Nice, they even have sound clips too. That will probably be the catback that I opt for. Too bad they don't have any pictures or a price yet.

yeah magnaflow or borla would be the exhaust of choice for me. to bad they have no specs on it. like the size of the piping, muffler dimentions. so on and so forth. but it sounds nice, not raspy.

I agree, I think the stock exhust is plenty high-flow. The intake is what I'd only change.

I would pay 700 bucks if borla manufactured a cat-back for the ss. I have a borla cat-back on my grandam and the thing sounds pretty mean....for a 6 cylinder at least.

yes you can. if there are any issues, and it is a reult of the added part, then that repair would probably not be covered, but there's not much stuff to screw up on a cat-back lol

I really like Borla but, they need to start designing tips that look decent.

stock exhaust might be high flow, for stock, but theres always more potential, add a few other mods then the stock exhaust is what will be keeping you from full hp potential. if things were good from stock then aftermarket companies would go out of business, theres room for improvement on everything. but imo the header is the most restrictive part of the ss. as with any car.

anything larger and you will be losing low-end torque.... bigger is not always better

i don't think there are many applications that would reuire over a 2.5" pipe. when i was under our car i noticed we have almost a completely straight shot from our manifolds to the rear of the car. just a couple of really small bends.

thats cool and all, but in order to stuff more air in, you have to keep it equally flowing out in order too keep making good amounts of power...
