oh yea... it was awesome. when i had teh supercharger and the LS3 i kept having people meet me at stop lights, more than one person said.... it sounded like a pissed off lambo. hahaha

mine are gone now... sold to a guy in San Antonio. I have custom LoveFab welded manifolds and customer built exhaust going on to match the turbos.

I fear I am going to have to have custom exhaust manifolds made for my car too. It turns out that the stock exhaust manifolds won't work with 6-bolt heads. D'oh!

YEAH!! COTW! I thought this back about 1 year ago, and ever since. I have to keep up with this thread because every few months, it seems you keep increasing the HP. Keep up the great work.
