thought I'd post an update...went to the track today to run temps were in the low 50's here in NC on the coast. My car has been a consistent 11.64 for about the past oh say at least 8-10 months if not year. First run out was an 11.48 w/1.59 60ft time @119 mph and the best of the day ended up being an 11.30 @ 120.63 w/1.57 60ft thats alot for an exhaust if you ask me!

Very nice, very nice. I just read back thru 6 pages or so but can't find what headers you had before. I think you had the SLP LM right for a catback right? Looking for exactly what changed.

I believe he had coated Pacesetter 1 3/4" headers with ory and you are correct LM1 catback. Setup changed to Kooks headers (not sure what size) and Kooks true duals. Hope you don't mind me answering for you Steve O

I am astonished that a company took the initiative to build ****-all for a community full of whiners and cheap skates (and hack-job rednecks with low comprehension skills); much less something of this quality. If you don't like it and you think you can do better, go right ahead.

While this might not suit my needs I'd be DAMN proud to have this on my (wife's) car.

I applaud the folks at Kooks.

I hope all is well for you and your wife in Ottawa. We miss you at the events, the GN was always very entertaining!

Ya, I'm with you guys. Kooks is known for there quality and sure show it with this new exhaust. Sure it is expensive and you are partially paying for the name but they've put alot of blood, sweat and tears to get where they are now today.

Nice Work Kooks!
