Not me, I've got an SS. But I was just at the Mall a few minutes ago. Wished I could have seen it.

Those STS systems are really starting to make me wonder. They even offer financing on them too. Definitely something I could afford at a little under four grand. I'm just not so sure about that single exhaust tip. Wonder if there's a way to just dump the exhaust right there to avoid a single tip and a huge air filter poking out the back of my car?

Damnit...the more I read about this setup, the more it's making me want it. If I can get it to comply with either a MS3 or Torquer V.2 cam, this may be in the near future as well. I'll probably have to get some special "turbo cam" though. Sorry that I'm going way off topic, I'm just rambling on about my wishes.

Yea a custom-ground turbo cam would be the best way to go.

Just got my Incon twin turbo started last night. That 236/236 cam and twins growling/screaming out of an open y-pipe was that baddest sounding LS1 I've ever heard.

I still have to put the rest of the car together and do some tuning. I'll try to get a sound clip when I can.
