We need a thread to talk about cars, show off your rides and ask advice.

I'll start as I need advice lol

My SS needs to sound more like an old school V8.

I currently have:-

*HSV headers
* No cats
* Twin 3 inch mild steel exhaust with body muffler
* rear mufflers

I will be installing 200 cell cats to keep the cops away from the petrol smell (which I love lol)

But I've been told to remove the rear mufflers and replace them with either a straight pipe or J-pipes.

What can do I to make it more grunty?

@Boxer I'm looking at you habibeh lol

Do you have the standard manifold intake
Woah slow down Brockie lol

What's that? Are you talking about the air intake? If you are I have an over the radiator intake directly into the engine.

That's the plan brother. It's a hobby for me now and will pass it on to my kids when I'm gone.
