You tell us... After we finish the cold air intake system ~1 month. What would you like us to manufacture next for the SS/TC. Keeping in mind "true performance" is what we are based around. Fabrication in metal (steel and aluminum) is out specialty.

Let us know.

I would guess a better flowing downpipe would be in order.

Is the pipe diameter for the catback on the SS/TC the same as the one on the SS/SC, Aaron?

Direct bolt up, to the stock turbo and then to the stock cat back? Including a cat converter? What material? What price range would you like to see?

I will have to measure ours tomorrow, to be honest we have been working on the intake so much we have not had time to look over the rest of the car.

A new turbo manifold and turbo upgrade will be in the future, however first some additional "programming" needs to get worked out to support this.

A nice turbo-back exhaust?
A nice downpipe?
A nice intercooler?

I really don't know too much about performance modifications, so I'm not sure what size/what material. But I am sure you guys know what you are doing...

Keep them coming, we will put together a poll tomorrow with the top 10 and that way we can "narrow" it down more. In the mean time keep posting ideas.
