Hi everyone!

3rd day with my new SS after being stuck with a mustang gt for about a year haha. Bought a 2009 SS with 95k up in Cleveland. The car has a few mods and I plan to do a lot more with it, so any recommendations are welcome!

Thanks! According to the seller, the car has a K@N intake, injen hotside, catlless downpipe, and an unknown tune. Although there could have been more done to the car, its currently making around 30 psi and about 350hp.

Good suggestions on basic things would be replace the intercooler as the endtanks like to blow open, and get a different tune. 30psi spikes and the stock turbo aren't going to like eachother for a long time, as anything after 23-24psi is really starting to leave the max efficiency zone of the turbo, making it into a hairdryer.
