Yeah well Im happy with it and I've heard alot of V8's that dont sound nearly as good IMO. But I guess in the end it's subjective, and maybe the pacemakers, as great as they are for flow (and they definetly are) were the reason why it sounded the way it did. Infact that's why I went with Lukeys; I've heard from many people more knowledgable than myself that they produce a less choppy note, albeit sacrificing flow and efficiency to the pacies. Sound aside though, I have noticed a big difference in the overall willingness of the car; far better pull.

Have you got high flow cats on it at the moment?
If not, definately look at getting some 200cpsi cats. The sound will change and it will gargle and spit like no tomorrow. The sexiest sound in the world IMO

2 venom 200cpsi 2.5" cats. I think theyre around $150-$200 each? Dont remember. But you will need to get them welded on. So, maybe $280 each side fitted

Try closer to 300mm in the mid section. I have a modded sedan exhaust in my NC.
