Stage I. What am I missing?
Hello everyone,
Getting ready for the first round of mods. Was wondering if I can get your input on them? Looking to do these mods within next month or so. So far what is on the list is: Cold Air intake "Not ordered yet" TPIS 102mm TB "Done" HX "not ordered yet, don't know which brand to go with" ARH LT's "Debating whether or not to get them at this stage" ID850 injectors "done" Ported snout with 2.55" "Done" Full ported blower and blower runners "done.. I had an extra 1.9 blower" What else am I missing?? What do you guys think of this combo? I don't want to run a lower pulley just yet. I want to keep it nice and simple for this stage. Thank you, Kareem- Last edited by evilsrt8; 08-23-2013 at 05:02 PM. |

That sounds about right for stage one.. maybe a little more because of the fully ported blower lol. Only thing I can think of is a ported 87mm or 90mm throttle body.

I would definitely get longtubes for this stage. I believe Pfadt Tri-Y headers make the most power for the ZL1 on a dyno. I have 2" Stainless Works longtubes and love them.

I am thinking of cat delete for now. Any dyno charts or proved gains in terms of the different options we have? How is the fitment on your stainless steel?? Thanks |

youll have so much trouble with the cops if you do a cat delete cause the exhaust note will get stupendously loud at idle (at least for the cops it will be loud)

ZL1 with cat delete: "Its all stock, cant help it if its just a badass" Noise does not bother me but your right about the noise level being much louder. |

Noise does not bother me either but if im not mistaken the OP is here in the UAE and the authorities are very stupid about modified cars.

Yea man, when I was in the u.s I ran my V with straight headers and no exhaust for a while lol. I love the loud sound but with the amount of cars being towed here, it would be very risky to do the headers cat delete setup. What would you suggest in term of sound reduction? How can I go about this?? |

As far as sound clips, none yet, still waiting on a couple things to finish installing all my parts. But I have compared my car next to one with a similar setup to what I got and it is LOUD compared to stock. |
