Man I'm jealous of your car in red, it looks f'n sick. Wish I would've found a red one! Exhaust sounds good. Did you get rid of the hooker mufflers?

That does sound really good, do you still have the resonator on it? From what I've heard the MF catback always seems to be louder on the GXP's than it does the Imp or Monte SS's, wonder why that is. Maybe it's just my imagination.

Yep the resonator is still on, and I will be keeping it on. I will be taking the car to the shop soon to have the exhaust checked and weld them, I hate the clamps.

Not sure if its the angle of your shots but the tips don't look centered? Good luck with your new ride!

Yeah there not centered, It goes into the shop in 2 weeks to have the exhaust fixed and welded.

Cardomain sucks a$$...set up a free hosting account at Photobucket and post pics from there. Who needs to deal with all of the tools at CD on a daily basis? :eyes:

Ah, the good 'ol ass dyno. When you haven't done before/after dyno runs after a modification, but you can feel that when you nail the throttle on the street, the car throws your ass into the seats a little harder... so you know you're making more power even though it's not quantified via a "true" dyno.

the tips stick out way too far on the magnaflow.

lol, yeah they do stick out far. When I go on my vacation next year in the summer I will be taking my car to a muffler shop and have it put on right and welded. The tips are pushed in all the way.

I had the muffler shop cut about 1/2" off the inlets to the tips because mine were sticking out a lot too. Best $3 I ever spent.

Thanks, is that the stock GXP tips you have on?

Yes hate em want those Magnaflow ones but I don't think you can buy them without the catback system. Actually picked up set of the discontinued SLP tips that fit in the bumper cutout (and deleting the Magnaflows for a single Classic Chambered muffler like they use on the Cobras). I'm putting that where the res use to be. Get you a soundbite when it's done.
