Yeah thats it though, not doing another thing to this car performance related until I build the LSX for it. then it will be injectors, axles, and D1 @ about 10lbs and it will be completely done. Car only has 1700 miles on it right now.

You got quite the open heart surgery going on there.Looks like you are a Pro. at doing those Mods.By the way I meant to ask you what type of Exhaust system did you install on Jewel.
I still have the stock, SS/RS, and was looking to make it sound a little more aggressive or would it not change much since mine is a Automatic rather than the Manual.

Tuning isn't too too hard as long as you have a wideband

Jewel is Nicole's Rs v6. I put the mrt v2 on for her

I have the xs power kit with cats. It's essentially the American racing kit with a little cheaper stainless. 1-7/8" header primaries into 3" all the way back

And not a pro, just learn as I go lol

So the header Primaries going into the 3" all the way back gives you the nice sound.
So just replacing the exhaust system won't give it much of a bark attitude with the Auto.
