Need some HP upgrades, any info helps
To be quick and to the point, I've had my Summit White 1SS 2 years October 30, 2012. I haven't find any performance upgrades and have grown tired of my current performance. What's something's that I can do to improve this?

A cold air intake. Just bolt on. A ported throttle body. Just bolt on. Headers and a tune will make a huge difference but, will almost certainly void your warranty on the powertrain.
You are in Miami. Our club is also in Miami. Almost every car is modded up. You could see and hear them in person and talk to the guys about them. We are in the Florida subsection. TRI COUNTY. |

Look at the bolt on or suspension sections of the forum.
Intake and headers are normally the first steps for horsepower. Bushings are the first for suspension. |

Cai, ported tb, and LTs with tune is a good place to start but look and listen to other cars first so you don't change your exhaust 5 times like me.

depends
depends on your pocketbook and what you are looking to do with the car.
There are so many things from mild to holy &$^#* that are cool and expensive..lol with headers you really need a tune also so warranty a big deal for you?

The CNC TB's...totally everything that every Camaro owner needs to put on their list. Prolly will go down as the best bang for the buck mod right behind the LTs. LT's are the best thing to do, but you'll have to tune the rear o2 out for the CEL to go away. Another story altogether. Here to help if you ever need anything and best wishes with your new Camaro!

if you are looking for more power, do not waste your time with a intake. if you are going to tune and maybe add headers then its different.
If you are not going to tune, look into a exhaust. |

Yep these guys have answered it. The main staple is going to be intake, tune, exhaust. Start there and see if that quenches your thirst... im sure you will be wanting more soon enough. If you have any questions or need price quote on a package shoot me a pm.

Long tube headers w/tune (void warranty)
High Flow Cats no tune doesn't void warranty CAI Ported Heads/IM CNC TB (no hp gained really, but better throttle response) If you got the money... supercharger, turbo, blower, cam
