What should I do first?

I just bought a 06' SS/SC and it already has a AEM Intake & a Corsca stainless catback.What should I do next in the quest for more power?What would be the most bang for the buck?I don't want to put like 4 grand in it..just yet anyway

Methanol Injection and a tune. If your interested I am a traveling tuner and would have NO problem driving to texas to tune you, however it would be VERY pricey, but you would benefit A LOT from methanol injection and a tune. If you don't know what methanol injection is use the search button like you should have before you made this post and read up.

Wouldn't I benefit more from bigger injectors,smaller pulley and all that before I go with meth injection?

the Over The Top performance comes with..

a 2.8 pulley/hub assembly, #60 injectors, a bigger idler pulley(optional gm stg2 belt), and a tune.

I would be selling mine with the idler pulley and without the tune

The ottp stage 1 kit is a GREAT idea, minus the pcm if you can find a tuner in your area or someone who does traveling tunes cough cough. And yes you would benefit MORE from bigger injectors and a smaller pulley if you have meth, but I seriously think one of the biggest power gains even on a STOCK car is methanol injection because you can increase the timing so much and these cars just love timing.

I would gamble that a stock pulley with 60lbers and meth injection with 25 degrees of timing, tuned correctly would beat out a stage 2 car any day and it would.

But ya I highly recommend that you buy the ottp stage 1 kit and then meth injection and get tuned.

OTT stage 1 the best thing to look into.

Why on earth would you need 60# Injectors on a stock pulley car that's being methanol injected?

I didn't NEED 60# injectors on my 2.85" w/ the meth.. (I had 42's though, not stock)

i have an 06' supercharged as well and I'm looking at the OTTP stage 1 kit, for the people who have it what do you think about it in comparison with the GM stage 2? also (if anyone knows) what the hp gains from the OTTP kit from a stock car?

Yeah I was wondering the same thing as blackedout..Is the OTTP stage 1 kit just as good at the GM Stage 2 Kit?What kind of horsepower gains are we looking at on a stock car?

Expect about 5-10hp more than GM stage 2.

They give you larger injectors than GM, so you have more room to upgrade... with the GM kit you dont.

Just for the head room later on. In case the op/others misread my post or misunderstood it I think that the op should get the ottp stage 1 kit and then meth injection and a tune. However meth injection/water injection is a GREAT thing and I can see putting it on a 100% stock car if you have a tuner available, or just run distilled water.
