That's a sharp looking G8 you got there. I just installed Solo axlebacks and they sound great. They're not too loud but have a good muscle car sound. Next I want to install Kooks mid length headers that come with high flow cats. That should allow the motor to breathe better plus make it slightly louder since the factory cats are restrictive. Enjoy your new ride!

Nice pick up. I miss my SBM G8 all the time. Definitely go with headers, intake, and tune first. That will make it sound nice and it will be way more fun to drive.

SBM G8's are the fastest but I have a biased opinion
Oh, VMR v710's in hyper silver are THE BEST rims for this car....

Hey Rocket, killer G8. Also, we might be seeing you soon as we are planning on moving to the Pensacola area in a couple of months. Wife wants to go to Pace or Navarre. I am trying to secure employment before the wife's employer relocates us.

Highly recommend Navarre over Pace as it will put you fairly close to Destin and there is a lot more to do. If you don't own a boat or know someone that does, drinking and smoking are the most fun you will have out here LOL.

The more I drive it, the more I like it. I am excited to start modding it soon.
