Default Stop, Drop and Roll

Lowered my adjusting stops, installed Carbotech pads, and installed Soler MTB. Only thing left is, maybe, a Halltech CAI. All is good in my world!

It's "peppy" now! There are several more eloquent reviews, but this is how I'll describe it. lol

I'm good with the factory set up. I'd like black tips but I'm happy with the factory setup. I had six different setups on my G8, and finally went with a deeper more mellow sound that some of the others. BTW, my G8 has (I dropped a dod lifter) forged pistons, rods, cam, head, LT's with cats, Maggie 1900 with one step lower pully, Rotofab cai. I used to switch back and forth between a SLP loudmouth and SLP powerflow. That's the hard way to do mild to wild. lol. One day I just decided the loudmouth was too obnoxious! Have left the Powerflow on for a solid year. BTW the track setting on the 'Vette is just a little quieter than the Powerflow.
