#1 Cat-Back exhaust
#2 Intake

Check out www.crateenginedepot.com for all the GM goodies -- look on the left side of their webpage and click on Cobalt/G5 Parts.

Call Tom at CED 1-800-441-5150 and see if he has any GMPP performance exhaust deals left. You can install the exhaust yourself -- there are 2 bolts/nuts you have to remove, and you have to cut the original exhaust pipe in-two just above the rear axle assy. The new exhaust comes in three pieces and is held together with clamps.

There are several intakes available -- you're choice here -- I prefer the GMPP Performance Intake.

Red's got it. Git yourself a catback exhaust and then an intake setup.



Red: what did your GMPP touring exhaust sound like? why did you ditch it?

The GMPP Touring was just TOO quiet for me. I knew what the Performance sounded like....had it on my 06 LS but I wanted a little more for my SS/NA. I sold the touring exhaust to a YC.com member.

CED has the Random Technology 2 3/4" stainless steel exhaust so I decided to give it a try -- it is very deep and distinct. I like the sound of it. It might be too loud for some locations/cities.

Are there any benefits of getting the GMPP exhaust over a Borla set up? Other than the benefit to my wallet lol.

Borla design the GMPP exhaust, so they are pretty much the same thing. Also GMPP cost alot less.

I just installed the GMPP Performance Exhaust and it sounds great. It sounds nothing like a ricer. It was very simple to install took alittle over an hour. I installed it myself because dealership wanted $200 for installation.
