Need Help! 2010 Camaro SS RS
Hi guys, this is my first post here. I have a 2010 SS RS Red Jewel Tincoat. I got it used and its been great.
So far I have upgraded to HIDS, LED DTR, tinted windows, and changed my interior lighting to aqua blue. I was wondering where to start with performance upgrades. I don't have a lot of spare cash, but I want to do something. Horsepower is the main goal, keeping total cost in mind. Any ideas? |

Are you planning on staying n/a? I prefer remaining n/a personally. Here are some of my notes on popular power adders for n/a application and RWHP gained min/max. I'm sure some have seen less or greater gains, but I think the majority fall within these parameters. I haven't considered meth kits or FI, but that is where the real power is ultimately.
CAI/ROTOFAB/ADM AIR INTAKE = 8-15RWHP LT HEADERS = 15-35RWHP REMOVE CATS, RESONATOR & MUFFLERS = 5-15RWHP CAM = 40-80RWHP PORTED HEADS = 10-30RWHP UDP = 4-8RWHP DYNO TUNE = 8-20RWHP GEARS = NOT A POWER ADDER, BUT ADDS TORQUE THROUGH TORQUE MULTIPLICATION

My best guess would be anywhere from 35-60RWHP, 35 being very conservative.

Being it's 2010 your warranty is most likley gone. So have at it the Pocket books the limit headers, tune, exhaust, gears, supercharger, nitro.

Do you just have HIDs or did you convert to RS headlights or something along those lines?

Naturally aspirated ... as in no forced induction like turbo/supercharger

Eventually maybe, but right now I don't have the funds for that.
