skip the mini tub and do some TPE flares!

Car is looking and sounding good man.

I'm still on the fence about ditching the Ti or not. I've heard borlas drone.

I swear by Borla Stingers. Had them on my last z06 and it was a no brainer on this one. Lot's people love the GHL Bullets, but the Borlas are not that bad for drone and they do have the best WOT note. The GHLs have that good crack too it at idle but it makes it sound like a "muscle car", rather than a more exotic sound that the Borla gives. Ditch the Ti's for 350 bucks and you can find used Borla system often. I would LOVE to do the TPE flares, but dont know how much it would cost for the parts, fabrication, paint, etc. I would imagine 2k or so.

I think OP decided to move to a 200 for this.

Other than that, just enjoying it.

What is the word brother. How is the Z06 treating you? Let me know when you want to sell the heads and I will set money aside for that day. Still looking out for you on that "thing" by the way.

LOL I take it you decided to keep this monster huh? She definitely is loud and looks good! I also see you put up some old pics of the Vette because I saw Chucks Mustang I believe. Let me know when she's complete, I'm ordering some more parts for mine not power adders just finally getting around to the suspension aspect of it. You should try and go to the Rod Run this year you never know what you might find or who might try and buy that vette of yours.

For the record, the car never had a 200 hit on it. It stayed at 150 and only sprayed a couple of times with the 150.
