1. 2.8 pulley and hub from smoothflowpulleys.com ($90)
2. 60# injectors and harness from ottperformance.com ($230)
3. custom 3" exhaust with 3" catless downpipe and moroso spiral flow muffler ($300)
4. weapon r secret weapon intake ($174..... pretty cheap price and i figure intakes will perform about the same)
5. custom tune from area 47

this is all because i got a nice size check from insurance after hitting a tire. i know there are other things as far as cooling but i figure this would be a good start. let me know what you think. maybe some suggestions.

 

You know we sell the smoothflow modular pulley system on oursite as well. Figure it would save you some shipping

 

OTT FTW!

Everything looks good, Execpt i would get a stainless steel intake as the alum ones always get holes rubbed in them

 

Get me some please

 

yeah, and you're gonna get $174 worth of life and quality out of it too. they may "perform" the same. but there are definitely HUGE differences

 

Ok....if I go and get 60#'s and a 2.9 pulley, I need a retune right?
What about my exhaust, will stock be fine? All I've done to the exhaust is get a high flow cat...

 

Yes you have to get tuned, And yea you can use your stock exhaust but i would atleast get a axle back kit like this one Linky

 

Yes you need a tune. You will want to get cooling mods eventually.

 

Thats true, You would want to atleast get a heat exchanger, Maybe even meth

 

Ok, Im retarded. Can't find a heat exchanger online. Help?

 

send lsjwannabe a pm. they just came out with a new one. i dont think its on their site yet.

 

Grab the cxracing heat exchanger from ottperformance.com

 

everything u need n listed on there is on ottperformance.com.. i would get headers too they help out a lot.

 

now what brands are stainless steel??? i was looking at the AEMs because i was finding some good prices but they are just powder coated aluminum. what about fujita???

 

Well you used to be able to get one through rebal auto works but i think they have pretty much got out of the cobalt scene, I would wait a until OTT Comes out with theirs

 

well thats no good..... kinda need one faster than that. so if anyone knows please fill me in. AND i would like to go with a magnaflow muffler but i am unsure what sizes will fit. dont need a kit just muffler. no need to be loud just good tone and the best performance.

 

Thats exactly what you need, Stock catback is 2.5 all the way back to the axle then 2.25, The axle back replaces the 2.225 with 2.5 and a magnaflow muffler.

And if you dont wanna wait for OTT, You could do the AEM which i cant see rubbing as much since it uses most of your stock intake, BUt if it was me i would just do the air box mod until OTT releases their intake which im think they said will be out in like a month

 

OTT is coming out with an intake? I knew they are introducing a new H/E but a intake as well?

 

i have already purchased and installed the 3" catless dp..... i will be finishing the exhaust with a full 3" system. and i think i will be going with the AEM. all i will do is inspect it from time to time after install and if i find any points of contact i will get some adhesive pads or something so it will take less wear and tear. if anyone can think of a muffler that is good let me know and maybe post a part number.

 

Yup.. 3'' stainless

Ah ok, Thought you meant you just wanted a muffler on the stock catback, For the muffler i would do,

(jegs part numbers)

642-14219 (3'' magnaflow)
545-87519 (3'' glasspack as resonator)

$150 for both.

 

awesome. thanks man!

 

awesome. thanks man!

 

No problem

 

Area will set you guys straight... he's a great tuner and tuned me for the same thing before I moved!

I'm sure your tunes will be based on my old maps, and you'll enjoy them!

 

I want a area47 t00n
