2011 2SS Biggest Bang for the $$$$ ?
Newbe to Camaro5. But not Camaro's. I have owned many 1969 , 1997 & now a 2011. My question is "What do you think the biggest bang for the buck mod is for a 2011 2SS manual trans " ? Thanks ahead of time for responses.

I agree on the skip shift eliminator. What changes can I expect from long tube headers?. I already have a CAI Cold Air Induction Kit on the Way.

I know it's hard to justify spending $7,000+ on your car at one time, but really, it's hard to beat a supercharger. And it really doesn't matter if you get a centrifugal or twin screw or turbos or whatever. They will all give you a noticeable seat of the pants gain in horsepower. 100+ rwhp at least. And in most cases, it's more than that, even approaching 200 rwhp gain.
That much hp gain really makes these cars feel light and a lot more fun to drive. Yea you could go the NA route and make that much in hp gains. But what other single mod out there will give you 100+ rwhp gain? Meth? Yea I know, but superchargers/turbos are probably a lot safer than meth injection. |

Depends on your budget and local rules.
Long tubes + catless or hi Flo cat exhaust + tune will make a sizeable difference in the performance and sexyness of your car. |

NOS is what I am thinking. I ran it in my 69 and that is a big HP increase for the $$$. ???

Long tube headers. No other bolt on equals 10% more power.
