Jus get your money back from those things you dont need like the headers etc and you will have more than enough to do it right if you really spend it wisely, good luck buddy

Default stealth counts

yeah, usually after they get their *** handed to them they want me to pull over so they can tell me wtr??? hahah. When it's a vette or porche it's priceless.
The whole system is hidden, still has lid over charge pipe, fake muffler over turbo. Intercooler faces own can't be seen. only give away under the hood is breather on the valve cover.

I want to see the fake muffler covering the turbo.
Would you mind showing that?
Great job on the engine bay.

Now you have to remember, from 30 feet you look under a Camaro and what do you expect to see? A silver muffler. Sure if you inspect it you can tell it's not, but pefople see what they expect to see, that is half the equation in Camoflauge!!! Actually it's some kind of Ford heat shield painted flat black and silver!
