes will fit or, will I need an exhaust shop to marry them up? Thanks |

I believe most will fit. If they don't an exhaust shop can make them very easily. You should be good to go!

What speedster said! Most should just bolt-on.

Yep, they're a bolt on and go mod. Just make sure you get the right connection pipe. You should likely be looking for a 2.5" connection.

the mbrp catback is 3" and has a built in reducer to fit the factory catalytics. I bought that exhaust when it first came out and when i bought LT's they bolted right in except i wanted a true full 3" exhaust so i had a muffler shop cut the 3 to 2.5 reducer off and now i have a true 3" exhaust from header to exhaust tips.
Also.......one word of advice, the MBRP system is LOUD AS F*** and very raspy and obnoxious with LT's and offroad pipes. I had to change out the mufflers that were supplied with the system because it sounded like an old 70s camaro with 40 series 2 chamber flow masters. Maybe you'll like it but i certainly didnt. It sounded really nice with the factory manifolds and catalytics, but not after LT's and offroad pipes. Here is my car with 1 7/8" Dynatech LT's with 3" offroad mids and the full 3" mbrp system with the MBRP mufflers that came with it (non-cold start up) Screwing Around Here is the exact same setup but with the Magnaflow 12229 mufflers instead (3" in and out) (cold start up thats why i only revved it up to about 3700 rpms)

I would suggest probably using hiflo cats to cut down rasp and drone. Just a thought......

the high flow cats are definitely an option. But i got the mufflers for $235 installed so i just went that route.

Thanks Guys. I have heard that the factory cats flow pretty good. I think I will just keep them on. I will be adding an SLP s/c this fall along with the LTs. I will see how it sounds after the s/c and headers before making a call on the cats and/or different mufflers.
Thanks again!! |

the factory cats flow pretty good. How true Is this? Was thinking of solo hi flow cats as one of my 1st mods. Is it a waste of $$$

The factory cats are the biggest choke point of the factory exhaust. Eliminating them or substituting them for high flow cats is one of the most beneficial bolt on mods a person can do, IMO. You not only gain performance, but the cars really come alive in sound volume too.
