FULLY DIPPED LS
Little excessive IMO.
The tips were pushed out more than what I had them before I dropped the car off last year. I had them pushed back in more yesterday when I got the resonators installed, now they might be pushed in too far, haha.
The car sounds great now with the resonators. No more raspy,popping sounds on medium accelration or deceleration. It sounds so smooth, well to me it does. Dont think I'll have time today to do an exhaust video, maybe tomorrow, but I'll start uploading the dyno vids up on youtube to try and post them today.

lmaoShin slashers!
I like how KC installed mine, they look almost like the stock placement.
Good to hear...my aeros are on their way. $80 for a pair of polished ones. I think thats a great deal.
Love the sound of the bassanis as they are, very exotic and menacing, but the drone can be annoying at times and not being able to back-up the sound with power kinda sucks. Also, my high flow cats are so high flow that my exhaust almost sounds cat-less lol i hope these fix the rasp and some of the drone.

I know that term from personal experience with my old 87 LSC. I had those big 3.5" or 4" slash cut tips. Slash cut is an appropriate name for 'em. lol

Wow that much torque must put your head back on the headrest when u get on it
May wanna go back a page or two to catch up. There is a reason the boost is where it currently is.

Awesome! Glad you finally got it back. That torque is impressive, I can't wait to see what it will do when you crank it up.

337 lb ft of torque is fantastic!
and the power holds out up to 6000 rpm too. should be a sweet ride.

The easiest diesel to swap in would be the jaguar AJ-V6D 2.7L used in the Jaguar S-type. 200-207 hp and 325 ft-lbs. There is also a 3L version of this engine as well that is found in the Land Rover Discovery 4; 241 - 253hp and 443 lbs-tq.
Downside these engines never made it Stateside.

Not really. You should typically get more torque than horsepower, but it all depends on the engine and the setup.

Tq=hp
Torque and horsepower are equal at 5252 RPM. It's inherent in the equivalence formula.

No long epic video, sorry, just been busy and out of the house. I had a little family emergency to attend to. I uploaded a few videos and from the dyno, I wanted to do an exhaust video as well and post them together. If I can't get them both done today, I'll atleast post the one from the dyno.
