I had them long ago with a DT Catback and they sounded very good to me.

For the price, they are a good buy imho.

Perhaps Stacy can post up a video and his thoughts.

I haven't heard many Camaros with headers or aftermarket exhaust, so the only thing I really have to go off of is how the car sounded before and after. I think it is a huge improvement, it sounds great, but it's not too loud - I like it that way. The car sounds great, runs great, and pulls great. Big improvement from just a CAI. I'll try to get a video clip posted.

I'm hunting for a new project if anyone has any leads! Looking for a 3rd or 4th gen cheap. might even look at a T/A. Body would be more important than motor. Anyone have a roller up for grabs? Interested in a vinyl wrap for your car? Might work out a trade....

I have that '99 Formula still Phil...

Might need a little more than you're lookin to do on it but. It has a title too.

Forgot all about that one. I don't think I have actually seen it? Shoot me a pic if you have one already. If not, I can check it out next time I stop by. I'll bring my piggy bank.

If you don't get on the ball, I may drag your SS out from under that tarp.....

Its been hit in the rear. Would need some rear quarter messaging and a bumper cover. Hit right below the tailights and didn't even mess those up. Was a really clean car but it's missing some parts now. LOL

That car was purchased for the strict intentions of using as a parts car for said SS under tarp. I needed some crap off it and ended up selling the entire interior minus headliner and door panels. But the shell and some added items are there.

Had some fun today and yesterday on the rollers....
