what is the next best mod (hp wise) that will compliment LTH decatted with ecu tune?

afterward, i don't plan on doing any more performance mods and will stick to exterior and interior mods.

please give me your opinions.

pulley or intake

evosport makes the only pulley - see superlubricitys post
intake - renntech or carbonio, but both are pricey and show little to zero gains on a dyno, maybe moreso on the strip

bluejae

any specific ones you suggest? company/brand wise...

bluejae

so pretty much 1k for a pulley is the next best thing? dang

Boost Gomez

Coilovers or LSD (if you don't have PP).

Intake makes no power no where.
I tried the carbonio airboxes with k&n's. Vs stock with foam filters Back to back at the track with cool down time and the times were the same 11.5's both set up and no beter. I did run my Personal best record with the stock airbox and foam filters.

After tune and headers I would get a LSD. I got mine before I got my headers and love it. Quaife.The power goes down all the time no one wheel burnouts.

i've got the LSD already... i guess just replacing the stock filters with something like k&n's would be fine then.

I have tired. K&n. Vrp green filter and bmc. Now I have the foam filter they seem to work a lil beter then all.

how about the pulley and ROW airboxes?

Tune > LSD > Exhaust

From what I Ive been told.

If your factory brakes are nearing the end life, I would look at the Evo Sport rotors which can be 40 pounds less unsprung weight.

here's what i will have

MHP LTH decatted, K&N Filters w/o charcoal filters, LSD, ecu tune.

some possible suggestions have been suspension and brakes... i'll likely not do anything to the suspension, but the brakes are definitely an option later on but not right now, brakes are fine... i'm looking for a little more added HP

I've heard so many people say the same thing about the Carbonio air boxes: that they didn't add any noticeable power both on dyno and at the track.

However, I do think the RennTech ones add a nice hp gain. I was told by a couple of respected members that they've tested them on the dyno and did show 8 whp. I will be doing my own testing on those soon enough and will post the results for you guys.

One more thing to note about the Carbonio air boxes is that they yellow very incredibly fast. They are no where near the quality of the RennTech air boxes.

let's also say i want to spend below $1700 for whatever mod. the renntech air boxes look awesome, but a lot more than what i want to spend.

I really doubt that pulley gives anywhere near 15 HP. I would say at most your paying 1k for 10 hp

Please PM me where I can buy the Renntech box for $1700, thx

bluejae

when i said $1700, i said i want to spend below that amount. i think the renntech airboxes are like $2500+

Anyone considering larger throttle bodies? Any gain on them?

chief63

You are missing out if you don't have the KW V3s coil overs, it literally changes the car's handling, my best mod yet by far. Also seriously consider lightweight rotors for some good all around performance gains (acceleration and braking).

sflgator

Did you have to change any camber or anything else to the oem suspension when you added the KW V3's?

chief63

Yes I had to reduce the camber with camber bolts to bring it to a very decent level. That's it.
