I agree that this system is an awesome setup...It is a great sound and a great quality.

I ordered a bunch of them....and I must say I am jealous that yours is almost there. I expect mine to show up this week, but WOW monday would be awesome!!

Have fun with it!!

LUCK!!!

I like the factory exhaust, if I'm being honest here...for it's tame-ness at crusing speeds, and then it gets loud when you step on it. But I want something that'll rumble and hit me deep in the chest with sound waves like my father's car at idle...

Depending on the end-result, I may look at this.

It's here!

As promised... Got this installed this afternoon!

So. A few pics and a vid of course!



Finishing touches...



And a close up...



And last but not least the vid!


So far so good. I love the deep sound this full 3inch catback system makes. On the highway at 70 its as quite as stock but between gears it gives you the great Flowmaster sound. While slowing down or down shifting you get a nice little burble out of this big beast of an LS3.

Thanks American Racing Technology for the install!

Thanks for sharing, sounds good. How do you like it? how do you think this will sound for the L99 (auto)? im going to be ordering it soon. Do the tips noticeably stick out? more than the stock tips? id rather them be flush. Is it worth buying?
