Beautiful car. Owner should be happy Is that exhaust a dual mode setup? Approx how much $? Also, how much boost?

Just curious, but what is different about the 2012 manifolds and X-pipe? The X-pipe looks to have some extra cats or resonators...

The 2012 cars have another set of cats, so a total of four again.

Shoot me an email at anthony@lgmotorsports.com and I can get you a full run down of the pricing. Of course he added some extra mods on top of everything so it would be more than just the basic blower and header setup.

The car was a factory dual mode exhaust car, and retains that with the Akrapovic exhaust on it now.


The car is running on 93 octane pump, no Meth, and 8.5 to 9psi of measured boost.

Thanks Anthony. I know the rest of the build is pricey. It sports a hundred hp over what the ZR1 guys have. I was just looking for the price of the exhaust.

The Akrapovic systems start around $2750 for the stainless rear section kit with Ti or Carbon tips.

The header kits start at $1595 and go up to $1995 depending on what you select as options.

Stock Gen II GoodYear run flat SuperCar's.

The car makes pretty quick work of them with very very little effort.

Did your customer add the heritage stripes they are not present in the first group of photos I thought of doing the same thing.

We added those here before the car went home.

The car is not running a meth kit, we did talk about it, but the customer did not want the added parts to the car. For him it was just a street/show car, not something to run in mile competitions. With that added, HP would have been a bit higher still.

Do you feel that Meth is necessary for a street car or only for a car that you're going to track?

Depends on the car, the setup, and the owner.


In this case, it wasn't needed...not saying it wouldn't benefit from it, just not needed.
