Talking Installed GT500 Axel Back

Just installed the take off and WOW. I have had a C&L CAI and 91 Bama tune for the past couple months and the car was running great. NOW I am seeing the full potential of this muffler. I was a little skeptical but that V6 muffler really does restrict the flow a ton, its like my baby is finaly able to take deep breaths and exhale at the same time.

For those of you sticking with the V6 muffler I would highly encourage you to get a take off the hype is not just hot air.

BTW took video of the before/no muffler/after so I will post that as soon as I can.

The V6 muff is not THAT restrictive....
Dyno it before and after to see the minimal results.
Its all in your head. Untill you remove the highly restrictive
cats and replace them with some high flow cats, the
butt dyno is just fooling you....
The two into one Y pipe does not help the situation either...

Kudos on the exhaust sound improving mod....
