Default Thanks GMMG...

for ruining my gas mileage! My car sounds so nice I hardly ever go into 6th gear because it sounds sooo nice in 5th gear, especially against a divider

Also, thanks GMMG for making people scared to race me seriously since I've put GMMG on my car no one wants to go anymore!

I was behind this GT stang that said stalker on the bumper with lame silver vinyls all over it and like an extra spoiler over the roof. figured id try him. i get in front of him and he tries to follow me on the backroads... can't keep up.

Get to an intersection that leads to the highway for a great race, and he goes the other way.

I need to get a cutout so I can scare people away like that. I do like the sound of my 2OTL though.

I catch myself staying in 5th instead of using 6th like I should.

Yes you do! Go DMH Electric it's the only way to go. I love mine.

To the OP, the GMMG is a bad *** set up. Wish I had one.

Gain HP, yes. Y pipe, I wouldn't put it in the Y-pipe, that would require 2. Put it in the I-pipe pf the catback.

You guys will love it even more with headers. Quiet until 2k then it just opens up. I always find myself going WOT going under bridges just to see how loud it is. The best so far is on the highway in 6th gear doing 70 while giving it a little bit of gas. Produces this amazing deep low pitched growl.
