Sorry, but i have to agree with this.
Sell the shorties. The maggie is gonna want to exhale, let her.
Your not in CA.
The list looks great otherwise!

Projected 2 weeks out:
Magnacharger TVS-2300
CTS Custom stage 2 blower cam
PRC .650" dual valve spring kit
PRC 7.400 chromemoly pushrods
GM Crank balancer bolt
NGK TR6 Spark plugs
160* thermostat
Port and polish throttle body
Devils Own DVC-30 Stage 2 meth injection
Single guage A pillar mount (changing to a double to add fuel)
Autometer ultra lite boost gauge (changing)

What you think?
I think you should have named her Fanta.

Been in that boat with my 08 Corvette. Kept it factory until I hydrolocked the motor. Now a 418 stroker LS3, 3600 stall converter and long tube headers reside under the hood. Over 530rwhp, runs 10.9 in the quarter...but the daily driver characteristics are gone. Now...looking at selling the Corvette and going to a Camaro SS. What you are thinking sounds awesome! Just be careful to not go overboard, if it is your DD. If it is your second car, go all out! Good Luck!!

Okay I have been looking at all the LT's and the guy suggested Pacesetters because they are the cheapest...but with that, THEY ARE CHEAP! Im trying to stay in the 10k without taking out anything. Anyone have a suggestion for the "cheapest" LT's with some bang?

Stick with the Doug Thorley Long Tubes to keep that car in the "Top Notch" tier.

Let me know if you want the lowest price on em too.

Build looks great and look forward to seeing that Maggie on it!

Doug Thorley LTs are going to be the next cheapest on the list for what you get. Just know you'll have to go without cats and they are the Tri-y design.

After that you'll probably have to spend double the money on a set of KOOKS, TX Speed, or maybe LG. Then add a few hundred more if you want ARH or SLP.

Just remember you have to level everything out. I want HF cats and ceramic coating. One or both of those items usually have to be added to the LTs.

You got it sir.

And remember, that 14" "off road connection pipe" can easily be replaced with a High Flow Cat.

Got a bunch of people doing that as well!!!!
