I noted something in your sig:

ORIGINAL: TheDarkPath
Waiting install: BMR LCAs
Waiting for delivery: LCA relocation brackets
I hope you plan to wait till you get the LCAs before you install the brackets....
Haha. I need to change that. The brackets came in yesterday. The LCAs were in last week. They'll be going on Saturday along with the C&L CAI and 93 octane tune.

First thing I changed was the exhaust and put a Cervinis kit on it! Painted stripes and CAI w/ dyno tune.

I have to admit, wheels and tires have been my favorite mod so far. The car looks 1000x better with the deep dish, chrome bullitts (especially the 285 tire in the back). Some day i'll lower it but for now, i want to go fast.

like its been said b4, stop thinkin about warranty if u wanna mod!


My first mod was KnN CAI, BBK throttle body n Borla catbacks

from my experience, i'd say get a C&L CAI or a JLT CAI ... dont bother about the throttle body, n get a tune ....... u should be happy

I did the stripe delete on mine so I could put on what I liked. To me exterior was first, lettering and fader stripes on sides and back, plus pinstriped it. Next is underhood detailing and wheels/tires when I get some big bucks. As long as you have fun that's all that matters.

I knew I would be doing stingers and CAI...

I chose the Stingers first...I honestly did not like driving the car the way it sounded...waaaaay too soft! Now, about 3 months later, I am doing a C&L and Brenspeed tune.

Trust me...once you hear the sound, you will remember why you bought the car!!!

Depends on what your needs are. If you want horsepower, do the CAI and tune bit. If you want looks, do your ducktail. For me, it was Sensory Experience. The way the car feels and sounds. A short throw shifter makes the car feel better. Throaty mufflers make it sound better. Ergo, my mods priority. I really don't give a damn (right now, anyway) about horsepower mods or go-fast racing prowess. The next "feel good sensory mod"for me will be crisp handling.

4.10's should be right after CAI/Tune.
