Picked up the car from the shop today. They quoted the job at 8hrs and it actually took them 13 hours to complete!! I give major props to Simpli auto of Jonesboro, AR, they are men of their word and they stuck to the original $400 quote!
I'll do a review write up after I've had a few days or a week to get to know the new upgrades to my baby. But for now I will say....Wow it sounds great and holy crap when I get on the gas at the upper end it sounds like I'm driving a true blue race car! Very impressed.

I can confirm that I don't have any hiss whatsoever. I guess that due to the LT headers. And as for the possible smell of fumes I was warned about when I have the top down, there is none! So everything worked out extremely well. The car is a whole new beast. It's really like getting to know an entirely new car when I drive. At idle you can only hear a slight deep rumble, but from 0-20 it's loud. Like good loud. But from 20-100 (especially 60-100) OMG it sounds and feel so Pucking amazing its criminal!!

Perhaps so. Def no hiss. Honestly I was trying hard to listen for the hissing sound thru all the gears but I was happy to realize there wasn't any no matter how hard I tried. The headers n exhaust combo really open up the air flow out of the engine and man you can FEEL the difference.
The only negative I have noticed so far is that the check engine light stays on bc of the cats delete. The shop told me about these things you can buy to trick the car into believing the cats are still there...but they are $99 each and the shop said I will need at least 2 if not 4 of them. Sorry I don't recall what they are called right now, but I plan on calling FI Tom and asking them their opinion.

Copied from your other thread.
"Red, glad to hear your exhaust setup has no hiss but we need proof. Please record a video from the rear of your car revving the engine and letting the rpms falls all the way back down. Thanks."

That's my parents nieghborhood. Most all of the homes out there are either still being built or finished but not sold yet. It only looks like it is an inappropriate place to drive. But I took a slow lap first to make sure there weren't any kids playing or old folks mowing etc before I had my younger brother take the video. I don't drive crazy around people or the possibility of hurting/scaring anyone. Perhaps I shouldn't captioned that beneath the video so more members could enjoy it for what it really was instead of getting the impression that I was driving out of line. I give you my word that no one was harmed or even frightened in the making of this video Legos.
