New toys for the Balt
Well tomorrow morning when i get off work, I will be heading to the dealer to get my GMPP manifold and Performance Catback installed. Tonight is gonna be a long night.... and i have a sneaking suspicion i will be using a lot of gas this weekend ;)

Why not install it yourself?
|
There's nothing like flooring your vehicle just to hear your exhaust every two mins!:lol: Try to get a soundclip and let us know if you feel any difference with the manifold and cat back.

i'll see what i can do for you. oh you guys aren't even gonna believe this, my buddy just called and told me they just found someone with a manifold and it won't be in till monday or tuesday!! damn it man, no fun for me this weekend!!!! i ordered the parts last week!!! man my weekend is ruined already Don't worry once its all done it will be well worth the wait. Did you get the touring exhaust or the sport? |
Yeah, its gonna make for a long weekend. I've been fighting with myself whether to buy them or not for about 2 months, finally convinced myself to get them and i get to wait some more! I went with the sport exhaust it like the raspier sound it has, i'm hoping it sound even better in person than in the audio file, not that it sounded bad. I'm really curious to see how the manifold and exhaust combo sound.
|
enjoy the rumble haha
|
I got the sport catback and i love the way it sounds! You wont be dissapointed. I'm curious though if the manifold will make any difference.
|
i had that manifold for like 2months and got rid of it due to the fact i didnt feel that big of an increase
|
I was going to ask why you wasted money on the items but fuck it. Do some research before you buy two products that yield shitty gains next time.
|
its not so much gains i'm looking for, i'm going for all gmpp. with all gmpp parts i'm guaranteed no fitment issues and the stuff is designed to work ideally with the car. if i were going for gains i'd have a twin screw, turbo setup or nitrous.
however its an 07 and a daily driver. i want to spunk it up a little and keep my warranty as well as have minimal amounts of problems. so hows that for research? just because YOU feel they are shitty does not mean that i won't like them. |
oh snap!!!!
|
Blah warranty.....you start putting GMPP on and something breaks I can hear the dealership now saying well you abused the car.

could go ahead and put a 3 inch on and LOSE power!!!!! wish id have thought of that. |
I did it for exactly the same reasons..................warrenty!!! I bought my parts from CED and had the dealer install here at home. No worrys for me. It saved money buying from the states also. I can tell you that although you have some gains, it's not going to launch you into space................I'll save that shit for when my lease is up and warrenty has ended to buy other stuff that's been tested by all on this website. I have pics of the install of stage 2, the gmpp manifold and performance cat-back in my gallery if you want to see. Had all installed at the dealer for no more than $300.00CAD in Toronto, Ontario, Canada!!!

yeah your right. why put an exhaust on with dyno proven 10-12WHP gains....when you

if i remember correctly i think i seen it posted somewhere on here that the manifold and exhaust netted like 20hp. not to bad, its not going to be a rocket ship or anything thing but at the same time i'm getting a killer deal and my dealer will back it 100% i personally think thats a fair trade.
|
I raced my friend who had everything i had....our only difference was i had the GMPP header and he had the CA header....3rd gear he would pull away from me. Needless to say i ripped that header off the following weekend and put on CA's
But thats just my opinion about the GMPP header. |

i did the same thing to my friends ss sc a couple of days ago. those 2 parts are not impressive at all
|
it sounds really freaken nice. im not a fan of the tip you get
|
for most boosted cars intake and exhasut give a pretty decent gain, I know on my car i picked up 40rwhp/tq from an intake and exhaust~ he cobalts seem to pick up about 20 so they have a better setup stock than I did but thats still darn good.
|
well after more and more delays my goodies finally arrived! got them installed and i have to say, it sounds great. its a lot louder than stock but not annoying loud. the performance increase is noticeable. nothing spectacular but its definitely there. all in all i'm glad i got these.
|
sry to get off topic but i can get a brand new stage 2 kit w/install for only $465 usd. i know the service manager at my dealer
