Upgrades

If you could only upgrade one thing for our car what would it be? exhaust, downpipe, etc..

Or

What order would/did you guys start making changes? I just got a new 2010 ss so i was wondering where would be the best place to start.

All upgrades would be in vain without a tune which by the way will net you the most power by far.

So the real question is aftermarket or factory tune

Ok then where would you get it tuned? and how does most of this stuff work with the warranty, or does it void it?

for me upgrading 1 thing isnt possible so i can answer this question truthfully.....i would upgrade the whole car itself haha. gms1 or trifecta stealth tune(as long as they dont put it in competitive mode) are your best bets for warrenty.

their are several tunes availible. trifecta, hp tune, gm stage 1, and the ppc tuner hahn used to carry idk if they still do. gm stage 1 will not void your warrenty but it is the most conservative tune of the ones listed

I heard always start from the back and work your way forward (unless your engine is in the back..)

GM Turbo Upgrade Kit. Don't be confused by the name, it is a tune and airflow sensors that keeps your GM warranty intact.

Do you a gms1 down pipe for starters you will love it. The turbo wheel upgrade would be smart if you are not going to go to crazy with the car for later...

If you are at all considered about warranty, get GMS1 and call it a day.
