a new ls1 miata So I got tired of my turboed miata and am now in the process of putting in a '02 Camaro LS1/T56 with the ls6 intake.
I am using racingconcepts.net's kit for mounting, a ford 8.8 diff with 3.73 gears. I hope to have it running by end of the year.
I plan on doing a small writeup and have tons of pictures that i will put on my site (that doesn't exist yet). There will be some videos too. I can't wait, its going to be sick.

I've been to ls1sounds, I don't want anything that drones a lot or that is super loud (i have to do 800+ mile treks a couple or more times a year). The only problem is that exhaust sound is super subjective as is "loud". And its hard to judge a exhaust solely by video. I can handle noise but I don't want anything annoying.
Whats your opinion on exhaust?

So i've read up a little more. Looks like I might be going magnaflow. I was torn between flowmasters and magnaflows before. I am calling buster tomorrow to see what he wants as far as price. I have headers, just need the rest.

It is possible, the LS7 is the same overall size as the LS1. Just cost lots more $$$. It would be hard to find room for the dry-sump tank, might have to switch it to wet-sump or make a custom dry-sump tank.
There is a speed shop here that has a LS7 powered Miata. One of the badest rides I've ever seen!!! BTW welcome....... and would love to see some vids of that thing. LSX swap in tiny cars are AWSOME!!

Custom exhaust LS1 Miata, This is Jason with Enthuzacar. We do miata exhaust systems and are located in Kennesaw.
I have been looking to design a exhaust for the LS1 swap. Let me know if you are interested in allowing me to use your car for a "test" prototype in return for a deeply discounted custom mandrel bent exhaust system. Call or e-mail anytime. (404)310-3302 jason@enthuzacar.com
