Sounds like some great parts! I will have to check out that thread at home as PT.com is blocked for me at work.

Thank you

There is room for an X pipe, I didn't know to ask for one when my exhaust was done. You can't follow the exhaust cut out pattern on the 2nd cross member but the headers and mufflers might still hang lower than the pipe would in that spot even if it dropped a little bit.

The TCI test Camaro switched to an X pipe. Check out the pics in post 12 here:

Had some more fun at the SCCA El Toro autocross this past weekend. It was the longest autocross course I have run and a total blast. I will be hitting up these El Toro events whenever possible now. I'm a believer! Next time I just need to buy some x-runs in advance.



We had a decent turnout with two folks coming up from San Diego and a few other local Camaros showing up. Thought it appears most people made the long trek up to Camarillo.

Car looks great Chad! Camarillo had alot of 5th Gens and Mustangs on Sunday due to the Pony Car challenge and I would bet those guys run SCCA normally. Not a lot of old iron this week, three total I think. Sat was the a Corvette day and pretty big turnout I'm told.
