It is loud. Catless Hahn DP no resonator just that Borla XR1 on there. Too loud for some people but I like it. . pretty quiet when cruising but screams when I get on it.

That should be loud with no muffler on there. The only way to make it louder in your case is to delete the resonator and the cat. It will be a little louder then.

Nothing yet... just talked to them last night... they told me what they needed.

Unfortunately i would rip them off my own car, but it's my DD so that isn't going to happen.

I would like to get them off a junked LNF because they said they might not be in "good" condition when returned... they will have to basically disassemble everything.

But better injectors, higher capacity fuel pump, and fuel management system could be the end result.

My powerband is closer to 4K rpms. 2800-6800 makes pretty dang good power. Heck this thing makes almost 300 wtrq at 2800 rpms now.

I suppose that entirely depends on what you want to get out of the car. If you're looking for dragstrip times then I would imagine most people would like the most HP they can get out of the engine. If I were in this category I would still be waiting for the GM Stage Kit before a Trifecta, but that's also personal preference .

If you're looking to autocross, or simply get more dig out of corners for daily driving then the GM Stage Kit (whenever it's released) is likely your answer due to the substantial torque we'll be putting down with this installed. I personally would rather have this one (though with the car as is I have more than enough for what I use it for) since with my day to day driving where the hell can I even use the full 260hp without aiming to get myself in ****? I top out second gear and I'm past the majority of speed limits around here, top out third and I'm pretty much looking for a ticket even on the highways .

Personally torque is more useful to me on a daily basis but I see the arguments for others wanting the HP to put down the numbers on the strip. Long story short I suspect most people will always be looking for more out of their car, but there's limitations that other components are going to run into. Play 'er safe and I'm sure you'll have a solid car, push them too hard and it's gonna see the dealership on a regular basis .

Best of luck with your modding !
