Ok so i have an automatic 2.2L.....i drive a 2007 LT Coupe

now i have a whole bunch of apperance mods (halo projectors, billet grilles, blacked out tails, painted emblems, custom seats, exhaust tip, etc)

performance-wise i have the GMPP intake, and an autotrans interceptor (same thing as the shiftplus, just no wire splicing).....

im waiting for my TTR rear sway bar and DC strut bar to come in as well (fedex blows, UPS is better)

now i have a few questions with my next mods:

1. What type of exahust would produce the deepest sound ("muscle car like")

2. 2.4 mani swap......is it worth it?

3. Interested in a tune.......wondering who has the program for 2.2s

4. sportline springs........will i bottom out on rough/shitty roads? (LI blows cuz of so much traffic and the roads get wrecked)

5. What order to do it all in

1. I don't particularly think any exhaust is going to make our cars sound like muscle. And, what I like you may hate.

2. Yes.

3. Trifecta Tuning

4. The sportlines will not bottom out unless you are on a REALLY shitty road. It's low, but unless you have a body kit you should be fine. Just take it easy on the bumps.

5. I would do 2.4 mani, then headers, downpipe, and 2.5" exhaust of your choice, then a good tune to make it worth it.

i mean a throaty exhaust sound...i was just generalizing.......my 'balt is never gonna sound like a V8 and i know that

A lot of people like the zzp exhaust and the megan. Then again, there's a lot of people that hate the megan exhaust.

In the end it's all preference, you need to go on youtube and listen to clips of them all and decide.

i have the megan along with the zzp header/dp, its nLOUD but its got a nice low tone to it..if we ever meet up ill def show u.

i c........now will different intakes effect the sound as well?........and im leaning towards a GMPP exhaust or a borla exhaust......and really am curious about the difference between the touring and performance with the GMPP.....

ya man i checked ur car out its clean......my 'balt is white too

the first thing i put in my car was the K&N short ram intake, that itself was pretty loud when you stepped on it, it also made a noticeable improvement in response. i got it for like $220 shipped, defiantly worth every penny. Cant really notice the sound of it anymore over my exhaust though.

from what ive read/heard on youtube, the gm touring has a low tone to it but is very quiet compared to the performance

clear image, corsa or borla will get you that sound

I'm not too sure about your other questions but your car would def look slick with a drop!

bro ill take u for a spin in my car next week to see if u like how my car sounds..

trifecta tuning i heard is pretty good for tuning the 2.2

sportlines will look nice..

2.4 manifold will give u some nice gains up top..there was a dyno sheet somewhere on the forums
