Installed SS Stainless Works CA11CB Catback
After wasting a lot of money experimenting with different mufflers etc. and watching all the threads on here I made my final purchase. I think. I hook-up with Juiced on Saturday, got the Camaro5 discount with free shipping and boom the FedX guy plopped them on my driveway this morning.
It was my first purchase with Juiced and won't be my last. Everything arrived in great shape and very well packed. I removed my old system this morning while waiting and the timing was perfect. I'll post a short video and a couple of pictures soon as they upload. It was a pretty easy install with my car on jack stands and I admit I'll be a little sore tomorrow. But it was worth it. It's a little louder than I expected mainly due to the cam I think but It's the best sound I've heard to date. Sounds best with headphones. Update: I just took a short 5 mile ride and it sounds really good in the car, no drone but robust Yeah, I'm probably going to get in trouble.

Nice sound! Mine won't have the cam or the LT headers but I will be going with the same exhaust and HF cats. Minus the awesome loping I'm hearing, I'm hoping to get the same kind of sound.

slower than you

I have this system on my car and absolutely love it (actually, i wouldn't mind it being a bit louder, lol). I did the install myself, and did a passable job, but did bring it to a shop to have everything aligned correctly and a few spot welds here and there. It's absolutely perfect now.

Sounds good. I am looking at GPI VVT cam and circle stall converter now. I see you have them. Gives me an idea of how mine will sound since I have the same exhaust setup.

Then I had a local shop do the install and Labor was around $1900 and that included sending the heads out to be done, providing and installing the trans cooler hard plumbing it in no hose clamps, and also buying and installing the Circle-D converter, installing a rerouting kit for the heater hoses. And I probably for got something. Total $2,800 So all in around $4,800 plus another $1,300 for Kooks headers & HF cats, and $935 for the SW catback system. $7,000 total. |
