Default Back From Rippie WOW

Got the car back from Rippie and all I can say is WOW what a difference.First class operation and not a ding scratch or any thing on it.

They didn't have any headers to put on so I will be taking it back up for them soon. I would Highly recomend them to anyone .

Dyno Results in Sig

We want a PIC! SEND US A PIC!!

One thing you can look forward to with the headers, besides an engine that breathes better is a change in the sound of your exhaust. Will be much more of a bad boy then. Congrats. DRM is quite good from what I hear. Glad they took good car of you.

DRM did me right also. What air box do you have and did you do the LS6 intake manifold yet? Has your pcm been done yet? The headers should perk it up some more. :cheers:
