Default [Videos] Stock Idle vs G5X2 H/C Package (wow!)

Wow! I decided to compare the videos I shot before I installed my G5X2 H/C package with a few I shot this evening. I knew my car sounded good, but compared to what it was before the difference is amazing! I rarely listen to my stereo anymore because I love the way my car sounds and drives now. The feeling of that much power and torque under my butt is awsome!

Stock Idle with just Corsa Indy's
(notice the jackstands, I started pulling it apart just minutes after the video)

Idle - After H/C Package, G5X2, FLP Headers, FLP High Flow Cats, Corsa Indy's

Revving - After H/C Package, G5X2, FLP Headers, FLP High Flow Cats, Corsa Indy's
(My 12 year old son is behind the wheel, he loves it as much as I do!)

Top-Fule Dragster! Thats what I said when I first fired it up. It is even louder and has more of a raspy popping sound when I take off the cats and install the off-road pipes.

I have a M6 and I drive it any day the sun is shining. Driving around town is not a problem except when I pull in somewhere and start talking to people about whats under the hood, its kind of like a magnet and I love every minute of it. I have no problems with stalling, surging or anything of that nature at all. Now if I had to drive it everyday to work and back it would cost me a fortune because I can't keep my foot out of it!

Sounds mean like the rail dragsters. I guess you are not going for the sleeper effect.

As far as the MPG, I wouldn't know. As I stated before, I can't keep my foot out of it so I know its gone down the tubes. I need to take a road trip and see what I get. I did however look the other day and the computer said (Avg. 17.8 mpg).

I want to hear you rev it and have someone in the ccar with the top down then get on it. That sounds soo sweet.

I'm impressed! Lower the idle about 200 rpm.

Ask and you shall receive!
Here is one with my 12 year old son in the drivers seat revving it a bit. My digital camera kind of cuts down the volume when it get real loud so maybe I'll record one from farther away.
