Wow, thanks for the kind words, everyone! I took some pics with my cell phone but this weekend I'll break out the DSLR and take some proper pics to post.
And true to my first post here on 1/5/12, I made the change within my 30 day target. Couldn't be more pleased, my MCSS is a blast to drive. Just dropped a K&N filter in there until I can get a K&N intake system.
An exhaust change is definitely needed. Love the look of this one but it needs more sound! I've used Dynomax Ultraflow mufflers in the past (made by Walker, I believe) but it seems Magnaflow uses the same straight-through design. Hmmmm.....

Rick and Frank, thanks! Rick, I'll take your color comments under advisement. 
I was able to make it to a test track last night and make a couple of quick videos of the speedometer.
Video 1, 0-90
Video 2, 60-130
The Monte's definitely a mover! Supposed to rain again soon, I'll see about getting some pictures taken before then.

Pics of the MCSS on an overcast day...
Taken at the Hanover War Memorial, Hanover, Virginia. Haven't touched the car, as far as cleaning it, since more rain is pending.

i know what you are going thru. i just bought my 07 in december. it only has 32,000 on her and this weather is killing me so i go out start it up and look and listen. lol i paid just under 19,000 and i refuse to drive it in ****ty weather so the old lady is furious! "you buy a car to look at it in the garage? your sick!" i get alot of that.
