Manitoba SS's 2012 thread
So i've been doing some thinking. I think depending on how the next 3 years go, i might just hold onto my car.
Because in 3 years i am sure itll be worth around 10 grand if not more. Which is a nice downpayment on a house.
Might as well just do that. Get a set of winter tires for it and just drive it all year round.

If its so
That means you would go from 2.5 inch(header) to 3 inch(downpipe) to 2.5-2.75 inch(catback).
Nope you can get a 3" or 2.5" in the 2 bolt flange. 3" downpipe is the way to go.

Is that so? i stopped following LSJ talk awhile back, but (cheesy qoute) back in my day people use to use the 2.5 inch because the 3 was to big for the common M62 application. moving to a 3 inch prevented back flow (which is needed for the supercharger application)
[QUOTE=Bluelightning;6380064]For curiosity sake I checked shipping with ZZP and the want $95 to ship it USPS. Hopefully he can do it for cheaper than that.

He said USPS was $32, but he doesnt have a box so he wants to get the post office to box so he wants me to cover that we are discussing it lol
i am gonna ship it to menkes and have my buddy pick it up.

I looked at the LSJ thread and read the one titled LSJ modification guide, looks like 3 inch DP is the way to go, neat.
Good pick up mike. does it have the bung for the wideband??

Well my OTTP long tube and ZZP's long tube run 1.75" primary's. That's the same size Kevin run's on his Camaro...
Welcome by the way. Give us some detail on your ride year ,options, etc...
Thats cool. Question are you getting it shipped UPS? To your door here? If so prepare to be raped from UPS in brokerage fees.
Your message to me last night: "alright man my plan is set i think im going stage 2 with trans mounts the downpipe and a makeshift cone filter on my intake tube then reflash my pcm when i buy my exhaust "
So I have a few questions to help me understand your plan better so i can help you out:
What size pulley and injectors are you going with?
Whats your plan to take the stock pulley of, and install the new one?
What do you mean "buy my exhaust?" If you mean your downpipe, or other components?
i ask because once you install that stg 2 kit you will have to reflash "Tune" your PCM at that point or very soon becuase your car will run like ****, so if you plan to reflash later then you will have issues.
Also how do you plan to reflash?
What option did you choose?
Did you get a new PCM?
Did you get a tune emailed to you?
if so do you have HPT Tuners to drop it on your PCM?
These are all important questions to answer before you take of a single nut/bolt
I hope it all works out for ya?
we get together for wings on occasion, as a mateter of fact a few guys are going tomorrow night you should swing by.

That's not really that good of a deal for HPT, the fact that it has no credits is a big no-no
pro is 649 on their website (i've seen a few sites dip a bit lower then that)
you get 6 credits right?
credits are 2 for 100 bucks
300 bucks
300+300= 600 dollars.
Might as well buy new.
