Default GHL Header Update

Xtreme Motorsports tuned my Z06 Monday. And, they did a terrific job. Runs great, no more codes, and it feels strong! This was necesary to optimize for my new GHL s/s headers, high-flow cats, x-pipe, and their own GHL quad-tip Bullets. Unfortunately, I do not have a stock baseline, but I did have a byno run with just the "Bullets" catback system. Wtih the full GHL exhaust and tuning for it and my Vararam, the increase to the rear wheels was over 25HP and 27TQ. My current numbers are 380.5 RWHP & 369.6 RWTQ. My previous dyno run was on the same "very conservative" dyno, so the important thing is the net increase. I am super pleased with the performance and the quality is absolutely superior. I strongly recommend this system to anyone considering C5 headers. Paul

Nice numbers! GHL headers are slowly trickling in for the installs we have scheduled, but if you need a set of them, don't wait! They are selling faster than GHL can produce them.

Get your order in before the FREE SHIPPING offer ends 12/31/2004. Hopefully, GHL will extend the offer, but as of now, FREE SHIPPING is only valid until this Friday.

Thanks!

Shawn

Love to hear a sound clip of GHL headers/cats/X and GHL Bullet exhaust. It's my future....
