That car is a lot of fun by the way. Love the Fbod but I definetly see a TT Vette in my future.

Zombie, that kit is not for you guys that live in the getto . By the way the filters are way up out of the way on the Vette kit, higher then stock up in the rear facia. The filters are up about as high as the license plate.

all this talk about stealing is pointless, anyone can just about do anything if they put there mind to it.....

It doenst take much to rip a hood off a car and remove a motor before sunrise. Or even while your at work before your lunch break. I know its all fun and games, but im abit bitter because my ride keeps getting vandalized..about 4 hits in the past two months!!

Anyways, that kit looks good, would like to see how much you would need ot boost to really make her as efficient as a front mounted tt kit. Will say this, when on the throttle, it must sound like a jet or the batmobile!! (the one with the joker and michael keaton)

i like it.....lets see a vid...please!!!

Yah guys pay attention Zombie is one of the few running the **** out of his STS right now.


I think it will produce some nice numbers, 2 of those little buggers spool up nice and quick I bet.

Brady, can we see how the pipes route?

You can see the dual pipes coming up under the K member to go in the intercooler but hey there aren't any pipes under the car. This is one of those cool nw pipeless STS systems.

Actually I think the pipes route up inside the rocker panels.

It does sound like the bat mobile, nice V8 sound with a pair of turbines for good measure.

Nifty.

I know it keeps cost down but I wish they would bend the pipes and not just slash cut 45's, that has to hurt flow a bit, but probably not enough to make much of a diff I guess???

Just being picky

Ha ha, I just thought the same thing when I saw those 45*'s.

Also, those pipes running forward look to be only 1 1/2", what size are they?
