Got my car back from BORLA

Well, I got my car back from Borla on Friday. The team at Borla did an excellent job on the exhaust sytem. The system they built has gained a lot of HP and torque and it sounds GREAT!!! After they installed the LT's and X-pipe they dyno'd the car and it gained a maximum of 333 rwhp and a maximum torque rating of 424. The car feels & sounds like a champ. THANKS BORLA........

OUT WITH THE OLD STOCK STUFF

IN WITH SOME NEW BORLA HARDWARE...YOU ARE LOOKING AT THE THE VERY FIRST SET OF BORLA C5 LT HEADERS........

X-PIPE

CAT-BACK

ON THE DYNO

Gained over 300 hp... wow I bet that exhaust will be quite expensive and popular!

Joking aside what was the baseline before headers and exhaust?
