  3. GM Performance Exhaust

    in Bolt On Performance

    Posted

    I have the GM Performance Parts Cat Back on my SS. It sounds much nicer than stock, with mild drone at about 2000RPM. It is loud enough that the guy in the lane next to you will have look when you snap the throttle. Not to mention that I picked up around 2 MPG after installing it. For the price, no other cat-back can beat it. Think about it, a T304 mandrel bent stainless kit for under $500. Don't forget the tip has to be ordered seperately. Good luck on your decision. :chevy:

  5. Anyone run a 06' GT mustang in a SSS?

    My uncle just bougth a left over '06 GT. When he breaks it in, I plan on running him heads up. I will post the outcome sometime in the future. I honestly don't think that a 5000 pound truck that has basic mods like mine could beat a 3000 pound car with 300hp, we will see. Maybe in a few years when I add a Vortech supercharger I will smoke him for sure. :chevy:

    K&N FIPK... No problems and noticable improvement to performance. :D

    I agree, K&N 57-series FIPK. :chevy: Better peformance, sound, and fuel ecomomy. No problems either. The MAF sensor problems occur if you over oil the K&N after cleaning it. I had that problem on my Grand Prix GTP.

     

    whats the different between the 57 series and the 77 series?

     

    I found the 77 series on ebay for 165

     

    The 57-series is not as much for looks as the 77-series is. The 57 series is black plastic, while the 77 series is polished. As far as I know they are identical in how they work. Jegs sells the 57-Series for around $250. I picked the 57-series because it matched the rest of the plastic crap under the hood and blended in better. Either way you won't be sorry you bought it. Good Luck with your choice. :cheers:

    GM Performance Parts Cat-Back.  Costs much less than the Magnaflow and Corsa, and its T304 stainless.  Sounds great, really turns heads, and has mild drone.  If you don't have a lot of money to spend(like me), this is a great alternative.  Costs under $650 with the tip.  Good luck with your choice.  :chevy:

     

    whats the part # for that catback?

     

    :chevy: The kit is # 17800765 which goes for around $557 at gmaccessorieszone.com but goes for $493 at crateenginedepot.com.

    The stainless tip is #17802143 which goes for around $100 on the GM site, but Crate Engine Depot (A large Chevy Dealership in Michigan) sells it for about $88. There are a variety of tips to choose from.

    I got my kit through my buddy who works at a local Chevy dealership here in NY ( and he got it for cost :D ). The kit cost me $473 and the Tip was $84.

    Good Luck with your choice, post your results. :cheers:

  25. SSS vs. Z28's/TA's

    I was curious how my truck would fair against a stock Z28 or TA plain or SS/ram air models.Stck vs. stock does my stock SilveradoSs have a chance? :dunno:

    No way, not stock/stock. Those f-body cars are pretty quick. Late model LS-1 powered f-bodies have like 325HP(I am not 100%sure of that number exactly) and weigh close to 1/3 less than the SS. :chevy:
