On Today's Episode of the RPM Web Series, we get to work on a Chevy SS exhaust system. We baseline a c6 z06 and tune a 2010 Camaro with a TVS2300 supercharger, that doesn't exactly put down what it should...

    On one hand I'd be pissed thinking I look like a fool running my car in that condition (2010 Camaro). On the other hand I'd be so happy with the fix & tune results I'd quickly forget about the mistakes. I wonder 🤔🤨 how many races that owner lost thinking he had a badass power adder Camaro 🤣. Great job as usual RPM! 😎😍

    Good discussion on the rush to swap OE parts. OEM engineers aren't stupid and generally think of a lot more stuff than the average aftermarket company. That's not to say they don't ever get anything wrong or make compromises a go-fast type wouldn't, but one shouldn't always be so quick to throw out their work.
