Need some help
Okay so I already have searched the threads on what to do next. I just would like to get a little more input from you all.
Mods now:
GMPP Performance exhaust
AEM CAI intake
Ingalls torqe damper
Now I still have warranty for a year so major stuff I don't want to do until that is up.
I want a faster car with keeping the stock supercharger.
For my next mod I was thinking on doing a header/dp combo. Right now I'm thinking zzp midlength because of price point and reliability. Now I was also considering going catless. Has anyone done that? And how loud is it? I would like the extra performance but not if i'm going to get pulled over for noise. lol. Also considering other inputs on a header/dp combo.
After that, once warranty is up, I am thinking about doing the zzp stage 3 kit. I would run a 2.8 and get the S3 h/e. Was wondering what I should do for option 1: Oversized tensioner pully, shorter belt, or zzp adjustable tensioner?
Then maybe a custom tune? Would it be worth it or is the tune in the stage 3 kit fine?
Is there anything I should do before one of these or something I could add on top?
Any input helps. Thanks!

umm yeah the stage kits will be the biggest noticeable difference you will ever notice. i got a ottp stage 2 kit with 60s and with a heat exchanger and custom tune. its a huge difference. there stage 2 is about the same as zzp stage 3 kit.

ehh.. no point in getting a shorter belt by its self if that's what you guys are trying to say. I say get a stage kit then get the header dp combo and then a custom tune.

the zzp h.e is better to some. in my opinion they are better for two different reasons. zzp cools a little better but is a flimsy piece of **** and ottp doesn't cool as well (not sure on numbers but i dont think there big in difference) but could probably get ran over by a bus and work perfectly (not literally just trying to get my point across). there both great just whatever u prefer. I prefer working with 2 brothers who i have ment personally who live 1 hour from me over zzps massive company...
