Another Happy Titanium Owner
Hey Guys,
Just had my stock exhaust swapped out with a ZO6 exhaust. Slight subtle difference at idle, very sweet at WOT and they look 1000% better. Sorry for the poor pictures.

For 300 bucks though, I think it was a great mod.

The lift is actually Rick's (VetteTech81). I think he mentioned that he got it from Harbor Freight. Hit him up on the boards for his opinion on the lift.
Here are some more pics of the lift in action. Sorry for the tilt.

If you add an X-pipe and replace the cats with free-flow units, you'll have a nice, fairly aggressive sound under throttle, but still be quiet at highway speeds. That's what I have and I couldn't be happier.

I'm sure it'll get even louder with headers. I didn't want to go that far with mine as it's just a cruiser, not a "racer". Besides, the louder you get the more challengers you'll meet. If that's what you're looking for you can't beat longtubes. Eventually, I plan on a set of shorties with an LS6 manifold, and that will probably be the end of my engine tweaks (already have the VR-B2 with Power Duct). No matter how much power you put down, there will always be someone out there with more. Besides, I can get in about as much trouble with 350hp as anyone with 600hp. Where does it all end?

thats exactly what i want to do, the by pass on them. but overall i hate the ti's. after reading on here with so many people loving them i purchased a set and just did lt's and x-pipe with no cats and i swear its like stock. i figured with lt's and no cats it be a nice tone. to me it sounds like stock. where can i get some ti piping?
