Hey All, Need To Start Over

Hey Guys,

 

it's been a while. I need some help. I parked my 03 Red SS today and I bought an 04 Arrival Blue SS that is bone stock other than the mickey mouse exhaust they have installed on it, I drove it three hours home today and my brain hurts from the drone. My 03 Red SS still has the factory exhaust at 190000KM with no leaks. Anyhow, I need to get an exhaust system and I have decided on the dyantech front end and I am up in the air on what cat back system to attach to it. I want to stay with a single outlet not duals.

 

I like the looks of the magnaflow but I want it to sound close to stock. wheatley will get my spare ecu to fix up once I am have the exhaust installed.

 

I need some numbers since I did not write anything down when I did the red truck,

 

What is the spark plug wire part number for 8.5-8.8 wires and I think I am running tr6 plugs. What is the best CAI lately. Mine is the the original FIPK with the chrome tube.

 

Exhaust is the major I am not even going to drive the truck until this is fixed it is like driving a small block with cherry bombs and turns downs before the axle right now. UGGHHHH

 

Any updates to the tranny's my 03 has the transgo kit with the corvette servo 1-2 installed right now. with royal purple and a T/A diff girdle.

 

Thanks in advance for the advice.

 

I will post some pics of the pair when I snap some pics tomorrow.

 

Regards,

 

Dave

Towing Package.

 

I got the window tinting fixed on the blue one, had the carpets and headliner shampooed and dried out properly. Had the magnaflow installed yesterday, What a difference over the mickey mouse exhaust that was on there, I really should have had them take some pics of it. I got the power back. I ordered all my tranny parts, T/A diff girdle, new trans pan. CAI, wires, Plugs, serp belt and all new fluids this weekend.

 

I am finding somethings different in the 04 over the 03. like my climate control on the 03 I just hit auto and set the dial, I have never had to touch the snowflake for ac on the 04 I do, the seats on the 04 feel a lot higher than on the 03 as well. Maybe it's just me.

Damn, I want my day to start off like that :thumbs:

 

Corsa Touring sounds like a good choice, not loud driving normal. Give it a little wot and it screams.

 

Edit - I forgot to mention Gibson exhausts. My older brother had the dual extreme (exhaust tipes behind each tire) and it was only slightly louder than stock on the 5.3 Vortec
