OK so my American racing headers and y pipe finally came in. So did my 18x9.5 ALL BLACK c6 rims,my new zinc drilled and slotted rotors and Hawk brake pads. My subframe connectors,adjustable lower control arms and relocation brackets. A double adjustable panhard bar, plus all the goodies for my headers install,gaskets,new locking bolts and some other stuff.

Love the pic, you are in the same boat I am in lots of boxes with nothing installed.

**silverWS6** · 04-14-2010, 11:25 PM

How could you just have boxes sitting there? I get a box and i open it and install things that same day!

Except my cam cause i still need springs, oil pump, and stuff

I feel your pain. I've had 243 heads, LS6 intake and a comp cam in my garage for like 6 months now

You are going to be very pleased with the results. Are you doing the install yourself?

**bpopham22** · 04-15-2010, 01:42 PM

naw i dont have the tools or equipment to do any of it so im gonna have to have a shop do it

**Lunatikgixxer** · 04-15-2010, 02:32 PM

are those c6 wheels going to fit right on there? or are u using spacers?

**bpopham22** · 04-15-2010, 02:54 PM

naw i called and the guy said that the factory setting should work perfectly, no offsets,spacers or anything....basically running the same size tire that comes stock on a 17..only an inch bigger rim

**Lunatikgixxer** · 04-15-2010, 07:28 PM

If you think about it you can actually buy a jack, jack stands, a small tool kit and other random tools to do your exhaust. It probably will be the same price or cheaper than the shop. Just an option plus you will have the tools for life now.

Yea and you could also do your suspension while your at it. Suspension is easiest i think, basically just take the part off and put the new one on.

**Vertiviper** · 04-16-2010, 11:53 AM

good lord..it looks like "basballny2"s room..just parts everywhere waiting to be installed

**Spaz** · 04-16-2010, 12:06 PM

nice!!! can i have the bubble wrap???

**bpopham22** · 04-16-2010, 01:08 PM

yea thats actually my "Beer Pong" room so i get to show it off to all the ladies when they come over on the weekends......and its only gonna get bigger, and as far as doing it myself,some things yes ill do......but honestly i think the headers would be a bitch so im gonna pay to have em installed..not to mention im gonna get it tuned that same day so im just gonna take it to a shop, Nelson performance actually, they said the headers alone would be like 425 so i figured thats not too bad

**bpopham22** · 04-16-2010, 01:09 PM

another reason too is that basically i want EVERYTHING done at once so when i get the car back its like a whole new experience, i think it would feel alot more drastic that way even if doing it yourself is more rewarding

**Too Fast** · 04-16-2010, 01:14 PM

+2 on the pics when done. Also, take some things out of the box and show us some new shiny stuff! I like your idea about getting it all done at once, then it will feel like a whole different car indeed.
