Another show Lady- Why does your car say Corvette on the engine? We have a Corvette and your car doesn't look like one. LMFAO

Looks good. Only suggestion I would have is to switch to a much bigger downpipe. That one is probly holding back 60rwhp at minimum and slows the spool time. The small downpipe can also cause engine damage from too much backpressure.

i agree with you but i dont have much room in there....right now its a 3 inch down pipe and 3 inch all the way back..with just a straight thru muffler......it does spool pretty quick.......wish i could fit a bigger pipe in there

When your done make a short downpipe to go out under the car. You won't beleive the difference.After that you'll cut anything to make it fit.

Also watch out with the wastegate dumping back into a restrictive exhaust. It can cause serious boost creep.
