I just had my cats go out on my 98. Luckily they are warrentied till 70,000 miles so GM is fixing them for me. Now, I think I want to run a cat back system on the car and wasn't sure which system to go with. I am looking to sell the car in the near future so don't want one of the high dollar corsa system (would prob never recupe that $$). Looks like Elderbrock, Hooker, and Flowmaster all have systems around the $300 range. Has anyone had experience with any of these? Any recomendations?

Also, like I said I may be selling the car if anyone is interested. 98 Z28 Hardtop 6 speed. 18 inch Z06 wheels, ss spoiler, lowered w/ 8 way adjustable shocks. Have all original parts too.

Thanks for the help!!

Magnaflow:  Great price for Stainless (though I think the $319 price is very old considering it's a lot less than I pay for it, or it could have been one of the older systems that was aluminized pipe with stainless muffler/tips).  I like the fact they don't use a cross-flow muffler but turn the right side tip around to minimize restriction in the muffler.  Not crazy about the tips though..... 

Nope $319 is from last year and for 409 SS pipes and 304SS tips and muffler. I ordered from the below vendor and it was 300 before shipping.

Evidently prices have increased this year. IIRC, the LS1 magnaflow catbacks have always cost more.

I noticed that the LT1 MagnaFlow system looked just like the LS1 system, except you get the s-pipe for the pre-96 LT1 cars with the LT1 system.

Is the I-pipe the same length on the two systems? If that's the case, I'd order the LT1 & save a few bucks.
