First things first, order up you a Magnaflow 3" tandam style X junction. then take it to a muffler shop and ahve it fitted. Id do you up something but I dont have access to a lift and you may still be butthurt about the teasing that went on.

Lanes does do good work. I'm sure he'd have some fun workin on a Z06, not sure how many he's done. May be able to work out a deal if he hasn't done one yet for testing and such? Who knows, worth a shot. Lane uses Dr Gas X's by the way.

Yes but he needs the tandom style and I think the DR gas ones are too wide in the 3" version.

lol MY car doesn't have a turbo on it yet. I'm lookin forward to Phamspeed makin an LT1 kit. My car is a 1997 Z28. Don't think there are many other loud purple ones drivin around Arlington. I'm in South Arlington. You'll usually see me by the lake area.

But I've heard about his Lane guy and I ran into an older man in a TA that sounded great and he said he had a Lanes exhaust set-up. So where is his shop?

I'm not sure but I'd want a single pipe cuz I plan to go single turbo and don't want to have to redo EVERYTHING. I still plan on gettin some Hooker LT's for now though. Isn't 4" a little big?

One thing you will learn is that you can not over exhaust a ls1...I can build that setup nicely too....Tuck it up nice and high and nice hangers that dont break. Let me know. We'll do it up nice in my "shop"
