ok, i havnt been on this site for a long time... havnt had a computer since im not going to school anmore... but i am getting to the point where i want to start doing some work to my car, but i dont know where to start since i have the V6 and iknow they dont make much for it. i still dont have tons of money, but im looking for a few good ideas on were to go. im looking to do more performance work other than looks which will come later on down the line. i know im gonna need a new exhaust soon since my muffler is rusting a lot and i was thinking of going with the CTI, so if anyone has any good opinions that would be great. thanks for your help.
With a catback, you would be able to install a Nordic stage 2 upgrade... it gives you an extra 40hp and 60lbft of torque. That's mighty impressive, even for the V6
After this your brakes and suspension will be the weakest link. Upgrading those will allow you to keep more speed during cornering, and spend less time stopping.
The stage 2 tune would work with the CTI catback as well. The packaged Simons exhaust is also very good, but it is very quiet. Just a nice subtle deep tone.
if i had the money to buy the stage 2 i would but thats a little to pricy for me right now, i need money for gas still... so right now i think im gonna stick to doing the CTI catback and when i get around to it doing the open intake, i just need to stop being lazy and do it since i want to do it the way of taking off the front bumper not through the lights
If you are tight on money, have a local exhaust shop remove your middle muffler, and replace it with straight pipe. Then have them weld in a new Magnaflow muffler or something, and a tip of your choice. That should be even cheaper than the CTI option.
o im willing to pay the $475 or what not for that, thats one paycheck for me but i just dont want to spend $1400 right now on something... i do like your idea of that also, but i want bigger pipes so thats why i want the CTI exhaust, im just picky when it comes to cars, rather have nice then crappy
i think im gonna go with the cti, but i was probably going to get the 3"
