Re: low end upgrades

I have just about decided to get a CAI from RD Fabs. Do you guys know what kind of hp gain this would bring? I do have that magnaflow too, remember...just the muffler though. Maybe after that, get those engine mounts.

5-7 for the intake, as for just the muffler your not going to get a whole hell of alot out of that man. Your entire exhaust is extremly restrictive...Do something like this and you may be able to snag 15-18 for everything. All i know is the car screams unlike it use to before.

RDFABS CAI... Pacesetter armor coated 4-1 header



Here is your stock exhaust..



magnaflow high flow cat..



RDFABS custom dual equal length magnaflow 2.5" header back exhaust....



Oh wait thats right, i work with them .......

Re: low end upgrades

If you're going for strictly performance tho, dual exhaust is only worth it if you're running some sort of boost, other then that you should go single outlet. The less curves and turns the better.
