Not to sure about the Nitrous lol but let me know what you think about everything if I should swap out something for something else or is a part is trash etc. I think I got a lot of key parts covered. hope fully ill be close to 375 WHP, but thats just hope lol. Also I currently have a aFe intake and the trifecta tune. Time to start saving

Awit92 · 02-27-2016, 03:04 PM

I personally wouldn't waste my time with the cams until someone figures out how to tune for them correctly.

Or the ZL1 fuel pump. Not needed

Shawno72 · 02-27-2016, 11:30 PM

I was thinking about gears as well

Black Knight · 02-27-2016, 11:33 PM

Yea ditch the cams and put that money to some suspension ,sways , bushings ,1LE struts and springs . Also are you building the car for the strip , auto x ,road corse or just all around daily driver ? Also I would go with some ss brembo take offs instead of those eBay rotors

nomats427 · 02-28-2016, 12:21 AM

Why would the cams need to be specially tuned? and bushing, struts and motor mounts will come as needed, my next part that I forgot to put is a catch can. Already had some leakage from the intake manifold had to put double O rings.

My car is my daily, I've had it for a year and has 19k miles warranty will be out the door soon so I need to start saving for emergency's luckily im really good with money and in no rush. :P

derek1387 · 02-28-2016, 08:31 AM

Look at DGMs thread with the cam. Literally not worth the cost and time to do it

Unless you go FI

But yes get some suspension. That will change the whole car

I wish I would have done my suspension before any of the performance additions. I feel like the suspension gave me more "power" than anything else I did. It lets me actually use what I have now.

Twin Town Terror · 02-28-2016, 10:43 AM

I wouldn't do the exhaust cutouts. It would sound horrible.

yzark99 · 02-28-2016, 12:49 PM

Start with the Solo Hi-Flo cats for exhaust. You might decide that you don't need the cat-back for another $900. Definitely put on a 1LE or ZL1 front sway bar & end links, and say hello to stable cornering at twice your current speeds.

nomats427 · 02-28-2016, 10:22 PM

I want the exhaust cut outs because im not getting cat back exhaust, i want the stock sound when im driving normal. I want to be able to get better air flow and more power with the press of a button because I feel my car really being backed up by the exhaust, air is coming in fast but being slowed on its way out.

Ill definitely work on my suspensions and I do see the sway bars being a big help but whats a good suspension kit. I know lowering springs is a bad idea.

FI is out of the question for at least two years lol

Your car is not backed up by the exhaust. At all.

This car has some of the most free flowing factory exhaust out there. Hence why exhaust "upgrades" on this car do nothing other than sound.

The only thing for the exhaust that actually "helps" us is the high flow cats/downpipes, or catless downpipes.

Right-horrid i can imagine.

JantzenOKC · 02-29-2016, 05:25 AM

Cutouts DO sound horrible on our cars, I tried it and it was embarrassing. Maybe it would sound better if the cutouts were put behind a resonated xpipe but in front of the mufflers. But just after the converter sounds like crap.
