Sounds better with cats not to mention no stink. Good choice. What you doing for a catback?

exactly why i'm having the cats. it sounds better and it doesn't stink. i paid extra to have cats. this is an adult car.

catback is stock right now with bullet mufflers on it. i am going to leave it as is for now and if i want more out of it down the road (probably) i'll make a new exhaust with an x-pipe and some actual mufflers.

i am not v-banding it. that's a waste of money.

i need to weld in another bung for the wideband as well as get them ceramic coated. once again, adult car. i'm not skipping steps just to have it done.

and i was out of town for the weekend doing more adult stuff: drinking my face off. i will be out of town again next weekend, too. this entire month is booked up. i don't have every weekend off to do whatever i want like i did in college.
 


Re: My '05 V - headers and poly mounts galore

there's a place locally that does ceramic. they're the ones that did the pipes on my bike, too.
 
Re: My '05 V - headers and poly mounts galore

so i don't have to worry about heat burning crap up. i refuse to wrap a nice set of headers.
 


Re: My '05 V - headers and poly mounts galore

I was just curious. I don't like the thought of wrapping either, I have two kids to prove it.

grills are done.

compared to the plastidip they were before, three coats of gloss black powder coat looks ****ing amazing.

and it only cost me $20!
 
Re: My '05 V - headers and poly mounts galore

TWENTY DOLLARz.

But seriously I like them, but not as much as I like the idea of coated, catted, LT's. On that car. I actually went with a cat in my exhaust as well: SHOCKER.

I'm getting old like you, soooo...quiet cars? yay.
 


Re: My '05 V - headers and poly mounts galore

i don't want it to be quiet, but i don't want it to sound like a straight piped LS, either.

smooth and angry is where i'm at.

Right way V8

Wrong way V8

Oh well, at least we finally both have the right number of cylinders, lol.
