Bleh, you better find me some other door panels there is no way I'm putting those gay red ones on the camaro.

FYI I have a 4" exhaust, Dynomax bullet, and I think it sounds like a truck. So we are putting on a 4" Splitflow muffler that will be under the passenger side, so the exhaust will be a lot shorter. But I'm keeping the other pipe so I can try different setups.

At least he didn't video on the dyno Look like you could use some new blades. Must seem nice to finally have it up and running.

As you can see it's raining. It's raining pretty good



Good to see the car out. Sounds like we both need to get to the track soon. Let me know when you're going and I'll meet you there. We can have some turbo fun.
