75mm t/b and plenum

I think my next mod is gonna be the Accufab 75mm t/b and plenum. But is this a good mod with just a k&n air filter, or should I get a CAI from like JLT or something?

a cai will help, but the k&n will give you 80% of the benifit

tb/intake plenum is my next mod too. might as well go with the full intake, the JLT cai will match up very nicely with these.

If I was to get a CAI, it would be a JLT. They look nice and the dyno #'s were pretty decent.

I would rather see you spend your money on LT headers or gears, as they both change the car a lot more then the Accufab setup will (but it sure will look pretty, I wish I could see mine but the shaker hides it). When I installed my Accufab stuff, I didn't notice a real big difference, althought the throttle response seemed a little crisper. As far as the JLT, I would go that route, as like you said they look nice, and really are nice, and all have really similar gains. I used the JLT RAI before I got the Procharger. I thought highly of it.

RE: 75mm t/b and plenum

For one, I dont know if my car already has gears, I still have to check that out. And I wanna get the stuff under the hood done first, so I dont have to worry about it. I hope to get the Accufab 75mm t/b and plenum along with the JLT CAI and Steeda UDP's. Gears are a must I know, but I need to make sure I dont already have them. I'm gonna hold off on LT's aslong as I can, I love the sound of the o/r h-pipe and my 1 chambered Flows, but I do plan on getting SLP LM1's. If I get headers, they are gonna be LT's and they will probably even be after a KB. For LT's and the install is gonna run atleast $1000, if not more. For $1000 I could get the UDP's, t/b and plenum and CAI, and a Diablo tuner.

You cant use UDPs with a KB. For the KB, you'll need a tune. Then if you add LT's later, I would get another tune. So it makes sense to me to get the LTs first. SLP is quality stuff, you won't be dissappointed with the catback when you buy. I have LMIIs as the LMIs were a lil raspy for my liking. But both are nice. If I were in your shoes, I'd buy an SCT 2 tuner rather then a Diablo. It'll be better if/when you supercharge. I bought the Diablo, then when I had to get the tune for the s/c, I sold it and got an SCT. The SCT has more options.

RE: 75mm t/b and plenum

List of things in order:
75mm t/b and plenum
JLT CAI
Steeda UDP's
4.10gears
Diablosport tuner
SLP LM1

The KB probably wont be this coming year like the rest of the stuff, so would it be worth having the UDP's for about a year, or should I spend the $200 elsewhere?

Well, I tend to get anxious and want things yesterday rather then tomorrow. Power is one of those things. So, since you are gonna leave out LTs, haha, then yeah, go forward with your list, and make power now, and one of these days when you get F/I, just remove the UDPs and sell them.
