Get rid of that 40 series and put 3 inches from the cat to the muffler. Since you have gears and LSD you most likely won't loose much low end and specially if you change that S pipe you notice a smoother excellerating car. The muffler you change to is all your personal preference. But, I recommend an adjustable Borla.1 of a kind<p>Red 97 Camaro<p>Modifications: <br />SLP CAI, RK Sport Headers, Car Sound High Flow Cat, 3\" piping<br />3\" Steel driveshaft, SFC\'s, Panhard Rod, MAC Torque Arm<br />Manual Fan Switch<p>Best E/T:<p>60\' 2.152<br />330 6.271<br />1/8th 9.704<br />MPH 71.93

I doubt that's the problem. I have one too and I don't have a topend problem...
I'm agreeing with Keith - Part of it's your stereo. The 3.42 gears may be contributing also. While they're good for off-the-line, they'll slow you down up top.
Other than that, who knows? Might be an ignition or fuel problem.
EDIT: Is your SES light on? If so, what codes is it throwing?

I didn't know he had a cut out... I don't see it in his sig... But with the ported TB he is probably running rich at WOT. Make some runs with autotap/obd-2/ or some other scanning software. Check out the O2 reedings. I think you want to be in the .85 to .89 range. But I'm still a novice at the tuning.
If he is running rich then a maft or maft+ should be able to solve the problem.Keith - 99 'maro - White M5 - bumpstick and boltons - 13.65 @ 101 N/A

I'd get the car dyno'd first. you may just be hallucimanating the power loss :D get it dyno'd, then see what's up. bigger piping and more intake stuff is all i can recommend. do you have the ssm pp? that'll help a lot.2001 Arctic White Firebird<br />T-Tops, 3.42 rear gear stock<br />Mods:K&N Air Filter,Whisper Air Induction Lid, maf screen removed, raised air box, Kumho Ecsta 712 255-50-ZR16 tires, BMR stb<br />Mods not installed yet: FTRA, SLP Lsd/Differential cover<br />Near Future Mods: HPP3, GMMG 3\" Exhaust , 1LE Swaybars, Transgo Shift Kit, MSD-DIS-4 w/ Accel Coil-Packs, Turquoise Blue Neon Underbody Kit, BMR Adj.

Well I don't know much about N20. But if you ran a 13.8 off a 50 shot you must be running pretty good.
Like I mentioned b/f about the only thing I can think of is tuning with a maft or maft+ and some scanning software.Keith - 99 'maro - White M5 - bumpstick and boltons - 13.65 @ 101 N/A

No codes are being throw the 13.8 with the 50 shot is good but when i run the 75 shot it dies i shouls be about 4 mph faster et and a quicker ET time from my timeslip 12secv6 or james told me i am loseing topend bigtime cause with his 75 shot he ran a 13.0 and with my 75 shot i am running 13.56. I know differnt cars but they should be that far off and he aggress as well cause i pull a 1.7 60 foot and that is what he pulls with a 120 shot.<b><a href=\"http://www.sick-sixx.com\" target=\"_blank\">SICK-SIXX MEMBER</a></b><br />NA 14.345 with a 1.863 60 foot<br />Nitrous 13.03@99.5 with a 1.63 60 foot<br /><br />2000 Camaro 3.8L A4: USE TO HAVE Comp Cam 210/220 .535/.547 113lsa 111 I/C, Port and Polished Heads, NX Wet Kit 100 Shot, CPRA made by CP, RK Sport Headers

I bet this problem only happens with the N2O. I'm gonnna take a stap at it and guess that you might be having a fuel deficiency problem. What RPM do you have the N2O set to? If you have it on after 5000 RPM then fuel might be the problem. I'm no expert but adding N2O and not increasing your fuel efficiency might be your problem.1 of a kind<p>Red 97 Camaro<p>Modifications: <br />SLP CAI, RK Sport Headers, Car Sound High Flow Cat, 3\" piping<br />3\" Steel driveshaft, SFC\'s, Panhard Rod, MAC Torque Arm<br />Manual Fan Switch<p>Best E/T:<p>60\' 2.152<br />330 6.271<br />1/8th 9.704<br />MPH 71.93
