Replying to: jjmjgnx (Jun 16, 2006 11:28 am) I can't say for sure what the milage is going to do as I have only put 40 miles of in town driving on it - but right now I am getting about 5.5% better milage according to the DIC. I don't want to hang my hat on that though, as 40 miles isn't a long enough run to get a true comparison. I think the 700 mile road trip this upcoming weekend will be a real good indicator though, as I made the same trip a week ago, and unless it rains, the conditions should be fairly similar and should provide a good back to back comparison of stock verses the Zoomer's system.

Replying to: 73shark (Jun 16, 2006 11:33 am) The factory system on mine was nearly whisper quiet at idle and even more so during full throttle (lots of noise from the intake side - whooshing sound from the exhaust side). With the Zoomer's system there is an actual distinct exhaust note under all three of the conditions. The sound quality is very nice - it has a deep rumble type note that puts me to mind somewhat of my friend's C-4 Vette (if that helps). Inside the cabin with the windows up, you can hear the note at idle and part throttle but it is not annoying and doesn't generate any funky resonance/drone. At full throttle it is a little louder than part throttle naturally, but it also competes with the noise that comes from the factory intake system.  I will say, that as far as I am concerned, the note is very rich sounding under all of the above conditions. (I am trying to get a couple wav/mpeg files made up of each of the three conditions - but my camera isn't co-opating with me too well at the moment.) To answer the sorcing question, I purchased my system directly from Zoomers as part of a group purchase. Installation does not require you to reuse any part of the factory system after the cat. The new system comes with a new flex joint installed and all that is required is to bolt up the system to the flange after the cat, place the mounts into the factory hangers and install the supplied clamps.  Hope that helps! If not, feel free to drop me a line. Thanks! -- TuscoTodd

Hi guys. Well I just bought my 07 Tahoe 10 days ago and I want to take my SUV to get the sound system installed etc,. Now my question is/are: I wnet to Circuit city and they told me that if I wanted the system installed THAT my Onstar service will NO LONGER work. Is that true? Becuase some stores say it will work but some say it won't work. I am kinda confuse here! Thanks FJ |

Yep this is my third Topic in less than 15 minutes...lol... Now I noticed last night that the steering wheels of my 07 tahoe is kinda loose. Is it normal? If you do't know what I am talking about just go ahead and take a couple of minutes of your time and grab the Steering wheel with both hands and try like pull in out the steering wheel. NOT HARD just something smoth. If you feels like is kinda loose this means that it is normal. I already called my Local Dealer for an Appointment tommorrow morning but if I get some feed back tonight it will save me the trip and a little hassle. Thanks again. FJ |

Replying to: frank07 (Jun 19, 2006 5:02 pm) So I had them take out the cleansweep and change my radio for an Eclipse AVN6600 and I love it. So doing that the Onstar, chimes, turning signal sounds and my parking assist sensor where gone. They told me that they (PAC-aftermarket modules/interface/adapters)are working on it and supposably it was going to be out by the end of the month. With that we can hook up all our chimes, onstar and parking assist. I paid another $80 for the steering wheel controler, witch can be handy. I hope this helps.
