Im not talking about shorties...shorties are a WASTE of money unless you have a high reving motor and power adder. You can raise the motor or drop the xmember. droping the xmember is the easiest way.

I would go for gears if I were you. After that go with LT headers and then TB/Plenum and you are pretty much done with all of the bolt-ons. A MGW Short throw shifter is also a solid investment and makes the car more fun to drive.

They are a waste of money dude.. they dont help sound and you get no hp benefits until high up in the rpms.which doesnt help you. 99% of the cars on here need and want torque down low which lts give you. you can always sell te midpipe.. its no big deal. most ppl on here go through tons of dif exhaust setups.. i myself have been through about 10 haha
