I will eventually have true duals. But for the time being this catback fits everything I need. Especially the fact it's relatively quiet with all that air moving out of it.

It's putting down 450rwhp & 425rwtq... limiting factor is currently the stock TB and an LS6 intake. Going 90/90 as soon as I get some more dough to blow. With 10.2:1 compression, it's setup for a "low" amount of boost. 7-8psi.

At least that is the eventual plan!

It's an iron block from Texas Speed. Running AFR 205 heads (because I had them already, otherwise would've went 225s), 244/248 cam @ 115lsa, 42# injectors, 255LPH racetronix pump, etc. Exhaust is composed of Pacesetter LTs, TSP 3" ORY, and then the hooker catback!

Yeah! A red one, lowered, with 18" Enkei wheels!

That'd be me!! Small world!!

Sounds like a pretty tame cam you've got there, happen to have the specs?

It's a 244/248 .612/.615 115lsa cam. I went for the 115 just for that "tame" sound.

Man, everyone is running that cam. I guess I'm gonna be a bit different with my custom FMS cam... higher lift on a lower LSA

Yes, I'm bringing this up from the dead b/c I'm almost sold on this exhaust system. Can you post and clips from inside the car when cruising and also when banging through gears? I'd appreciate it.
