Those of you that were interested in magnaflow mufflers with non stock powerplants, here's what mine sound like:

I was HOPIN' you would run across this thread.

Personally, I like the little torque the car does in park when revving.

(edit: If that was too subtle, it's a Jeb Burnett motor. )

I was thinking those tires looked a little small for the sound that thing is putting out! MagnaFlows and an X pipe will be the way I go if I put mufflers back on. Right now it's just high flow cats and the stock resonater!

That was in reference to a snide remark from a guy on another mailing list. He'd seen the car about 6 years ago and remarked how it was 'just a beatup old blue vette'.

Figured I'd have to show otherwise.

Yeah, the driveline is ALSO a Jeb Burnett creation (great job, no noise, D36 good for 600 ft-lb on slicks) The tires are the same 285's all the way around. I haven't given much thought to more meat as our C5 needs prettier wheels and it's takeoffs will probably get something slick n sticky.

I had to get wider tires. The tq was just TOO MUCH for those "little" 285's! I've actual considered going to a 17x12 rear wheel and getting 335's!
