I just put this kit on my TA. Goes on really easy. Not very loud at all. Has a nice low rumble to it. I'm comparing it to my 95 that has a gutted cat and cutout though. Even with a gutted cat,shorty headers it still sounds good. Excellent price too. Here's a vid. with a lt1 though not a tpi.

first of all they are not stainless - magnaflow is stainless.
they both come in 3 inch pipes but the hooker goes down to 2 1/2 and mag goes to 3 1/2 tips.
the mag is ok for 305 and 350 - so if you upgrade you dont have to change them. the hooker is only for the 305. here is what jegs says - http://www.jegs.com/p/Hooker/744803/10002/-1 - look at the sizes and use.
you can get the hooker from jegs for about 320.00 plus shipping but if you look around you can get it for 252.00 plus shipping. http://ls1tech.com/forums/ls1-domest...s/t-72528.html
you can get the mag for 317.00 (ok 316.68) and shipping is free. http://banditexhaust.com/catalog/pro...roducts_id=450

i just ordered the stainless system - the mag.
dont get me wrong i like hooker headers, got a set of 2055.
but im going with mag cat and cat-back system.
