MRT Exhaust - Version 2.0

When I bought the 2010 V6 Camaro, one of the first things I did was replace the stock mufflers with an axle back system from MRT.  The new MRT axle back system transformed the quiet V6 into a roaring power plant!  For details on the system, including videos, you can click here. Well after a few months, Scott from MRT decided to come up with another axle back setup, one with a more refined sound, one that wasn't quite as aggressive as the current axle back system but still had that sports performance sound.  So with Scott knowing that I'm always open to trying new things out, he gave me a call to see if I wanted to try out this new axle back system... and of course I jumped at the chance!  And with that I was off to MRT!

Turning Down The HEAT!

Summer winds down, bringing cool nights to Michigan.  That means cool air in the mornings!  The last few weeks I've notice the the Camaro is incredibly peppy in the morning.  Cool air means increased performance, but the Camaro seems more responsive to cool air than previous cars I've owned.  So I decided to do a  little digging and a little testing!

0 To 60 As Advertised?

Scouring the magazines and the review sites, it seems that the most common rating for the 0 to 60 MPH time for the 2010 V6 Camaro is 6.0 seconds.  I have found a couple of places were it is listed at 6.1 seconds. Since I have an MSD Dashhawk, which has a number of performance tests including a 0 to 60 MPH test, I figured I would try out my new Camaro to see if it lived up to the reviews.

The Great Exhaust Experiment!

One thing about the new 2010 V6 Camaro.... it's quiet!  And well, to be polite let's just say the stock mufflers are not exactly astheically pleasing.  I knew something needed to be DONE!   So I called on my friends at MRT!  While MRT is known for thier extraordinary work in the Mustang world, they are certainly not known for their work on Camaros!  But, there is no one else more I would to trust to work on my car other than Scott Hoag and the crew at MRT!
