My results were back to back. Same tuner, no other change other than exhaust and on my set up I went from Pacesetter long tubes and a 3" dual x pipe system to the 1-7/8" Blackheart headers and Blackheart exhaust.

Previous numbers were 630/534 vs new numbers of 614/540

To have a system that has a classy sound at partial throttle and rowdy at wot topped off with amazing ground clearance for a lowered car I was more than pleased with the results.

My results are going to have to wait a year. My deployment date snuck up on me really quick and I didn't get the car back on the dyno before I leave tomorrow.

Has anyone attempted to adapt Corsa Clone tips to the system? I'm not a fan of the single wall tips that come with the system so i'm going to have a shop fit a pair of 4 inch Corsa clones. Just curious if anyone else has successfully done it.

I'm currently working on doing this, just haven't had much time lately to do it. My idea is to basically make a short "s" pipe at the end of the muffler. I have one side tacked up and need to work on the other side still.

My other thought was to chop the end of the corsa clone double wall tip portion off and adapt it to the hooker tip,

I just got a kit from Summit Racing yesterday and I believe I have this same issue. I will double check my parts later today.

Ok, I laid out my kit earlier today. The collector extension pipes are on the incorrect sides in this picture but I am missing the driver side bend which connects to the x pipe. Summit Racing will be calling Holley after this weekend. Hopefully this can get resolved fairly soon.

Yep. That was the same pipe that I was missing. Makes me wonder how often this happens. I ordered my system directly from Holley so i was in direct contact with them on the issue. They were able to resolve it pretty quickly though.

Does anyone know if this kit will fit a car with the Watts setup? I'd really like to ditch my single setup and go with this but from the pics I'm thinking it's not gonna fit.

I'm wondering the same thing, I think I'll probably go with it and find out. I have the Fays2 Watt's, which has less room than the MWC, but I figure I can modify the bar if I need to.

If someone wants to send me their watts link I can try it out and see if it fits as long as its just a bolt on part, if anyone is interested PM me and we can figure out the details.

In regards to the Watts link. I have seen pics on the site here with a Fays2 Watts Link set up clearing 3" true duals. I have one waiting in the garage. I simply haven't had time to install it yet. When I do I'll report back with pics.

Did we ever determine if a Watts works with this?
