Default Thanks ECS!!

Just wanted to give a big THANK YOU to the guys @ ECS for makin my car ANGRY!!

They installed a set of American Racing Long Tubes, X-pipe w/ hi-flo cats, and did a street tune. The car sounds like a COMPLETELY different car now- it went from souding mean to all out ANGRY! All I can say is WOW!

Even though it's counterintuitive, the car feels like it pulls better in the upper RPMs- doesn't seem to give up like it used to. I thought LT's were all about low-end, no? Anyway- all's I can say is I LOVE IT!!! THANKS ECS!!!

p.s.- I was hopin for one of those cool ECS flame stickers after this and the 4.10's!!

Way to go Chris, great job on the mod Should really open her up for the Challenge. You may want to consider the trip to Virginia with us in February to give her a much needed test

Good for you Chris, how do you like the new sound? (I'm still waiting for my sticker, I had to borrow an old ECs shirt from someone and never give it back to have a shirt)
