I consider Exhaust a Cat-back at minimum..

A lid..maybe 5hp if tuned..it just helps with Air Flow.

I agree merv... I wouldnt have a problem swapping one out every couple years if it was not in such a poor location. I got a bad taste in my mouth right now over the opti swap this weekend lol, forgive me. Didn't nascar run a distributor like the opti for a while too?

Dude your car is stock, but its factory modded. You have a 345hp car with all the SLP options. I bet you can even walk a Z28 LS1 of the same year as your car.

long live the opti!

has your opti gone through puberty yet?
