Comprehensive list of good sounding high flow cats?
I live in a state with very strict visual inspection laws so i have to have some cats.
I'm looking for a set that sounds as good as possible for an LT install, i'm very much about upgrading my car and currently I'm running GTA muffler and don't want to ruin the sound as that wouldn't be an upgrade. Some people like to focus on one area, but I like to have a total package.
What cats hould I buy that improve both prefromance and sound?

If you want a GREAT sounding exhaust, a good starting point (something that comes with Cats) is the Bassani Modular X-pipe like I have. It comes with the X-pipe, High Flow cats, and cat delete piping. I LOVE the sound of it, even on the stock headers and mufflers.
I am trying to post a video... but for some reason I cannot copy and paste...
Stay tuned... I will get it up sooner or later.
EDIT: I got it.... here you go. This was with the Bassani Modular X, 2 days after install, and no mufflers. I have since put the factory mufflers back on the car though.

I have the Kooks with the catted X pipe. They sound ok, but now they offer a catted H pipe. I bet that it would have a much better sound to it.

I'm confused - are you asking about cats or a catted H/X pipe?
