ZL1 sounds a bit better but unfortunately you didn't actually rev the car for anyone to hear if there was any change in sound but until otherwise proven, to me, it sounds like nothing more than a slightly louder LS3 (no NPP)

That's just my opinion though.....



I hate to disagree with your opinion, but that sounds a lot better than my stock SS. exhaust........................ JRJ

I hope those wheels look better in person because they're hideous in the pictures! I'm not diggin' the radio either......It looks aftermarket and I don't see a CD slot. To someone who has hundreds of CD's, that's a showstopper. But I do like those quad exhaust tips. Does Qty 1 PN 22756148 gets you both LH and RH mufflers? I can't imagine the LH and RH being the same, but I wouldn't think that GM wouldn't sell just one. Does any body know what else it takes to make this setup work? (wiring harness, controllers, etc) I'd think the thing to do, is get the GM diffuser and wait on aftermarket quad tip mufflers. And I love that new shift knob!

Carelessness....

Yep! One of the first things I noticed when I got to that side of the car. When it got back out from that position, the "air damn" definitly had some damage. I look for this type of stuff cause I had to replace 3 of the 16 little plastic bolts under there myself within the first two weeks of getting mine.

Who uses CD's anymore??? Seriously...

I think it may slide out and down a little to insert a CD. Agreed though that it looks cheap (like the Metra kit).

Also those wheels are fugly... Soooooooo happy right now that we got an '11 SS

As for the exhaust, i'd prob just have it open all the time anyways so no need for the fancy switch (although it is nice on my boat, but that sounds badass with it straight out )

Me....That's who! Actually I rarely play CD's, but giving up the player is a step in the wrong direction. I mostly listen to music on my 4gb usb drive, but that stupid 2500 song limit keeps me from adding more. I bought a 32gb drive and put my entire music library on it, but it wont sync up. Besides, CD's still sound better than mp3's and a lot better than XM.

D'oop! Well we all learn somehow! I backed my camaro into a bush within a month or two of owning it.
All the scrapes came right out, but I still feel like an idiot!

you are comparing a completely stock sound to a heavily modded car?
