Not going to do a lot of good for 2.8. But if you want to spend the money go ahead, it will look impressive under the hood.

Thanks, I'm still thinking of doing that. I have another question now, for better suspension what do you think would be the best first thing to go with? I was thinking a front and rear anti sway bar. Or should I go with subframe connectors?

The first upgrade to any Model 3rd gen car should be WELDED in SFC's. That will be the best mod you can do. Forget sway bars unless you know what they can do for you Good & Bad to the handling. Stock is good enough. Upgrade the Struts & Shocks, Bilstien's for example and that will improve everything.

Boy black, I don’t think you realize that most people coming here are looking for DIY or the less expensive mods.

Bolt in sub-frame connectors are almost as good, and you save the money of having them installed.

Your stock sway bars are fine, but even changing the end links, or all the rubber bushings with urethane ones will make your car feel more responsive. Just don’t only change the front or rear, you may cause a over/under steer that you won’t like, either change all the sway bar bushings, or do it in sets like the end links on the front and rear, and then the inner donut mounts next month.

KYB GR-2 gas struts and shocks are great improvements for the 3 rd gen.

Well I like your guys' ideas but I race my camaro in auto X I know its pretty funny but its really fun i actually highly suggest finding an event near you. I think I will just upgrade my suspension which ever comes first with the parts.
