...so... I sold 'em (quick) 
...and....Iceman now enjoys them! 
He took me for a ride with them on his '95 and he had VERY little resonance. My '92 resonance was impossible. Can the resonance problem be (somehow?) year specific?
(enjoy 'em, Tim!)

just the two mufflers. if i'm not mistaken the 92-up already has 2 3/4 or 3" pipe already, so there is no need to upgrade from the cat back. the part number is i believe 15623. on the website go to the search box and enter the part #. don't forget the coupon!

I've never had a car with a modified exhaust before, so when I put the Magnaflows on my car, I had what I thought to be horrible resonance.
Then I realized what I was hearing was all the loose trim vibrating in the rear of the car. Two minutes with a screwdriver, tightening up the trim in the rear, solved the problem for me.

(LT1 system is Part Number is 15623)
The Hottexhaust.com website has layout that is difficult to navigate. Just type "corvette" in the search to find all of the Corvette muffler systems.
Make sure you use "vetteforum" as a coupon code to get your discount.
