Smile new here

hey guys im probably picking up my 2013 2ss auto (its going to be my daily driver and i live on long island so the 6 speed would be a pain in the ass in traffic everyday lol) on thursday, im pumped. i always wanted one, my uncle had one in 2010 (2ss aqua blue metallic) and he just traded up for the ZL1 about 10 months ago (the car is a nasty beast) ive always owned chevys my first ride was a slammed 85' c10 and i just sold my 2006 Trailblazer ss about 7-8 months ago, so im excited to be gettng back into the chevy prefromance world. what would be the first upgrade u guys think i should do? im going to allow the motor to break in for the first 4-5 thousand miles but i just want to start getting idea. thanks!

Welcome aboard... Remember to warn your riders to keep their hands and heads inside of the car at all times, as this is a CAMARO.... and its going to FLY....... and you are not liable for any corrective facial procedures to remove the perma-grin from their faces when they land.....

Welcome..! Me personally, I'd upgrade the exhaust. Fairly inexpensive mod. But that's just me. Enjoy that permagrin..!

1. Run out all of the 87 octane the dealer filled it up with, then fill it with 93 and do a fuse pull.
2. Install a Range AFM Disable device
2. Install RX Catch Can
3. Install CAI intake w/ air scoop
4. Ride like the wind and be thinking about aftermarket exhaust.
