When somebody pulls your car into a shop to change the tires, change the oil, whatever, it makes a completely dominating sound. The Flowmaster was close. It was loud. But the GMMG is more ground shaking.
yeah its only got 22,000 miles on the chassis and 10,000 on the motor, so I guess it would be worth spending the 800 smackers on an exhaust system for a car like this.

Before and after = stock vs GMMG

The two "Josh" videos were LS1 with Long tubes, cats, and GMMG.
My friend Dave had an LT1, mac headers, no cats, Hooker Aerochamber catback.

$800 is a bargain for this exhaust. I wound up spending $1500 for the catback and the catalytic converter. That was shipped, taxed, installed. Getting this stuff to Canada was not cheap even with the group purchase and getting it shipped with my own shipping company rather than UPS. I saved about $250 on the shipping alone.

For you, being in the US, you get free shipping, no sales tax, no exchange rate.

I used to have a flowmaster 80 on my RS, but I changed over to the Edelbrock RPM.

Now that I have an L98 instead of the LO3, and the sound is even more killer, I just dont have my brothers camera anymore to take another sound clip.
