1) Tips will not increase the sound of your car..... you need the full catback, or midpipe, or headers, or any combination of the 3....

2) BFG g-force tires are better then anything I've seen at walmart so far.... What kinda tires did you get?

Dude "tips" have nothing to do with how loud your car is or how fast it will go. An after market catback exhaust, midpipe, or headers is what will give you a more aggresive tone. Also the gt's are louder stock vs. stock with a 6 banger........and as far as you "performance tires" from wal-mart go you are not going to go any faster, you may have some better grip and control but I doubt they will help you win a race.......sorry if that kinda shuts down your hopes.

Is this the "ebay" guy that we talked about with the white V6 and lambo doors that claims his car can reach 135mph in 3rd?
