i bought my 09 GT in june and after taking care of something have decided to get the ball rolling. i used to have a civic and before that an accord so im kinda new to the v8, so tell me what you guys think:

corsa axle back
c&l street cai
sct x3 tuner

i want to supercharge it eventually but need to get my fix for now.. what suggestions do you have? i was thinking whipple?

 

Thats a tough one. When are ypu planning on the Whipple? If its going to be soon I'ld forget the CAI and tuner being the FRPP Whipple comes with open element filter and a tuner. If it's not going to be till next year or something like that then the mods you listed are a good start, you can always sell them later on.

 

congrats abnstang and good choices
on your first mods

 

Like Vista said if you are planning on the Whipple. I would just wait for the SC and then get all the power you would ever need. I went the same road that you want to go but I only had my CAI and tune in for about 3 months before the Whipple went in, I do suggest that you get the SCT so you can have tunes for different octanes..

 

I'm keeping mine NA, so I went the intake/tune route. I will say it really does wake up the car.

 

Thanks guys... i dont know when ill get the SC prolly not til like next spring so i guess ill go ahead... maybe ill change my mind and keep it N/A...maybe now the real question is do i get 3.73's or 4.10's Ive got a friend who said that he went with the 3.73's because he said it would keep him from shifting as much in town. has anyone had both and which do you prefer?

 

got the corsa's in today...and a speeding ticket...
now just waiting on that intake and a tuner

 

stick or auto? if auto go 3.73 if stick go 4.10

 

Get the intake and tuner regardless of going F/I or not, it took 3/10 off my 1/4 mile time, way more top end power worth the $. Congrats on the Corsa exhaust, that right pedal gets addicting...

 

I think you will be better off with the 3.73 with the super charger. You will push through the gears too quick with the 4.10s. Let the supercharger wind up.
