  • my plan for the summer, opinions?

    This summer when I get a job heh. I plan on getting a whisper lid, 2 1/2 in. i-pipe, cutout and maybe some 97 ss rims. What do you guys think. Think I should get some different mods? I'm lookin for some more speed and a dash of style, but im not gonna have a HUGE budget so keep that in mind if you have a different combo you think i should get.

    unless you can get a 2.5" i-pipe used, why not go with a 3", flowmaster, and/or catco 3" high flow cat.

      Wouldn't a 3" be a bit overkill? Not to mention I probably wont ever be getting a blower or nitrous. I plan to make it decently quick without all that. I figured a 2.5in mandrel bent would be a big enough improvement anyway. Not to mention I'll be getting a cutout as well.

        I think since it's summer you should get a trans cooler and let your transmission live a better life. I'm not sure what else you have done to your car, you don't have a sig. I went out and did all this performance stuff to my car without worrying about the condition it was in. And a line of stuff will break on you if you don't watch it. Just a little advice. Also if your going to change your CAT to a HighFlow one (catco is most affordable) reposition it right before it goes over the axle and put the cutout after it. If not it will rattle the hell out of your car with it right under the passenger side almost.

          Ok well a trans cooler is on my list but it was farther down there but maybe I'll move it up on the list. [img]smile.gif[/img] But as far as getting a high flow cat, where talking of relocating the cat to right before the axle and then having the cutout on the other side of the axle?
