Might want to check on what the GWR means before posting?

Internet can be your friend for information.

And the Camaro V6 is in the high 37 -3800 catagory.

The gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR), or gross vehicle mass (GVM) is the maximum operating weight/mass of a vehicle as specified by the manufacturer[1] including the vehicle's chassis, body, engine, engine fluids, fuel, accessories, driver, passengers and cargo but excluding that of any trailers.[2] The term is used for motor vehicles and trains.

Gross weight is fully loaded, the maximum it should ever weigh.

By the way what have you done to your V6 to get 350HP?

Maybe we are just made to go slow and look good?

It sounds good at low rpm, I love it but above 2k all you really hear is the front end of the car gasping for oxygen lol
Changed the thread huh...
I don't know what exhaust you are hearing but my MRT V2 made a huge difference.

I listen to the mrt v2 it sounds nice. How does it sound at 3k rpm before shifting.

Yes, I tried to hurry up and change title because I had already figured out about the weight and tried to retype before someone posted but you guys are too quick! lol

It purrs louder than the stock exhaust at cruise speed but it's not so obnoxious that it brings unwanted attention.
At 3,000RPM while accelerating it sounds good to me and as the RPM climb it gets even better. Hard to keep your foot out of it.

Looks like I will be changing exhaust again LOL

I am going to give this exhaust a chance since didn't do it earlier because I was still under warranty. I have 1 more year, and I will be getting this. Thank you.

EXIT?? really? WTF... if you create a thread about something, stop changing or deleting what you posted.. Some people behind you, might have the same question or might want the info too. but then everyone is confused if you delete your post. As you can see, fellow camaro @ Camaro5 are very helpful and knowledgable about this car and will jump to help out with any question there is..

On a side note, I think that MRT v2 is one of the nicest exhaust u can add to the V6.. check out the videos in youtube or here in the forum.
