For all of you with headers... i found a solution to the LOUD noises coming from the new pipes. My setup is now an SSAutochrome 4-2-1 Header, Magnaflow High Flow Cat, 2 foot Resonator, and Magnaflow performance muffler. This setup is now quieter than it was with just stock manifold and no resonator with the magnaflow muffler. THE SOLUTION... big resonator and cat.

Now for questions....

WHAT SHOULD I DO NEXT???

clear corners
JSpeed power Underdrive pulleys
save for rims
centerbar and rear strut bar
wait on the M3 mirrors

PICK ONE PLEASE.. need help... cant really make up my mind (plus only got about 200 bux to spend)

BUMP: addition... should i go for like just the underdrive crank pulley and clear corners.... or do like both sets of lightweight JSpeed pulleys... or do somethin else. i want performance, but i am also wanting to do some minor exterior modifications.

 

i would get the clears and strut bars

 

JSpeed power Underdrive pulleys
centerbar and rear strut bar

 

performance and looks? go with rims... a wider and stickier tire will make it so you do not need that much more extra power coming out of the corners.. only because you were able to carry more speed into the corner.. and nothing makes a car look instantly different than a nice set of rims and a low profile tire

 

I agree with blacktib on the power pulleys and the strut bars. However, why would you get the rear and center bars without first getting the front one? I think you would see the most stability on just getting the front and rear ones.

 

^^ ummm he already has one......check his sig.

Cdog....I'd go w/ the corners and the pulleys.....that would be right around 220.....I'm sure you can come up w/ and extra $20.

and then get in on the GB for the bars when it happens.

Then mirrors and rims.

 

I would go with the corners and the pulleys.

 

now... on the pulleys... that is for one set (i.e. the power pulley set, or just the underdrive crank pulley) now which set is gonna give me the most performance. kspec says that the crank pulley is said to give 8-16 horsepower, but on the power pulley set it doesnt say anything about horsepower. oh and redz said something about a group buy on the pulley sets here sometime at kspec.... so i was even thinking of waiting on that

 

Considering you won't get that much from the pulleys man, do some visual stuff.

Just wait and check out the Konigs my buddy is selling in For Sale today.

WOW!

If you don't have strut bars yet mang, ALL 3, get those. Then some tails.

 

so you wont get much from the pulleys huh... what about their claim of 8-16 horsepower.

yea... rims would be cool but my father is AGAINST any major modifications (he doesnt kno about the header yet) but he allows some minor modifications.

yea... strut bars would be cool
