G-force is closest to me and i have only heard good things

they did the electric cutout on my old z28 and it lasted longer than the car

EDIT: i will also be going to them during the summer for my LTs, ORY, lowering, maybe nitrous or small cam swap, and a dynotune

its a small y-pipe on the exhaust before the muffler that opens your exhaust, but you can close it so your street legal and not crazy loud

this site has a good diagram

I think that someone is blowing smoke up your ***. Any good exaust shop shoud be able to adapt what ever cat back you have to your CME. I could be wrong because I have never looked under a car with CME but I cant imagine that a shop that knows what they are doing saying that it can't be done.

I kinda have that same issue. I want to put on an adjustable Borla on my CME, but I don't want to have to buy a complete cat-back only to replace a few pieces. I will propbably have to find a good exhaust shop that can fabricate what I need. Anyway, depending on your refund amount go with exhaust work, lid and a ported throttle body. If you look in the sponsor specials New Era I think has a special going on. And +1 for the G-force cam special if you can swing it.
