Texas Speed Headers, no cats, Ported Throttle Body, LMR CAI, 160 T-stat, Tune, E85 flex. Flows through OEM NPP, can turn down and make quiet too, but what fun is that...

Big Gains, almost 480 hp / 480 torque.... As far as cost, hard to say, really never tracked that. Very noticeable, walks on a stock C7...

Sounds good. Is that just a shadow or is your spoiler sticking out on the side of your car?

Nice! Would have been cool to hear the difference from closing the NPP.
My headers are on the way so I should know soon enough lol

Raspy much?
I've got TSP Headers on my car with offroad x-pipe. Is it normal for it to be pretty raspy/tinny? In Touring with the valves closed it's not too bad but when they are open it is vary raspy/tinny when popping the throttle, especially when cold. Almost sounds like something rattling. Anyone else notice this? Is it normal?
Under load, at WOT, it sounds like a frigging animal regardless of valve position. It is truly something that needs to be experienced lol!
