GMPP Cat back installed W00t!!!!
Just got done last night installing my GMPP cat-back...The thing was a breeze to install...Mind you I have NEVER done anything to a car but it is very self explanitory. I took some video and pictures of doing it and once I get some time I will get them posted....
The thing sounds awesome too...Not ricy at all. Again once I get some time I load up some good before and after sound clips....
As far as performance go I did not really notice an increase for the in town 40 MPH driving, however I did open it up on some back roads and once I got in the 4,000RPM range I did notice a little bit of difference....A little more Power. I am definatly happy with the purchance.

ok guys i have CTS and i know alot of guys opver on my forum have been adding on the CTS v exhaust to the reg CTS, adds some power but nice grumbble, and the best part is most of the CTS V guys sell them for 100 bucks casue they are just taken up space, now my question can this be done with the SS to the LS..... ?

yes but you would most likly have to weld the ss exhaust to the ls...in ordered to get the stock exhaust off you have to cut it...go with the gmpp its got a great sound..really deep not ricy at all

I could not be more satisfied with the GMPP Sport Catback. The thing makes me want to drive my car for hours.
Also Tom at http://crateenginedepot.com will run another group buy on these pretty soon. Keep an eye for the awesome deal.

Yeah, when I had mine put on (a saturday) I drove seriously, for about 3 hours just listening to it. It's that good!
I'm happing with it. Nice rumble to it, not ricey at all, has it little backfires/pops every now and again. I love it though!

I'd like to hear the GMMP touring version because everyone seems to have the performance version and if I ever changed the exhaust on this thing it'd have to be relativly quiet.
