so ive had my 06 ss/sc since may 2010 and all i have is a megan racing 2.5 cat back. i just went to the zzp site and made a "wish list" for what i think would be a good setup for my car. dont want to be the fastest, but i do want more power.
so this is my cart from zzp. tell me what you guys think! mind you this isnt set in stone just a rough idea.

thanks guys!!


EDIT!!
oh btw its gunna be a dd. im starting a new job as a pepsi merchandiser so ill be driving it all day. if that changes anything.

and this would still be smog legal right?? good ol' cali regulates on us.

Stopped at the injectors and pulley..you will wish you got 60's down the line. Best to start with a 2.8/60's/GM belt

get a 3 inch downpipe and 60# injectors with either a 2.9 or 2.8 pulley, and just get the S3 option on the heat exchanger ALOT BETTER

long tube is good and CAI is good.... dual pass and option b is really good

^^^agreed!! go big from the start so ur not wasting money

ya ^ thats a good bump in power.. how much are you looking for? You could do injectors, belt, tune, and dual pass w/ heat exchanger and be really nice bump...

X eleventy billion! I hate rebuying **** because I initially cheaped out!

RoryT_777

im not sure exactly lol maybe 260-70 ish?? more is ok (but safe) i just have to pay on this car for a few more years so i want it to last..

Delete the downpipe, you won't need it if you're going long tube.

and keeping cali smog things? ugh...that should be fun ummm I dont know what the cali rules are for modding but you could probably do the smaller pully and injectors and tune no problem??

RoryT_777

yeah the smog thing is whats holding me back.. :/

as far as exhaust goes the cat back is fine, and dp is catted. does the header need to be too?

red06SC

You cannot use a factory sized downpipe with a long tube header.

That's why there's an "offroad" option on the header.

You need header only, with cat.

RoryT_777

oh nice. i wasnt sure about that. so cat the header instead?

red06SC

Yep, the long tube design doesn't allow for use of a factory downpipe, its integrated.

RoryT_777

i just want it to ALL be legal the first time bc of smog issues. california is pretty strict.
