the best investment i made was Solo cats out of all my mods it made the most difference with the added bonus of awesome sound. plus no tuning.

You are pretty close to a decent set of headers. You really can't beat a set of headers for performance. Solo high flow cats are a nice option too. If you are into hitting the corners we have some nice suspension kits in that price range you'll love! Give us a call and we can go over some go fast options for you.

attack that suspension man. i made the mistake with my 99 z-28 and dis bolt-ons first and thought i had a beast back then. made one call to BMR got full light weight suspension and immediatly knew i was an idot starting with bolt-ons first. needless to say i started off right with my 2010 SS. get some SWAYS and start taking hard turns
