GMPP may be your way to go then. Refined rumble is the only thing I can say. I love the back pressure sound it makes too, especially when it is load baring.

I liked the SLP Loudmouth II and the Powerflow.

LEDs installed

AAC LEDs installed look great but would do a few things differently now.

I would order the LEDs plain. Paint job is mediocre at best, but does match the OEM RJT paint. Blemishes and tint is not quite good enough for me. So I would order them plain and have a local painter of my choosing do the tint and paint. Things like bubbles, dirt, and taping issues are things when you pay over 130 for paint should be perfect.

Definitely look great on.

that looks awesome...can't see the bad paint/tint job in pic's. I agree they should do a good job when you pay for it. However, they look really good on your car.

I like the look on 1Rd Jewl with the new LED turn signal/marker lights.

I saw an unpainted set a couple weeks ago and they don't look pretty either.

Yeah, didn't want to bore you all.

Here is a link with the problems and these pictures. Tried to be honest.

the harmonics of the V6 make it tough to get a rumble. I suggest listening to cars in person. Have LIB take you for a ride in Merlin so you can hear what its like at higher RPM...

Good luck!
This is from waaaay back at the VOA meet. You can hear Merlin's exhaust note a few times.

Your car looks sweet with those markers. I had a little trouble recognizing it without any bugs on the front bumper though.

Were the lights difficult to install? I might get a set and have garyscustomz paint them.

I would do the same thing Darth. Gary seems to have better quality control. If you get serious about it, let me know, we may get a deal for the both of us if you would be interested in going that way.

JWLs car does look pretty tough with it. The Red just makes the LEDS pop out at you.

I would work with a different company if you have too. If you order from AAC go with the plain ones and have Gary's do the painting/tinting for you.

Literally a 10 minute job for the whole car. Easier than your rear bow-tie.

Here it is, BBK long tube headers with high flow cats for V6 Camaros. Has before and after Dynos. Gives it a deeper tone.
