Pretty good mods, but do you really feel a difference with the performance upgrades? Its a kind of peppy motor, but do you think that its wise to upgrade it? Just wondering what you thought of upgrading a sedan type car. Well props to you either way, maybe you can get that go going fast man, have a sleeper malibu lol. Oh btw, my mom has a 99 malibu so I kinf of know something about them. Not much though, lol.

yah I will get some pictures up soon! yes I do notice a difference. Mainly in the acceleration and I reach 80 mph now in 3rd gear rather then 72 mph. So i did get a performance boost. Also my mileage went up by 10 miles.

How is the 62mm throttle body working for ya? I was planning on getting it but I didn't know how well it works. Did you get it off of RSM racing?
