I dunno, I was driving around today with my new Corsas, and I didn't even want to listen to my newly installed stereo!

Anything special about the choices with my 90, Marc's Chip and other then that stock with cats emptied out, do not want the drone thing my wife will kill me still

about my just going to spruce it up a little project.

We did get to drive it for a week before I tore it down

Got a B&B catback with X-Pipe on the way...soon I think. Wish they would e-mail me and let me know if they built it and sent it yet.

Last year watching TV one Saturday AM I remember a local TV interview, in Los Angeles, on KCAL .... The Tonight Show Host-his names escapes me. Anyway, he's a huge Gearhead with a Hanger in Burbank loaded with stuff. He was asked what's your favorite sound and he said ' ZR1, B & B, X-pipe and Headers '. His 2nd favorite was a P51 ( Freestyle Prop Fixed Wing ).

The guy has every imaginable mode of transportation and he said the ZR1 was his favorite sound.

Was he talkin C4 or C6 ?

Now I remember his name, Leno. Jay Leno. He referred to the C4 ZR1 specifically.

I have a Corsa but started with a B&B. One day I would like to go back to the B&B no cats & X-pipe. I like loud, really don't listen to the radio and if I do I like that loud also. I am happy with the Corsa that's why I'm in no rush to make the switch

Watson headers, no cats, 3"B&B's (old style), Xpipe.

The most wicked sound is this system with mufflers off. I tried this after watching Mark Haibeck do it on his stock system at the drag strip. With 3" dumps it sounds like an insane shriek at 7K.
It actually drew a crowd after a run at the local strip,...WTF!!... Scared all the little ricers.
