I would rather buy a known quality exhaust then attempt to hatch something together only to have to do it over again.

Thank you for your thoughts and for being here listening to our needs.
I agree, i love that owners of companies that take the time to come here... however I have have a low tolerance for people that jump into some one elses thread just to bash the competitors product and then basically spam us with what ever they happen to be selling!

START YOUR OWN THREAD! Then give us the pros and cons... make your arguments there... give us some thing more than "a higher quality"... How is it a higher quality? If I remember correctly the GMPP exhaust is made by Borla... so how is the Magnflow better? Don't just say it's higher quality... be ready to back that up...

Yes, I love my MRT exhaust and I have no hesitation telling people about it... BUT I never go into another persons thread and trash their system (at least I hope I haven't and if I have some one please point it out so I can fix it!) and then try and push the MRT system!

I know that everyone has very different tastes when it comes to exhausts... And hey, if you are happy with your exhaust then I'm happy for you! (ok... I apologize... but the muffler delete did sound pretty bad... LOL)

So hey, the more companies making products for the V6, the better! However please don't just spam us in other peoples/product threads...

It's been some time coming as well! Just about everywhere I read, I see Al, aka 2Tightwads, pushing his company. No offense Al, but you need to tone it down, it gets annoying, and it's spam. Like the others, I appreciate that you're here and that you are enthusiastic about the Camaro and those of us who want to tune and tweak it, but please quit blasting your business in our faces in every thread. We know who you are, and we see your sig (unless someone has theirs turned off) and we know what you offer. Please take it down a notch bro!

Hrm...acehole...I have to disagree (Of course I know its all a matter of personal opinion) but have you listened to buddylok's and kellyjrt's magnaflow setups?? They are two of my favorites so far (along with a couple others)...and I think they actually sound better than the Camaro V6 catback kit offered directly from magnaflow.

Its definitely not all crap....well, thats my opinion.

Vendors are allowed to have opinions too folks. Sorry if you don't agree with mine or the above. We sell and test alot of product. So I see the difference first hand. Shame on me if I can get you a better system (in my opinion) for 1/4 less from Mangaflow I guess.

I've had the GMPP V6 exhaust on for 6 months now. I like the sound and looks. Getting rid of the stock cans and adding the great looking tips is a plus.

I disagree with anyone who says the sound is not much better than stock. I actually was concerned about some in cabin drone at certain RPM's when first installed but that seems to have mellowed out with break in as scriming has said.

They've never been raspy in any range. Nice low sound, never too high for my taste. The wife likes the sound, that's a bonus.

It's not that you are stating an opinion that bugs me, it's the constant, "please call 2 Tightwads Racing @ 210-954-4985 Owner: Al Tillman. "

Again, we know who you are, the info is in your sig. You, and I'm sure I'm not the only one here who feels this way, are acting like that pushy salesman that just irrates the hell outa people and makes them want to spend their money, even if it is more, elsewhere.

So, please, by all means, offer up your opinion! Especially since you've heard/installed a lot of this stuff firsthand, just lay off the constant sales pitch bro!



Okay, end rant and thread hijack!!

Guys!

Any feedback on the GMPP Airbox system? GM recommends it with the exhaust.

Any power gains?

Did you witness any hp power in take offs after changing the stock exhaust?

I'm not to thrilled about my GMPP exhaust and getting ready to replace them with the SLP Loudmouth II or the MRT ver. 2.0 but with the help from other members sending me their sound clips of the MRT 2.0 I think thats what I'm going to replace the GMPP's with !!

Exhaust System (w/Tips) - Installed Price $1,049.00
Air Intake Kit - Installed Price $499.50

Total $1,548.50 plus tax

I also prefer to get things that are manufacturer made for my cars because I want to maintain my warranty, and again My Car and My Money

I am still running with the stock Air Intake. There has been a delay in releasing the GMPP Air Intake System. The last I had heard was that it was suppose to be released Oct 2010, that has not happened yet. I am going to wait until Jan 2011, then if it still has not been released I will be asking for my money back and getting a CAI from Roto-Fab colored the same as my car (RJT).
