Only problem is first cop that see's me is gonna smog ref me again, and I hate that $hit. On a lighter note guess who ordered a turbo today?

depends on how you're driving and how the cops are in your area, I have lt's, no cats a lil bigger cam and have had cops behind me with no problems. Even when I got a speeding ticket he didn't mention a thing to me about popping my hood. Just depends on your luck I guess.

Honestly this thing is loud. I've heard loud cars before, and this just cuts the f-ing cake. I think its the flowmaster super 40's that are making it extreme.

I got pulled over for 100+ on Green River comming off the freeway by CHP. His words, "I was watching for speeders at the top of the onramp when I heard you punch it. Almost got wiplash I turned around so fast."
Cam, no cats, and magnaflow. Did he check exhaust? Nope... didnt even give me a ticket. hahaha

Well I'm just testing them, need to see what they put down on the dyno. Compared with Kooks and Stainless works, they have an untapped market charging $1299+ for headers. PaceSetter has really stepped it up with good flanges, good connections, and good copper gaskets. With Mid-pipes and shipping for the GTO's it runs $568. This should drop the price of the competitors down, which of course will help everyone, except them. They have already made the profit, so now its time for the new guys to make some $$$ too.

Yeah its the first M6 LS2 GTO with STS kit, the other 6 are Automatics. I'll probably have to coat my Pace Setters with something really high temp. Some guy says they have a coating system that coats inside and out and temps to 1700 F. Anyone ever heard of it? The LT's will definately make more boost because of the extended flow.

jet hot makes a 2000 degree black coating, i was going to get it for the evo but the manifold alone was going to be $600, Downpipe was $200+ and the exhaust housing $160, it's alot of money it would be cheaper to buy a front mount turbo kit by the time you add in all the extras.
