Thumbs up My TA vs CTS-V

Short clip of my TA Vs a CTS-V. Both 40 rolls, up to 140. What do you all think?

Hey what all bolt ons do you have? I have been really thinking about getting a V2 cam soon, and really trying to get really close to your numbers. Nice kill.

I wouldn't put too much into the numbers it made, It's probably closer to 410/390. It was dynod on a happy dyno. But either way, it still pulls hard for what it is. Boltons are just a lid, smooth bellows, and full exhaust. 1 5/8th Hedman headers, ORY, cutout, Hooker Aero Chamber catback.

Because no one can hear honks over my exhaust, I can't even hear my own honks.

That wasn't my voice screaming. And yes, screaming voices are a lot louder than honks, at least my honk.
