  • Mod. Recommendations?

    I just got the car a month and a half ago, and I think It's time to get some mods goin! :D Definitely first thing is XM, & a CD player!! (being installed in a week!!)Ive had a few people say cold air intake and some exhaust. Pros and Cons on that?

    Intake
    Pros,
    faster
    little louder sucking sound
    better MPG
    Cons,
    None.
    Exhaust,
    Faster
    Louder
    Cons,
    Some systems have a bad rasp at high RPM's

    I had a XM but sold it b/c there isnt a place (beside a new headunit) that doesnt like crap.

      Definately work on a catback exhaust first. I would highly recomend a 3" catback. Then do the intake (whisper lid, cold air intake)
      I made the mistake of just adding a new muffler on and not a full catback. I am hating it now.

                Damn the girl in Axeman1999ka sig is freakin hot [img]graemlins/omg.gif[/img]

                intake/exhaust are generally always the first and easiest mods done... after that, personally, I'd put 2 12s in it ;) I love music too much to have a stock system hehe

                      How do you know? I don't see any links to a picture site in her profile or sig :cool:

                      Get intake mods first, then work on exhaust. If you have enough you should do your exhaust all at once and save on the labor fees. Unless you're gonna install yourself!! That'd make you very popular on this board let me tell ya! [img]graemlins/rock.gif[/img]

                              3.42s are the highest gear any V6 should ever run.
                              3" exhaust is huge overkill.
                              206/206 is a huge cam.
                              17" wheels will slow you down to much.
                              V6s have no top end.
