I am very sorry for any inconvenience that this may cause to you guys already in the show. This has been in the works for my son for quite a while, but was suppose to be for the weekend before Motorama. Just got changed yesterday. Again, I am sorry and quite upset.

Well look at it this way at least it wasn't for something bad. Always next year. At the end of this year car is going to go in trailer for the Motorama next year.

Thanks Spike, that helps some, but not enough. I was really looking forward to the show and more so being with everyone. Next year is so far away. There are other shows and events though.

Sorry to hear about the change in your plans! I know you were worried about it and sure enough Murphy's law reared it's ugly head! It's all about priorities though and your son is MUCH more important than any car show that's for sure! Enjoy your time with him and we will miss you at the show!

I bought the Magnaflow exhaust, only now since i installed LTH, does the car sounds like it has some balls.

I appreciate the insight!

Any other opinions out there? Can someone point me to a thread, perhaps?

I run LT TSP 409s(or something) with TSP off road pipes. I went with a 3" flowmaster cat back for the full muffler since I don't run cats, and my car has a real classic but loud sound.

I would like some advice on exhaust for my 2SS. I am not into loud, just nice and throaty with hp improvements. Can it be done in phases and where to start?

Oh, yeah, bonus check and tax return both landed this week so...I ordered CAI intake and accessories from Apex and a 1LE strut brace today. Guess you gotta start somewhere.

Chief,

I'm running SOLO Cat back on my car I like them they are like Sound on demand! they are not real aggressive but there is NO DRONE Noise at 2000RPM. if you search in the sponsors area they are up there. they are actually located near buffalo NY. Just my 2 cents. good luck.

Same here! Solo Mach-X cat back. If you don't mind a couple hour drive to Buffalo they will include the install when you buy the system! At least they did when I did mine! Give Mufflerman a call. They're on Delaware Ave. in Tonawanda (North Buffalo). Ask for Bob and tell him your an Upstate C5 member. Quite a few of us have they're system.

I have a V6 so no opinion, but I do know where the main thread is:

Hope this helps.

I have the Solo system also with the high flow cats from Mufflerman. They did a great job for me and even installed my CAI for free. I know it's a little drive for you, but well worth it my friend.

Let me know when you go and we can meet somewhere for coffee!

.......Can you tell I'm happy? I finally got the rear end all put back together! Cleaned the wheels, torqued everything down, adjusted the coilovers, put the exhaust back on, put the wheels on and lowered it down! Woo hoo! Making progress! Now I have 3 more weekends to get the front end done before the show. I have a few little surprises but you'll all have to come to the Motorama to see!
