Thx 10RsCamaro and Black10. I'm having fun with her for now since the weather is nice here in Atlanta before I lose her for a few weeks. This is the most I've driven the car since I bought her. Slapping on my JBA headers and Tune today or tomorrow. Then taking her to Vengeance for a before dyno pull. Then will do the same when I get her back from RX Perf. even tho they dyno they builds also. But I want to see how it looks on my goto dyno.

Well installed the headers yesterday and this morning going to load up my tune. O and I started the car and ran it for like a mile with everything removed except the stock headers. Car sounds like poop with straight exhaust out set up. Getting it dyno'd Monday, will post the numbers. Then off to RX the 26th. Still trying to determine if I should add some extra goodies Tracy may have.

Thanks for sharing Tracy it's looking good! I see the SC belt doesn't have far to stretch to reach the pulley. That's nice.

Well got the car tuned and headers installed running good and strong now. These were all my left over parts. As you can see I removed the second smaller cats. I bout my headers with a second set of cats from a C5 member so I didn't have to weld anything. But still had everything welded just to be secure.

I found out many years ago (I make it seem like I'm old lol, only 32 lol) when I first hit the car scene that there is 2 types of Royal Purple. One is garbage and one isn't. This is how you can tell if you getting ripped off. Royal Purple is made in the USA so check the bottle. The trash kind is made overseas and is a water down version. Try and do the fluid changes yourself cause some shops or whatever may go the cheap route but charge you for the real stuff.
