Well before when he just had cat back pipes with stock h-pipe me and him would run even all the way until 140-150, I couldn't beat him he couldn't beat me. But then he got the x-pipe on and now he slowly pulls away from me... But yea his car is just way too fu<kin loud... but i'm pretty close... all I need is the S&S headers and i'll be back up there with him... And if I get the 3.76 lsd I'll be in ls1 territory...

If you don't mind me asking, how much does it cost you (if you paid to have it done) to get straight pipes installed? (question for all of you)

Your GS sounds sweet. I would like to request a video of a fly-by.

I used to have a 01' Cobra with uncatted X-pipe and SLP Loudmouth exhaust. It was insanely loud so I went with a Bassani X-pipe with hi-flow cats.

Well I bought the x-pipe off of ebay for $65, then I had a local muffler shop cut off all the old cats and mufflers and they made my new exhaust with 4 inch tips for like $350 or something like that... And then I hollowed out the cats by the headers in my garage.

I think I might just do that... I'll work on getting the launch and drive-by vids...

Don't know if you want to have your license plates showing when admitting online to have removed emissions devices, Texas is cracking down on this lately from what i've seen.

Especially with the Falsified inspection stickers (In case you removed the emissions stuff before getting re-inspected.)

TXDOT does watch youtube
