i have a grand to spend. what mods are the best in cost and performance.

 

ott stage 1

and a heat exchanger

 

ottp stage1 and rotated mounts(if you want to drag)
ottp stage1 and tuned meth injection(agressive DD setup)
ottp stage1 and intake and h/e(pretty nice DD setup)

or if you don't want power:
ottp rotated mounts, TTR upper mount, front/rear sway bars, strut bar

 

which is ott? this is the first i have seriously started looking

 

over the top performance

 

What mods do you have now?

 

the only thing i have is engalls torque dampner. that's it. how about the ls4 tb?

 

LS4 throttle body isn't really worth it in my oppinion. unless you have a TVS swap and are pushing some mid 300whp numbers

 

i would say a down payment on another car

 

well that ain't gonna happen anytime soon just looking for more get up and go and ricer ownage

 

a grand.... what really wakes these cars up is the exhaust. i would invest in a header back.

 

get ott stage 1 injen cai and zzp heat exchanger

 

i would never get a power mod unless i had something to support it. ie. smaller pulley - heat/exchanger.

 

Tune
Injectors
Exhaust
75 Shot

 

what do you think about the gmpp touring exhaust? and the ott stage 1

 

crap... well IMO. get a 2.5 exhaust with midlength header/dp setup. ott1 is g2g! i would not get it unless i had the supporting mods as stated above. get the exhaust first and intake then get the kit.

 

exhaust, intake, tune.

 

is there a cat back that would be good or does it have to be full i had a full on my last car and hated the drone of it on the highway

 

Tune +injectors (42)+ pully (3.0)= 400
Kick assed nitrous setup and 100 shot= 600

There is your 1k

Or... header and DP combo + air box mod and the nitrous.... 1k again

 

ott stage 1 kit is great on everybody that i have talked to and has it. i have one on the way right now this week should b nice. get the stage 1 kit from them and a heat exchanger. then if u dont have intake or full exhaust upgrade that. if u dont want to stage then get full exhaust and intake first if u want.

 

The GMPP touring sounds great , but if i had to do it again i would buy a Corsa touring for the 2.5'' size. Do you have /or are you worried about the GM warranty? If so that changes some of the parts you should buy.

 

the gm warranty is up in 10k i am not worried after that to much i am getting a new head put on it i'll get it back tomorrow. other than that it is the only real issue have been having. what is the ott stg1 bring the horsepower up to and how is it with a stock exhaust or just a cat back

 

ott stage 1= better than gms. bigger injectors and smaller pulley up to240-260 hp on the car depending on ur other mods so the more mods the better hp you will gain then getting a better tune than what they ecu they kit bring has will help more. also cooling mods you will need maybe an extra heat exchanger or a dual pass. or meth

 

i'm going to suggest the OTTP stage 1 kit with 2.8" pulley, injen cai, & the OTTP h/e kit. for $1k, that's some really good mods and you notice a huge difference. and then when you have another $1k to spend on parts, i'd recommend getting the CTI header/downpipe combo & cat-back from OTTP. and then save up some more money and get the the rotated tranny mounts from OTTP, these will completely eliminate wheel hop so you wont have to worry about your axles.

 

My first mod was a ingalls TD. If the rotated mounts had been around i would have done those before adding anything else.

The mount's are going to be my next purchase, i'm sick of worrying about the tranny case, and babying this thing out of 1st .
