this is the way all Camaros should sound... its cheap(if you get the Magnaflow Tru-X) and sounds very nice... i've yet to hear anyone say my Camaro sounds bad.... bad ass? yes...

These are great cars.... warranties are crap....... god luck fighting the dealership on getting work done. I waited for 10,000 miles, the all bets were off.

Sounds good, give it about 2 months and you will be itching for headers

then when you hear how awesome that sounds, and how much harder the car pulls.... Give it 6 months and you'll be putting a cam in

yeah I have discovered with a performance oriented car, its tough getting any powertrain work done anyway... every dealership wants to play the "abuse" card anyway... so you might as well just enjoy your car, the LS V8 family are some tough ass engines so enjoy them... and they are much more fun modded than stock

The cars do work better with something better than the factory crossover pipe. That’s why we include our Scavenger X-Pipe in our Cat-Back systems for the Camaro. The D-Port technology gives better power while not introducing high-pitched rasp.

Did you remove the resonators as well or just the mufflers?

wait so the xpipe u bought goes from the cats all the way to the tips right?

and it removes the resonators too.

im pretty sure thats legal in california right? as long as you dont mess with the cats it should be fine?

RedlineJimmy · 12-28-2011, 03:50 PM

I recently had the mufflers deleted, is the sound much better if I remove the Resonators and install an X-Pipe instead?

I think he may have just had the H-pipe cut out and then had an X-pipe welded in place. The resonators cut out then just straight pipes welded in place. And finally the mufflers cut off and then straight pipes welded in place. That's how mine is done. It should be legal everywhere because its downstream from the cats so you aren't screwing with emissions and its not that loud. Its loud but I've hear LOUDER more obnoxious things fly down the street.

Put an Xpipe in place of your H-pipe and just chop off the resonators and hell yeah it sounds good.
