im lookin into CAI and headers for now...any brand recommendations....or any other suggestions to do instead for some quick, moderately cheap power?

 

I have a Flowmaster 80 Series Dual Outlet Muffler + Dual Tail-pipes I'll sell you

other than that...headers, cat, CAI (SLP or ebay), Aluminum Driveshaft...NITROUS

 

what's so good about aluminum drive shafts? You keep mentioning them in your posts

 

Our cars have 2 piece steel driveshafts (2000+ have 1 piece steel). Basically, a 1 piece aluminum driveshaft is far lighter than our stock ones. If the driveshaft is lighter, more horsepower gets to the wheels (less parasitic horsepower lost in the drivetrain: Heavy Driveshaft takes more power to rotate, light driveshaft takes less power to rotate)

So this doesn't increase 'Horsepower', but it increases Rear Wheel Horsepower (the kind that matters). There easy to install and you can get one for about $125.

 

i have flowmasters on there....wut gain will i get from the 80 series muffler? anddd what are your thoughts on performance chips?

 

What flowmaster do you have on there now?

I plan on getting a mail-in tune rather than a jet chip...

 

im actually not sure...they came with the car....and what is a "mail-in tune"?

 

flowmaster 80 is just a dual outlet muffler

mail in tune is where you send your pcm into the place (pcmforless.com, texas-speed.com, etc) and they tune it...similar to a jet chip etc but a little more fine-tuned (it takes into factor your mods/power adders)...I'll prob do that once I do a cam swap or nitrous. I don't have any experience w/ jet chips so I don't know how well they work or what not

 

ahhh interesting....ive never heard of that....im kinda new to the performance parts and stuff before i was all into systems and that kinda route so im tryin to learn as much as possible about this stuff

 

where do i buy an aluminum drive shaft and how hard is it to install ?
