Default Heads, Cam and GMMG

Finally made a clip of my car. I wanted to quiet it down a little bit, so I welded a dynomax bullet into the I-pipe. It sounds better now, and is a little bit more quiet at cruise speeds. The bullet muffler took most of the rasp out, and gave it a deeper and more refined tone. It is still loud at WOT though.

Thanks for the kind words guys! It was tuned on the road with hp tuners, and I haven't had a chance to dyno it yet. Yeah, I knew it wasn't going to be quiet lol. The only reason I'm trying to tone it down a little bit, is because I got pulled over and had to show the cop my "illegal mods." I almost had my car impounded for not having CARB tags.

I don't blame you for not wanting to deal with all the smog crap nowdays. Sometimes I wish I would have left the shorty headers on, and went with the CheaTR cam.
