Next month is a 3 paycheck month for me so I will be having a little extra cash around....so do I go with a new cat-back and possibly UDP or CAI with tuner kit. I would plan on blowing my entire 3rd paycheck on all of it but licensing is due and have a few other things to payoff as well. I am leaning to cat-back and possibly UDP but the tuner is tempting as I will def need for other apps in future

 

CatBack for sure! Then just get a k&n filter instead of a cai

never really thought of just getting a better filter rather than a whole kit, thanks! It's been an awful long time since I worked on cars on my own. Almost forgot how much fun or PITA it can be.

 

The stock intake is a CAI, and a pretty decent one at that--unless you jst want some underhood bling there's no reason to replace it...

The catback will open things up a bit though.

Also, a tuner and a premium fuel oriented tune will wake up even a dead stock GT. The OEM tune has very conservative timing settings, and tends to be overly rich at WOT.

 

SSS catback FTW!

 

this is one I am considering, I like the sound alot also I was aware the stock was a CAI as well just wasn't aware how good it is/was. Good to know though about the aftermarket CAI

 

Depending on what I go with I may be able to swing cat-back and tuner, just have to wait an see. Mainly depends on how much I end up spending on entertainment......I mean beer in the next month

 

MAC o/r H with SSS catback. /thread

 

Id get the catback and tuner if u can...if just one its all up to you...catback will make some noise for ya and the tune will give a slight sotp feel...
