Default 07 Tahoe: Aftermarket Exhaust Opinions

Hey everyone,
I am looking into getting an exhaust system for the Tahoe and was wondering if anyone has a system installed, if so, what kind and do you like it, cabin noise?

I've been on all the websites trying to listen to the exhaust systems, Magnaflow, Gibson, etc.

I think I may be leaning toward the Gibson, Dual Sport (2 tips coming out of one side) system.

Any input would be greatly appreciated, Thank you.
Jay

I don't have one on my '07 but I had the Corsa with the dual tip out one side on my '01 Tahoe. Sounded great but really too much noise I feel for the '07.
I cut the resinator off the '07 and ran another pipe out to the side with a stainless tip. Noticed a little more noise but nothing like the cat back of Corsa's. Looks good.
That's all I am going to do.

Don't buy the cat back system. Go ahead and get the magnaflow muffler and tip but get it custom done. The system costs about 600 plus labor. I priced one with just muffler and tip, custom install and it came out to be $360.

Anyone try the GM cat-back performance system?

Nope, I heard that it is too expensive and not as good as the others. Plus they will probablycharge you about 300 for labor.

Flowmaster and Gibson catback systems are like $300 shipped (non-stainless)

How are custom jobs that much cheaper?

I ran into a guy at Home Depot 2 weeks ago who had the GM exhaust. It looked real good and sounded nice. I can't remember which one he said he got but didn't opt for the louder of the two. Said it adds a nice rumble and is not noticeable in the truck unless he really gets on it. I really liked the single tip...believe it had either the GM logo or CHEVY on it...

vyslouzil, Where did you find the cat back system for 300. Everything I found is about 500-600.. The custom job costs cheaper b/c they don't use the same type of tubing, which you don't see anyway. They do use the muffler and the tip.

Haven't priced it yet but would install myself. Was yours stainless steel?
