Thats awesome.

I am really considering getting it as well. This is by far the cheapest way to get a full 3" kit on our cars. I will use my FM Outlaws or another set of mufflers most likely though. I just want the pipes.

I have a built motor and am running Kooks Headers. I wanted a full 3" exhaust, and was told by Kooks that the only full 3" kit available on the market to fit their headers (and the car), was their Z28 3" Catback system....So I bit the 1500 dollar bullet and ordered their kit, despite the fact that I don't like the way Kooks mufflers sound. 6 weeks later it arrived and I went to install it..... I was pissed. The X-pipe was 2" too long on the passenger side and almost 4" too long on the driver's side, so it took some time to make it work. In the end, it sounded Ok, but I still don't like it.

I'll be honest, if this kit would have been compatible with my headers, I would have been all over it. 3" with Bullet type mufflers and nice tips....for $500 bucks. Thats a no brainer in my opinion. Im actually tossing around the idea of buying this kit and seeing if I can make the mufflers, axle pipes, and tips work on my car.

Jeremy Formato (Cletus's Tuner) from FasterProms just bought the kit. He bought the Camaro version to retrofit to his Police Cruiser Impala, Uncle Sam

He hasn't hooked it up yet but he laid the kit out on the floor and says its very good quality.

It looks super nice too. I am getting it as soon as I get some cash. It comes with 2 sets of tips! Beautiful QUAD TIPS!!!

Check it out here at exactly 3:00 minutes and again at 4:44

Well i installed the exhaust and had to modify it a little which was ok. After i got it all together and started it, i couldn't do it way to quit. My old exhaust was just the stock 2.5 without resonators and mufflers to my long tubes. Only reason i was getting away from that was it was to raspy. So this morning i have taken off the mufflers and running it straight without muffler or tips and it sound amazing. You can hear that cam working again. I contacted speed engineering to see if they make a stainless pipe to delete the mufflers i sure hope they do or i will make something up. I will get some videos soon and try to post them for you guys. All around not a bad kit for the price. Loud pipes save life's.

The mufflers are too quiet...that's what I was afraid of.

If so, that's probably my biggest concern about this kit, or that they just sounded like ass I would retrofit my FM Outlaws into it, but part of the beauty of this kit is the polished stainless.

The similar Speed Engineering kit for the 4th gen TA/Camaro sounds amazing. Its called their true dual kit. But it seems to use hollow resonators, similar to SLP Loudmouth I , to make that sound.

STALKER · 04-13-2019, 02:49 PM

I’m surprised the mufflers are quiet...Are they not straight-through bullet mufflers? I would have thought they would be loud.
