Exhaust and suspension

Looking for a little help. I have a 2015 Camaro SS with L99 Engine package.

I would really like tune my car but I know that will avoid my warranty so I'm not going to do that yet.

I'm thinking about doing headers all the way back with high flow cats. Any suggestions?

Also looking to lower my suspension about an 1.25" in the front and about 2" in the rear. I'm thinking about coil overs but is there a cheaper version out there

I got all of that, save the suspension, sorted out with dynosteve from RDP Motorsports. I also drive an L99-powered Camaro, and he's done well by me.

Of course, I can also speak very highly of any Camaro5 vendor. Find one you like, even if they're far away, and start a conversation about your goals. We're lucky to have a lot of good, knowledgable vendors here.

Tyler @ JDP is an excellent resource. I have parts from them on the way as we speak.

If you go with LT headers you're going to need a tune to remove the CEL that the cats are gonna throw. If you can live with the CEL on then no tune required.

If you go with that suspension setup, you're going to end up higher in the front than the rear. I did BMR 1" front with 1.4" rear and ended up slightly higher up front. I'm looking to swap out my fronts to a 1.25" now.

Doing headers will require a tune unless you're willing to live with the engine light for a while.

As for suspension, I'd love to point you in the right direction. What will you be doing with the car? Are you going more for looks or function? There are some budget coilovers out there, but IMO if you're trying to save money, your dampers are not the place to do it. Think of them as the brain of your suspension.

Feel free to call, PM or email me anytime with questions and I'll be happy to help you further.
