Default Made my day!

Well I finaly have a kill story. I was heading down 225 heading west (Houston TX) last week, and a blue 5.0 Mustang dark tinted windows, runs up behind me realy fast and pulls beside me and nails it. Well I saw the car coming but did not exspect it to wana race. But when it went i followed, and quickly passed it. Im in an 04 C5 (Grey) w/ LT HFcats and a small cam. Well i run into trafic and the Mustang shoots by, and as soon as trafic clears i open my cut outs and catch up to the Mustang. I know the cutouts dont make me faster, but they sure are fun. As soon as i get beside the Mustang , again it takes off. This time I blow by it . No big deal right? Well when the car catches up again and SHE rolls down HER window and gives me the thumbs up! I wave back and she exits off twards the beltway.

Dam, If i new she was so cute i would have let her win, lol. Or at least stayed beside her longer.

I know it is not much of a kill story , but i dont drive the car every day, and so i dont have the oportunity to race much. But what was awsome is that there are some ladies here in Texas that like to run their cars.

So whomever you are in that Mustang, thanks for making my day.

exhaust valve. either manual or remote, to dump the exhaust right after the header,
flows more freely and is loud as crap.

Thats awesome. Chicks like that probably have to fend us off with a stick. A 6-7 out of 10 becomes an easy 8-8.5 if she is not a bitch and likes cars.

Sorry for the LALALALALA! , but the cutouts don't really make a difference in performance? I thought it would be more like running no cat-back?

depends how well your catback flows. If you have a good flowing exhaust, it may make a few HP difference, not enough to matter.

My ex has a 99 Corbra (modded) and a GSXR 750 and without a doubt one of the hottest girls I have dated/seen. To bad she was a royal B*TCH 99% of the time.

So +1 for hot chicks into fast cars. And nice kill.

I have a pair of 3" electric cut outs. They dump the exhaust so when the "valves" are open it is like runing open headers. I have Kooks LT and x-pipe, but i have the factory cat back, so when they are open it is LOUD, but quiet as a mouse when closed.
