    intakes?...

    i would imagine any intake kit should be a breeze to match with your plenum and tb. I can't begin to imagine why an intake setup would present a conflict with the parts your mentioned

    Which Exhaust would be louder?

    well i am trying to make my life easier as I get older and with smog checks out here in California the only legal midpipe is the factory one. So with that in mind thats why I was asking about the SLP catback with the stock midpipe. I am hoping to keep the ballsy sound in a smog check legal way...

    2 ?s: Will K&N improve MPG & should I remove air silencer?

    as with almost every cold air intake out there, they are all placebo's (most ) especially ones with metal housings like bbk... the one i do like i dont have *sigh, which is the densecharger system, i think that does some good, all the others are worthless

    Modification Survey Thread

    ummm anyhow... reguarding the 4.10's in your car will be pegged out down to the needle past the 150 mph marker at about 5300 rpms in 5th gear, take it from someone who knows.

    Which Exhaust would be louder?

    Oh one more question: Does the SLP catback require any welding at all for the install or is it all bolt on and clamps?

    Which Exhaust would be louder?

    yeah i don't have much doubt that it will be loud, especially considering the size of the mufflers (looks very much like a glasspack). I am just wondering if it will sound louder than my magnaflow (not magnapack) catback matched up with my bassani offroad pipe. Luckily the SLP setup is pretty...

    Which Exhaust would be louder?

    My current setup which you can see in my signature below or the factory cat pipe with the SLP Loudmouth Cat Back System? From the looks of the SLP system it looks nothing more than pipes and a small glasspack on each side. If anyone has any input on the brand, quality, and sound pertaining to...

    COLD AIR KIT=HOTAIR KIT

    yeah i must also agree seeing as how I have a nice BBK chromed hot air intake on my car. It probally hurts preformance more than it helps however I kick myself for not getting a densecharger system. Those are awesome and actually work... remember d e n s e c h a r g e r mmmm good

    i'm pretty clueless when it comes to this area, what type of heads should I shoot for and how much gain vs cost?

    how much horse power gains for these mods

    ahhh yet another method to "do-it-yourself" without really buying any parts... my favorite on the list is the hood scoop made from an old mail box, you gotta love that one.

    What would you do next?

    California smog law requires aftermarket parts to have an EOC number/certificate proving they are emmissions legal. As far as I know the only company offers this is BBK and only with their shorties, not their LT's

    What would you do next?

    Considering my mods below what would you recommend I do next to lower my 1/4 mile times. I want to keep my car naturally aspirated and keep in mind I live in california so any changes (IE cams) would need to be california smog compatible. I don't mind doing minor things like swapping pipes and...

    Bassani X = Ticking?

    I had a similar problem with my pipe. I thought for the longest time it was my clamps somewhere that was loose but it took me forever to figure out that in the middle of my x-pipe there is a little bassani name badge. I guess one or two of the sides of the badge just broke off so it was...

    how much horse power gains for these mods

    explain to me how you are somehow determining that better breathing will take your hp down. I don't disagree that the gain is practically zero but to say it is making a car slower than the factory setup is not true. I am also going under the assumption you meant hp and not rwhp. These mods...
