Default What I've done so far

So I have some updates on the Camaro if you're interested, some videos and pictures.

Heres the exhaust video


Background on the car, bought this last year completely stock minus a strut tower brace and subframe connectors.

I recently installed the SLP Lid, smooth bellow, rerouted the coolant line to the TB, removed the MAF screen, and lightly ported my TB.





I added a Fuel pressure gauge and wideband gauge in as well



then i installed my TSP 1-7/8" LTs and TSP 3" dual exhaust. (i bought some 42lb injectors for when i get down to Ft. Worth and get a trickflow heads kit)





relocated the battery, then adding a system because the stock one was horrible. I added the 160 amp truck alternator because the stock one was failing and i needed the juice. here are some of those pictures.
fans were added because the amp under this one was causing too much heat.




shortened the shifter until i get a MGW


and finally the final product so far




Let me know what you think so far!

Very interesting angle for the car ride. I kept waiting for one of the tips to kiss the ground and spark. Sounds pretty good!

Very nice! Maybe it's the angle of your pics, but to me it looks like the car lowered a tad

as far as i know its still stock. it does have bilstein shocks. from what ive heard not all camaros came with that. it was a little lower in the rear because the battery, sub, amps and muffler but it leveled out pretty well after i took the exhaust out.
