So I'm getting a ss/sc around the end of june and I should have atleast an extra $1000-$1500 saved up for mods right off the bat.

So what would you guys suggest?

 

drop .....

 

Stage 2.

 

Would I have to do anything with the drive train or tranny?

 

Have the dealer install stage 2 and add it to the price of the car and use the rest for intake and exhaust

 

Not getting it from a chevy dealer tho.

What intakes and exhaust would you recommend?

 

Well i personally like my set up. I have a video if you wanna hear it. Its Vibrant Header and dp with there high flow cat and that is connected to my magnaflow cat back exhaust

 

deff wanna hear it.

It's your clutch you have to worry about.

I had a faulty one (leaking slave cylinder) at 5,000 miles. Dealer replaced the entire clutch under warranty.

But if you go Stage 2 (installed by dealer a must and is highly recommended) and plan to race it a lot, get an upgraded clutch.

Spec 2 + seems most popular ...

 

I'm gonna be getting an SS/SC in the summer, and will prob go with a stage 2!! I would go with that.

 

put it in the car less payments ?

 

my suggestion is drive it for a good month and save sum more... pay a payment or so and then do a gm stg 2.. ull lik eur stg2 alot more if so.. plus ull know the car better and be able to drive it and feel it.

 

^^ good idea, if you have it stock for a while and then stage 2 you'll appreciate and feel the power difference

 

sell it and buy a mustang. Just kiddin. Sorry im in a wierd mood.

I suggest the srop first then do some 60's a 2.8" pulley and a good tune, cooling mods too

 

Def Stage 2 then exhaust and full cai. if any left over try a header and downpipe

 

stage II is a must

 

Can't believe no one said get a handfull of hookers yet

But in lieu of hookers, I'd say get Stage II

 

Another vote here for stage 2 mate. After that get cooling mods, then traction mods, then intake, then exhaust.

 

A grand will do a lot. Go stage 2 and intake. Anything left over get a Torque Dampener. Then save up for an Exhaust. Let the drop be one of the last things you do.

 

Put a down payment on another car

j/k of course

 

Those that said pay the payments I don't really need to worry about it, my parents are covering that for the first year and then I'm taking over (grad present kinda) besides the payments are super low I'm getting the car for about 11k

 

I'm graduating this year also and I wish my parents would buy me an SS/SC! ZOMG lucky! But yeah I agree with everyone - go stage 2 then work from there.

 

My vote is put gas in it... a grand may cover a month or so of showin it off...

 

stage 2 is a waste of money in my eyes.
