Just so you know. The stock SC catback is 2.25. The inlet on the stock resonator is 2.25 as well as over the axle like mentioned above.

Oh yeah. Sorry kinda forgot. But this is the one I ran on the Black car I had, but in black obviouslyLOL!!

http://www.summitracing.com/parts/PRM-1003/

This one is good to if size is issue.
http://www.summitracing.com/parts/PRM-1005/


I used some flat angle from Home Depot, less then $3. I just eliminated my stock trans cooler, was in a rush, and it worked beautiful. I know for a fact ot worked cause after 1 or 2 hard WOT runs, the trans would bang bad from P-R-D. After this it completly stopped.

Now I've always like this style for the looks.

http://www.summitracing.com/parts/DER-13250/

But not sure how well it performs. I know its used alot in the Hot Rod scene, but never researched a bunch. I"m thinking of something like this though in the fiances car cause the heat exchanger will have to take place of the trans cooler and I'll need to find a spot for the trans cooler.

Yeah thats me. Vince gets back on the 30th and tuning will return back to normal then. I'm here whenever your ready. Just pm me and we can meet and get it all done.

Vince has been tuning mine and another LSJ down here with great results and I plan on working with Vince to show he's just as great an option for the LSJ then any HPT guy

you should let him on to what Ray got on his tune. (Without a retune, it was some nice results.)

Yeah I keep bugging Rey to get his dyno sheet so we can post it.

But 274whp, 236wtq on the 1st initial tune with no retune yet or wideband hooked up. Rey's car has full bolt on's

familywagon;

Awesome. I'm deployed right now but I will definitely hit you up in a few months. Is Trifecta the way to go for tuning for the TVS and meth w/ 60's?
