Stainless works retro chambered catback 2014

Just installed my SW retro chambered cat back exhaust! First non cosmetic mod!
Sounds great, sooo much better than the stock system.
Cant wait to get the LT headers w/o cats on. Gonna wake up the neighbours!
I want to get use to driving the car stock first so I really feel the difference. But its hard just looking at all the boxes of mods!
Go away winter!
Oh, and thank you Apex for the info and guidance about this system!
Heres a idle clip!

Great sounding exhaust. It was the sound I was looking for.

I went catless but it makes such a sweet sound. My buddy with a stock ZL1 is actually jealous of my exhaust now.

As an added bonus, the fast n furious wannabes don't constantly pester me anymore (usually).

Welcome to the SW club! It is insane after you put headers on as well. The sound at WOT will make your pants bulge.

I bet people in your area are not accustomed to hearing that kind of rumble. Glad you are happy with it. Thank you for your order.

And here is some assistance with the embed.

Thanks!
No, me and my best friend with a vette c6 ls3 are kind of unique here in a town with mostly turbo m3 and m5 and ALOT of volvo 5cyl turbos.

And the install was so easy. The dealer wanted $570 for the install, no way! Me and my friend did it on a rented lift in an hour. Four bolts four hangers and two clamps, stock system gone and then the SW system clamps on in sections. Super easy!

The hills are alive with the sound of American muscle.

Haha. Not quite yet though. There's still salt on the roads and sub zero temperatures at night. But soon, very soon i will make everyone aware of the sound! And this summer I'm going on a roadtrip cross europe and then I'll be sure to let the Von Trapps in Austria get a taste of it also!

Congratulations on your SW retro chamber install.

Love the sound of mine, add in CAI and LTs and you have an incredible sound. I was with a group of friends (couples) and they all wanted me to start the Camaro so they could listen to the rumble.

Be sure to share lots of pics during your Euro road trip, wish I could be there with you. What grades of gasoline will be available to you?
