Thanks! These motors are ridiculously awesome. Cheap, reliable and they hold a lot of power!

Open downpipe

MOAR details!
Don't find many single turbo LS setups, hope it doesn't sound like a Subaru with the unequal length exhaust lol.

5.3L L33 (all aluminum), 9.9:1 CR, LS6 cam (204/218), Turbonetics TC76 (.96A/R, journal bearing, 65mm turbine wheel).
It's a completely stock, untouched 50k mile bottom end with ARP head bolts, LS9 head gaskets, Patriot Gold dual valve springs and an LS6 intake.
And thanks... I'm not sure what it's going to sound like but even with the open downpipe it's probably still going to be pretty quiet.
