Default My hooker sidepipes got here and some pics of my car.

Finally my Jethoted hookers got here the other day. I moved the vette into the shop and started taking the old stuff off. Now I need to get the jcls on the way so I can slide those in with the install. So, it all starts here. Below are some pics of the vette that will be my before shots and a good look at the exhaust that is off the car now. I'm pumped man..now if only the wife would leave a weekend open so I can install thest things. :nopity

I guess this is where the transformation begins:D

I think this is my favorite shot so far




And some of the car getting ready for the change. You can see the boxes with the new stuff off to the right. Sorry for the messy garage but I just did major surgery on my firebird and didn't have time to get the shop back in order. As soon as the headers got here I backed the formula out and the vette in.

Send me an e-mail. I have a brand new set of JCLs sitting in the garage that I'm not going to use. (matt@kmmotorsports.com)

Man, you need to get those things on and bring the car to the SAE car show at LSU next Saturday on the 24th.

:thumbs: you'll be very pleased with the results, plus seems to me that the sidepipes with hookers lightened the car. I wish I weighted my old and new exhaust systems.

I went out and weighted it all last night. Old setup was cheap block hugger headers(got them when I was in college) and true dual 2.5" exhaust with flowmaster 40 series. mufflers. Weighted in at 92 lbs. Hookers weighted in at 72 lbs not counting the JCLs.
