Are those CATS or somekind of small Mufflers?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but right past the H-pipe of where the equlizer is I see two bullet style mufflers. Just painted black with the rest of the piping.

I just had Lane's do a 3" X-pipe into flo-pro twisters and it sounds very nice! It's a nice change from the SLP LM drone. I'll get some clips as soon as the car is tuned.

RGS, how hard is that setup to fab up? loud in the car? are those z28 tips?

FLPs/no cats/SLP 2OTL. No rasp AT ALL. Growls like an MFer.

I have a 3 inch X setup with 16 inch dynomax bullets with turndowns at the axle and all is mandrel bent. The best sound i have yet to hear on a ls1 engine IMO and it's really a little quiter than the old mac Y with a cutout that i had until you drop the gas to the floor It's very deep at idle with the TSP 232/228 cam and turns heads everywhere i go I picked up .13 tenths and 1.5 mph over the Mac Y and cutout back to back weeks of testing. Needless to say my cam was being choked out by the Y and cutout! Just wished i had it done when i ran the time in my sig but i'll get a shot at it late in the year

The unpainted parts are the RT Cats. The mufflers are the vertical straight parts (If you look closely you can see the Chamberred muffler crimps) and those are indeed chrome Z28 style tips. They changed the tone of my exhaust but personally I liked how it made it sound.

Clearence was great when we first made it but after the heads and cam we didnt re-install it to the same height. We left it a little lower so the tips wouldnt hit the rocker panel and that ended up lowering the rest of the set up. I still dont have it tuned (Im not really driving it.) so when I start her up they bang slightly but once it finds the idle they dont bang anymore.

If I load up my car with 4 people (Which I cant recall the last time I did) then they scrape if Im not careful. The few times Ive driven her lately I havent scraped on anything even with it being lower than before. Eventually we'll fix it to so that they tips dont bang and the rest of the exhaust is tucked up neatly so that it wont cause any problems.

got any sound clips/ video? is it lowered? how is the ground clearance? i have heard alot that side exit exhaust is just too low for daily driving.

Will that side exit allow for subframe connectors?

If not, then IMO SFCs are far more
important than exhaust exits.

Yeah I have 1 sound clip that I took right after I installed the cam. Who told you that side exhaust would be too low for daily driving? Did they have it on their cars? I'm sure more than likely they knew a guy whose friend lived next door to a guy whose sister knows a girl who went out with a guy that once met a girl whose cousin had it on his car and the side exhaust was too low right? It was probably the same person who told me that side exhaust was illegal and that I'd get pulled over the first day for having it and because my car was too loud.

Ive had it for over a year and a half and only scraped twice. The first time I had 4 people in the car and was going up a step driveway. The second time I was going down somewhere I shouldnt have been going.

Depends on the SFCs. I'm getting a set installed (One of these days) that are barely visable when you look underneath the car so theres no way they will interfere with my exhaust.

zchgla

na, i did a search on side exit exhaust and i read that alot. maybe the guy that did yours was really good? do you have any undercar pics?

Trans Am WS6 RGS

Yeah I read that a lot too. We actually spent more time on it than necessary just to make sure it was perfect, and it was. Even now its on there pretty good just not tucked away as nice as before.

Send that sound clip and the pictures to me, I'll host them for you. chad@dodds.cc

zchgla

did an exhaust shop do it? would most exhaust shops be able to tuck it away as nicely as they did yours?

Trans Am WS6 RGS

LS1SOUNDS: I'll try and remember to email it to you once I get home.

zchgla: My friend and I custom made it. And I highly doubt a shop would take as much time trying to perfect it for you. Unless of course you dont mind getting charged an arm and a leg.

Sounds great! I'm just getting ready to do some long-overdue updates to the site.
