I wonder if they sell just the muffler? I love my SLP D/D, but this sounds really really good. I would be interested in just swapping in the muffler and giving it a shot.

Sounds great. I have magnaflow and the passenger side pipe sticks out about an inch farther than the driver's side.

You need to get under there and adjust some things then. Every Magnaflow system I have owned has lined up perfectly. Anyone who has issues needs only minor adjusting

Do they sell just the pipe. I just need the pipe from the Y to the muffler.

Check in Summit for Dynomax exhaust components for our cars. They carry the I-pipe and over-the-axle pipe in aluminized steel. They're nice pieces that are reasonably priced when you need individual replacement parts.

Will this system bolt up to the stock system in a 02 T/A convertible? Wonder if it's a good first step along with the breather to gaining some performance out of the car.

Raise, I have seen you around town I am sure. Are you ever at the Jenro meets?

I drive the red T/A with out a black hood. There are two around here with hoods, one is a WS6 hood, and the other is the Superhawk (member he and a friend).

Car sounds great!

I dont go to Jenro's that often. I got o Bass Pro in Hampton pretty often though. There's always a good turn out there. I'm not sure if they will be holding it there anymore though. Anyway, what do you mean you have the red t/a without the black hood? Why would you have a black hood on a red car? You should look me up sometime before you head out to a gathering. IO live close to Pembroke Mall. Where are you at? By the way, if you see Raise on the license plate, that's me

There are two black primered cars running around. I assume due to funds on a paint job. I thought I remember seeing you at Jenro's a couple of time. Didn't catch the license plate however. Do you have a young daugher ( by that I mean 10 years or less)? There was a guy at Jenro's who was your build there with a child in the car both times I saw him. There have only been two red T/A's at the meet. Mine and a friends. I have recently seen a red T/A with a ws6 hood on S. Independence twice.

I live right near you. I live by TCC on Princess Anne. Hit me up this weekend if you want to go for a cruise. I love any reason to take the car out. And especially love rolling aroung with fellow f body owners.

I am one of the only f body owners with ZR1 wheels around here. Or so that I have seen so far.

Pm me a number if you would like to meet this weekend. We had a dyno day set up but couldn't get 20 cars. We had about half or so. If you know any LSx vehicles that want to do a meet and greet dyno day please let me know.

I lived in Hampton a few months ago before VB, Bass Pro hasn't been a meet for the f bodies for a few months now.
