Default Finally got the full exhaust installed

Well it's finally done. I'd bought Pacesetter LT's and ORY, and a Magnaflow Catback a couple months ago, but I'd broken my ankle and couldn't get around good enough to install them Myself so my brother-in-law stepped in and did it for me. It's amazing. I've just been running a cutout with my 224/228 591/591 cam and its been holding it back so much. Got it out on the highway this morning and it runs to 70 in no time flat. I'm pretty sure the tune that was made for it was sopposed to be with Headers but the guy that previously had the car never got around to it. It's amazing was a breathable exhaust can do for an LSX.

I just had some Pacesetter LT's installed this weekend, and you are right, its amazing what a full exhaust will do to these cars. No dyno numbers yet, but MUCH more responsive.
