Big Props To Mike @Icon Autosports ~ Awesome Job
First and foremost BIG THANKS to Mike Pabon @Icon Autosports, he does FIRST CLASS work , vids are a little dark and do it no justice sound wise, but man talk about a BIG difference in how she runs, no more baby cam . I'll have it early next week sometime, have a few other goodies going in .
This is straight through the Borla (which is coming off for true-duals), I'll get some vids of it running with the dual cutouts open next week. Then time for the track
3/16/07 Update: Just got home, been driving around breaking in the new 9" and cam, couple updated vids from today. Mike finished it early so was able to take delivery this evening afterall, that's one hard worker! He got the 9" aligned, rear QA1s relocated, pinion angle set right, lowered the rear springs (1" now Vs. 4"), height set for drag all around, car professionally leveled, etc, etc. I had to get one final video of the old Borla, comes off 7am in the morning for xpipe, true duals and I'm thinking Dynomax Race Mufflers, not sure just yet...but I'm keeping my favorite..the dual cutouts.
(lol gotta love the Borla SHOTGUN BLAST at the end of the driveway)

Couple pics at Barnes & Nobles in Clear Lake tonight.
Sun 3/18/07 Update: TRUE DUALS BABY!!! Ditched the Borla after 5 yrs she now has true-duals, DynoMax ss Xpipe w/DynoMax Race Mufflers. For the Houston locals Eric @LoneStar Muffler custom fit the setup, he does great work!

Badass and congrats Brett, I agree Mike does ridiculously outstanding work. My buddy said he saw your car up there last night when he was picking mine up for me. What numbers and times are you hoping for and did you ever decide on what true dual system to go with?

Using most of my KOOKS stainless custom Ypipe, custom fitting a stainless Xpipe under the BMR TrakPak and dumping it with some Borla race mufflers or Bullits, not sure on the mufflers yet.
Once I get out of college and actually have money my plan will be to catch and outdo your lt1 lol
