"Now it sounds like a man's car" Quote of the year!

So once I got done installing my all stainless XSPower exhaust system (1 7/8" headers, 3" off road x pipe, 3" mufflers http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=138007) I started it up for my wife. I was worried she would not like the way it sounded and she wouldn't want to ride in it. I began to have flash backs of my 98 SS that she never wanted to ride in because it was too "race carish".

The words that came out of her mouth put the biggest grin on my face! She listened to it and said, "now it sounds like a man's car"!

Here is a quick clip, sorry about the crappy quality, it's from my phone and for some reason the audio is really quiet.

Is this a custom set-up or are we able to buy this kit somewhere?

Sounds awesome. I like the 3rd or so throttle blip when it blows some of the garage floor crap around.
