Oh wow!!! Your name change finally went through.. Good for you bud.. I told you that attorney was good. Pretty soon you 2 might be able to get married.. I still say you guys should move to a state were it is legal for same sex marriage. Again I don't have a problem with all of this but I'm not into it..

No!!! I got that on my own. My dad said to tell you hello. My mom and dad both told me to tell you that they are ok with you being gay. Like I told you before it isn't as big of deal as it used to be.. Again I'm not into it but I won't put you down because of it...

Yes, I know your daddy very very well. Not so much your mom, but I'm sure she's very nice too.

Did you have a good time in Vegas ?? Did you take pictures at the bunny ranch ? And your wife knows about that too, that is very cool. Not many wives would be so cool about that. BTW, Nice car you rented out for $200/day. High rolling? You must of dropped $20k. Nice trip. Hope you enjoyed yourself. Post some more pictures on FB.

I don' know about anyone else, but I'd be happy if you two boys took your p***ing contest out to the playground.

The Bunny ranch was cool. I took some pictures and put them on facebook for you. The CTS-V rental car was nice and I guess your right it came out to almost $200 a day. Yes we had close $20,000 in to the trip. I think once your attorney fights for your job back you should get your back pay and then you can go. I can't believe they fired you for having a relationship with your boss. I think it was more of the fact that you 2 are both guys now. Don't worry buddy it will all work out for you guys...

Billy Boat Performance Exhaust. No harsness, no ripping sound. Just rich, smooth, traditional American V8 muscle sound. There is no substitute.

2013 Z06 is cutting out the cats, doing O2 sims. Full headers. Voiding the warranty. Money don't matter to him. He needs to spank the high school kids in their Mustangs. It puts a smile on his face all day.

Hey, I know your still a little upset about me letting the cat out of the bag about you situation. I think most of the guys on here are ok with you coming out of the closet. Again I'm not in to it but to each their own.

Jon, I just put some BB Fusion's on at the same time I did a header install.

Should I be expecting unbearable drone between 1.6k and 1.8K steady state throttle? Any other RPM (speed) it sounds awesome, particularly WOT above 3k...almost as good as sex!

Just concerned that I ended up with an exhaust leak at one of the joints.

Thanks,
Bob...

Headers can increase drone. What year and model do you have? Which headers? Did you install an X-pipe?

This is my stock Z06 muffler with some headers. I think they sound awesome!

I just want to know if an X-pipe will help the sound any over a Y pipe?

Thanks for the reply Jon.
I have 1 7/8" header, cat-less X-pipe (3") and Fusion exhaust.

Just drove from Nashville to Orlando and my wife said either they go or no more trips with her. I got to admit that between 65-78 mph it's downright unbearable. The only option is to drive in 5th gear or speed up to 82. Oh, and I already got one speeding ticket for 86 in a 70 zone.

It's going to be a long drive back.

Thanks again for your support!

Which version of the C6 do you have (Z06?) It's a 2008?

I'm not going to be doing headers though. I want to have warranty from Edelbrock and what ever would be left from GM. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated...
Borla Stingers. The CLASSIC version, not the newer one that has the large cans like the stock exhaust has.

Looks GREAT on the car with the rolled tips and twisted pipes....and sounds AMAZING.

question. can the fusions be used with the stock npp exhaust system? if so i would order them along with the diablo tuner i1000 just to perk up the performance a little. thanks for your input.
