Hi Lou;

Sure did!!! If I'm not on call, I plan to make it (you know, have to work to pay for the toys). I'm hoping to sort this out in the next couple of days. Can I sign up at the "last minute?"-I realize that's an inconvenience for you, but about the best I may be able to do.

Is Randy (and Jeremy) coming? It would be great to see the whole gang.

Regards to all!!!!!

I hope to be there at least one of the days, but as I am moving the same weekend it maybe a challenge. Definetely let me know if you are coming for the weekend and we can do any tuning adjustments if you need it too. :yesnod:

Eric, Late is ok. Just let me know. And bring Jim Willis with you.

John,
That "Murry hill number" was from a WABC radio add from a "Dennison Clothiers" add. it said, "Money talks, nobody walks at Dennison Clothiers".
It just stuck in my mind as a kid.

John, we still have room for you. What is life without adventure!

See you there.

I see that my son Louis has been on my computer :lol: But this is me.

Lou, tell him to get back to me with that IM. :lol:

I was going to IM you with this, but I figure it'd be better to just post. What H/C of yours gives the best gains without any noticeable changes in idle and idle sound? What kind of gains should I expect with blackwing, ti exhaust, your upcoming LT headers, tuning, and whateve H/C you recommend? Dang, that may be tough to answer. :lol:

"B Quick" I will have Louis get back with you.


As for the delivery time, I just got off the phone with Borla, and they said 13 days. They want to complete them before the end of the month. Then it will take 4 days by truck to deliver 50 sets to our facility in Dallas. That puts the time frame at 17 days plus a couple of weekend days.

The pre production sale will end the day the headers arrive here in Dallas.

Thanks to all of you who have placed the pre production orders, even though you had to wait a while. It won't be long now.

The production headers will also be carried by West coast Corvettes and Ecklers so far, in addition to right here at LG Motorsports and your local tuners by request.

Thanks again

Lou Gigliotti LG Motorsports

Bolt right up....Zero welding.

Check out photo
Bolts to the heads, then there are 4 clamps, then bolts directly to the muffler flanges. 304 Stainless Steel full 3" system back to the mufflers.

Hi, I have the original Borla XR-1 (not the Stinger).
Will the tail section of the XR-1 bolt onto your pipes?
Also, how are all your sections connected togeter? Are they all welded @ Borla's factory?
Thanks

Phil,

Borla said that they would complete the production run before the end of the month, so they could count them in their July accounting numbers. That means that we should see them by the first week in August.


TWC5,
The system will not bolt up to the early Borla XR1. We can make you an adapter for that, but the system is designed for the "cat back" mufflers.

The X pipe has clamps so it can be removed. The clamps are not shown in the photos, but the plan now is to have cats that fit in the X pipe area. We will supply 3 different levels of Cats. Catco/Carsounds, Random original style, and the new Random "Metal Matrix" which are the state of Catlytic art right now.

Catco/Carsounds are what other brands are now using. We want to offer the option of upgrading cats to meet the various customer needs.

Thanks,

Lou G

Will the cats void the use of an X-pipe?
- or will there be another X-pipe?
Do you have a drawing of what you expect the production headers to look like with cats?
(Can't see that there is space to add something where the X-pipe sits)

Thanks,
Nimo

The Cats will be an addition to the X pipe. they only add 8" to the overall length. At first, we will have cats that will replace the entire X pipe, then the next production run will have room for the cats to be part of the x pipe.

We can do a custom cat set up for any of the first sets, but theywill have to be hand built.

Right now, theheaders are supposed to be completed by Borla next week, and shipped directly to LGM. We will then ship them out that day to all who have ordered.

Thanks to all who took advantage of the pre production pricing.



I will keep you posted.

If I had them on my car I'd trailer it upside down. Winter project for me when my account recovers. They do look and perform nice.

Ken,

Operators are standing by for your order :lol: At least they will be tomorrow. I am holding the price until the first production run hits Dallas. We have not hit the 50 mark yet. Although we have sold 83 G5X-2 cams :D

Give us a call and thanks
