4k towards upgrades need some insight.

Looking for the best bang for my buck on this. I have an 07 ss/sc bone stock and am about to have 4g to put into this car. I want to upgrade exhaust pulley down or maybe 3.0 Tvs. This is a DD right now but soon to be stored for winters.

Just don't know if it is worth it but would the TVS be worth it and what are supporting mods for it to obtain good power and efficiency.

Any bit of info is appreciated. Thank you.

No. Unless your going for the unique factor.

TVS or Turbo if your getting spendy.

Do tons of research if you go the turbo route, and your better off peicing together your own kit.

Oh also, I'd reccomend OTTP Rotated tranny mounts to eliminate any wheel hop problems, now or future.

I do not want twin charge. Hmm I was leaning towards the TVS but I have also been looking into turbo set ups as well. See what some other people say =D

Impressive. Well I may not go TVS I may stay on the m62 and get the zzp stg3 w/ S3 h/e and ottp longtube catted with gmpp performance cat back with rotated stg 2 trans mounts from ottp and also Option B with bracket kit. What kind of power could I expect here? Would like to save some $ for zzp head job.

if your getting the longtubes i suggest go catless and if it throws a cel then you can get it cleared when you get your tune once you get s3
