Headers, tune..... pretty much it I would think for real power mods. Get Long tubes ,would give a very nice increase in power.

I thought about it, but I'm really not interested in picking up more power. So I decided to go with the GT exhaust and I bought the Renntech v3 lowering module w/ tablet. That's about $4k worth of stuff so I'm good for the time being.. Wheels are next.

Question, with the v3 have any of you had issues aligning the car or with excessive tire wear?i was told by Mark at Renntech that the rear wouldn't be an issue, it's the front, I would need a camber bolt kit? Can anyone verify this? This won't be my first lowered car, so I know that lowering a car doesn't mean I can't align it and avoid tire wear, my tires are brand new.

With good longtubes and tune, you can see 70rwhp. We did that on two customer cars. Our tune also makes 30rwhp+ brotha.
