Oh, like this?





This was my 2010 SS that I traded in on my 4 banger. The one side sounded great after it "broke down"... LOL

You know that old trick magicians do with the "never ending handkerchief out of the sleeve"? That's how I felt as I was pulling it out in the Walmart marking lot.

Sure! I'll post some drivebys asap. I haven't been able to hear it while under load yet from the outside of my car so I'm also curious as to what it sounds like lol

No the turbo sound definitely 100% comes from the injen open cai and zzp hi-flo downpipe.

We actually use a custom blend of stainless steel packing, so our mufflers dont blow out like some of the cheaper types do. You will, however, notice the muffler get slightly louder after the first 500-1k miles as it breaks in and becomes heat-cycled.
