Ok guys I need suggestions on the best HP increase Mod
Currently have a stage 1 in the process of buying 2.9" pulley and have Air Box mod.
Gonna have $500.00 to spend so this will need to be with installation. As I don't have any tools to do this myself I have a tech at work that will do stuff for me on the side. Also want to keep the warranty.
I was thinking about Ther GMPP performance catback. But what would the gains be?

So suggest away

And if I decide to get the catback what tip looks best IYO?

 

with exhaust you wont see huge gains, only around10-12,but it will help all around with future mods. I have the performance exhaust and it sounds sweet. Straight cut tip looks good.

 

the exhaust will sound great. not huge gains, but enough. what i did (and your tech could easily do if this 17 year old kid did it) is cut the tac welds holding the old exhaust tip on, then i simply just tac'd the old one on to the new pipe but recessed more. i personally love the look and the best part is it was free.

 

well i looked at how much it would cost and looking like $458.00 AND dont think he would intall it for 50. any other ideas?

 

if your dead set on warranty, you have very few options left to you.

GMPP catback and GMPP honed manifold, or the dual pass cooling kit.

of those, the catback will be your best bang for the buck.
at about 10hp, and a very nice sound.

the manifold wont do alot, and your not making enough power to really benefit alot from the dual pass.

 

if you have a jack and a couple stands you could do it yourself. There's a how-to on the site. It's really not hard, just bolts up.

 

Really? I thought there was some cutting and welding u had to do

Ok finding out how easy it will be to install this Im going with the cat back man cant wait

 

yeah it took about 20 minutes to install my cat back, but we had a hoist

 

it honestly took me like 30 mins to get my old exhaust off and probably no more than 10 to bolt the new one up.

 

2.5" and 60's or juice

 

Can you get an all inclusive GOOD n20 kit for under $500?

 

Is it just me, but 90 percent of your posts mention your 2.5 pulley or some connection to it. I think its understood. Just sayin

 

Install it yourself. I did. All you need to do is borrow someones power saw and cut the old one off then install the new one. The GMPP Performance is all bolt on. The clicking that comes with the stock exhaust I also noticed that its not there anymore with the new one lol.

also directions comes with it.

 

giddy up thanks all. going skiing wed-sunday so I'm trying to decide if I should order it before I leave or after I get back? Anyone know about how long it takes to ship?

 

took like 7 business days to canada.

 

^^ agreed

 

Well if everything goes as I have planned, I have the pulley ordered. tomorrow should have the catback ordered. Gonna have the pulley installed while im gone then when I get back gonna put the catback on. What a fun filled week of excitement!!

yea apparently he didnt read the part about staying with warranty. And I would like to keep my engine for more that 30k miles

 

my car is warrantied

stop being a poon and come back to the dark side

 

A tune is the best bang for the buck.

 

depends on the mods

He asked a question, i gave him my answer. Prove me wrong

 

Ive just seen your posts and they always have to do with your setup. Just pointing it out. I think everyone knows.

 

Only when people ask, i will give them a honest opinion. If they want power and are willing to pay sure. I find it relevant to talk about my setup becuase of the power it makes. Most post are to inform people sorry if you read mine alot

 

Thanks for the respectful response. By the way, how much would one have to invest to reach your setup from stock form?

 

Haha to much man. I love my car though and all together a little over 4k but i have nothing stock on the car besides the internals, and all free labor to. So it would cost anyone else a little more.

 

Have you dynoed?
