Nitrous & Tune

/Thread

 

dont want to go nitrous sorry

 

^^ You scared of the juice? lol j/p man.

The I say throttle body, plenum, longtubes and midpipe.

 

lol just not a big fan of it, does a throttle body really help these cars i've only worked on a 94 sixxer and i know it does nothing for them

longtubes is something i was definitely interested in, what brand is best?

does all of the even add up to 1k?

 

IMO ARH and Kooks, Both are stainless steel so they will never rust. Both ARH and Kooks are over 1k thou. I paid $1,500 for my ARH longtubes, ARH Catted X, egr delete and FR stg8 locking header bolts.

You can get Mac ceramic coated for like $480, mac o/r H for like $200 and IDK how much a tb and plenum are so your right around 1k.

 

...why don't you just save more $$$ and get a SC??

 

cause i dont wanna wait til i save another 3500 or so .. trust me i'd love to do the s/c this summer but i wont have enough money to and i feel the need to do something to it while its out for the summer ... getting the windows and taillights tinted on tuesday and some new headlights soon but i have a grand to put in performance wise and unless someone has a better idea it looks like im going lt's and mid pipe

another ? about lt's do they drastically change the sound of your car? and about how many horses am i looking at

 

and is the throttle body and plenum worth it all i have heard is til your making 450+ a tb does jack ****

 

$1k not a lot to work with...perhaps a used set of long tubes & H or X pipe...(I would still save ....well worth it in the Long run...)
