Mother of g_d does that sound good. I can't wait to get a proper exhaust on my car so it sounds similar again.

Thanks brother....
haha...thanks Bob. You get the added pleasure now of hearing that glorious sound on upshifts and downshifts through the proper 6-speed (with the added whine of that supercharger 
). It really sounds much better in person (my camera really doesn't capture the true sound). Hopefully Santa will allow me to put some better vids that will keep motivating you, as I'm really looking forward to hearing the V.

GoPro Hero3 Silver Edition
Recorded a before and after the Header/X-Pipe/Tune install. I'm going to be returning the GoPro Hero3 Silver for some issues (see new owners thread), but here is a quick video I shot. I just wanted to compare some daily light take offs (not full throttle or shifting at redline). Anyway, what do you guys think?

AFTER (Headers/X-Pipe/Tune) :

Thanks guys for the kind words.
Once I get my Hero3 Best Buy return back, I'll try to get a better mount set up and ring it out to the redline (sounds even better up top in the last 1000 rpms).
You guys have any good recommendations on how to mount the GoPro??
Brosef, I'll see you soon.

Dont know what took me so long, but I opened my hood for the 1st time. I really need to clean my engine bay. 
Anyway, here's how the headers look after putting some miles on them....

Thanks JB. No problem. It would be selfish of me not to share that sound for you guys to enjoy as well. Im going to try to get a last clip where I ring it out to the last 1500 rpm. The scream at the top of the tach is glorious. 
X2. I'll wait a few years for the higher performance versions to come out (you know its just a matter of time). Regardless, I'll be keeping my C6 Vert' and would only look to add a C7, in Artic White this time around

haha...i agree. I was just testing out the wide shot pics. Not bad from such a little camera.
Anyway, here is some funny recording. I was testing out a launch and look what happens at the end. Of course, someone wants to play. And of course, look what it is.....
I was wondering why he was staring at me when I stopped (to get my camera....haha) and made a u-turn. I didnt even see the guy coming till I watched the vid. Funny stuff.

swoosh, thanks I appreciate it. When I 1st got the car, the looks didnt fully match the sound. Now it does.
Been fun getting it there. Sounds like that those vroom noises I'd make as a little kid as I played rowing through the gears. Mr. Steve, at least it's not the Toyota/Lexus beep for 5 minutes until you put your seatbelt on.
That was my mistake in the vid. I can record others so it want a big deal. The camera doesnt capture the true sound of the car anyway.

I like
BTW, have you thought about just having one build thread and just updating it when you do stuff to your car? I always find those much easier to navigate and it keeps everything in one place...
Let me know and I can merge a few for you to get it going...
