Exhaust system is 2.5 inch into a dual in/out Magnaflow with a built in X pipe with both exit pipes on the right side behind the rear tire. It has a awesome sound !!

The truck is awesome to drive & starts with all stock gauges & ac working just like factory. It gets 15-16 mpg around town with a little better on the hwy depending on how fast I drive.

I needed a upgrade on the front brakes so I installed the C5 ZO6 calipers with C4 13inch rotors to fit under my 17 inch wheels. Def worth it !!

Stock rotor with Vette rotor



Stock S10 rotors cut down to hubs



C5 ZO6 Calipers

Cool setup you got there. I want to do a S-10 Standard cab W/LSx 6spd. Eventually I will.

Thanx Guys !!

I really love this truck & couldnt be happier with how it turned out.

I am gonna get another pcm & have it tuned for MPG right now it get 15-16 & would like a little better.

Some race style seats & a Momo steering wheel is high on the list.
