Hey Guys,...

What do you think about this Deal?
1 x Magnaflow Tru-X X-Pipe 2.50 Inch.
1 x Borla S-Type Axle Back With Round Tips.
Total Price is $662.16 with Free Shipping.

or

1 x Magnaflow Tru-X X-Pipe 2.50 Inch.
1 x Volant PowerCore Intake with Air Box.
Total Price is $348.06 with Free Shipping.

With this Option I would Add the X-Pipe and Cut off the Resonators and do a Muffler Delete with Straight Pipe using Stock Tips.

Thoughts - Suggestions?

Hey Black LS3, I'm not sure if I'm going or not. Ill probably go over there and at least meet Justin in person. No sense in getting my car on the dyno again. They are not doing any tuning on Saturday, but he never was able to tune my trans (auto), so I need to get that done. I guess a renowned tuner ( Jeremy Fornato) goes to the place on Hanson in Ft Myers, and I may get on his list when he's here. Sorry I can't help you on the mods. Why don't you start a new thread in the LS3 section ?

Yeah I actually been to that place off Hanson, That guy deals with most Corvettes doesnt he? or at least that what he had there when i was there, He had 3 out in the lot and Vette Parts all over his Shop.

Does he do Tunes for our Camaro's there to now?

Well guys,... I'd have to say that the Poll was pretty successful what do you guys think?

I ended up buying a Magnaflow Tru-X 2.50 X-Pipe to do the Muffler Delete and I went ahead and bought a AirAid CAI.

I believe that the AirAid will work out well for when and if i can ever get the hood that I want to get which is a Functional Ram Air Hood so having an Open top CAI in that location is going to work out for when that ever happens.

I guess the next step would be to save up for some Long Tube Headers and a Tune and I should be good to go for a while.

Thanks for all of your help and suggestions and for helping me out with the poll.

Now i just need to get my car, I've never been so excited about buying a car as i am about buying this car.

Hey Ivan,... You like that eh,... hehe
Doesnt it always start out that way though, I'm going to Hate or Love (Depends on what kind of stand point your looking at it from) to see what my car is going to look like 6 months after I've owned it already.

BTW,.. Bad Karma use to be my user name for many many years back before the Internet when there were only BBS Boards to logon to and Visit. +1 to ya...

You should go to a couple of meets first, check out cars that have mods. I've changed my mind a bunch of times but finally getting things figured out.
