looking for recommendations for first mod!! for my 2014 SS any suggestions other than an air intake wich is self explanatory?

PalmerGA · 03-23-2014, 03:34 PM

Exhaust. If you have them... sh*t-can the stock mufflers.

BasedSS · 03-23-2014, 03:36 PM

I went with headers on my 14 SS. Exhaust does nothing but gives more sound, I will prob go back to my factory cat-back and run cut-outs for when I want more noise.

Headers with an intake was my first mods.

Get yourself a catch can and protect your engine. Then start on the performance upgrades.

Did I say otherwise? The stock trash cans sound like crap. A Camaro SS should sound like a traditional muscle car. A good aftermarket exhaust system give better sound.

I bought it with the dual mod and short throw shifter. but I was still thinking exhaust as well for first upgrade. and a catch can
