What Gains Can I Expect!?!??!?!?!

[L3THAL_Z28]

got an exhaust question...i got a magnaflow catback, slp lid, and a TB bypass on my 2000 Z28...i want to buy an ORY and Pacesetter LTs and was wondering how much horsepower and torque I would approximately gain w/ and without a tune.

[L3THAL_Z28]

anyone w/ any info on this??

[jerry trans am]

Without a tune id guess maybe 25 rwhp. If you get a tune probably up around 40 rwhp.

[L3THAL_Z28]

thatz not 2 bad...hopefully its that high..thanks man

[biga0206]

I did lid LTs ORY and a cutout and i picked up 40+hp and 30+tq

[nhraformula]

headers, orp and tune was 30 rwhp for me.

w/ headers do i need to get 02 extensions or whatz the deal w/ those?? someone else on this site told me that I would need to tune em out...he said his friend bought hp tuners and he would be able to delete them for me w/ it...told me it would cost me $100...what do u guys think??

With long tube headers no cats, you only use the front two 02 sensors but you will need 02' extensions for them. You dont' have to do anything with the rear 02's just tuck them away under the car. Only problem is the SES light will come on but there is no problem. Instead of paying ur freind to tune them out with hp tuners, save up some more money and get a custom tune. That will give you the most Horse power for you bolt on's and they can just tune out ur rear 02s for u.

+1 on custom tune. If you need a set of 02 extensions let me know i have a extra pair we could work out a good deal on.

thanks for the advice fellas...so does this mean that I should stay away from a handheld and instead put my money towards go fast parts??

I say if you have a lot of money to throw at it then get all the parts you can afford and put them on, then get a custom tune(not handheld). Make sure your done modding for a while because a good tune will cost a pretty penny.

[L3THAL_Z28]

im tight on money actually...i just dont want that damn ses light to come on after the LTs install...id rather get all my bolt ons and then tune...will 02 sims fix that until i can afford the rest along w/ a tune??

[xinthenight]

+1 on the custom tune over getting a friend to do it.

Also, no need to bump your thread while it's still one of the top 6-7 threads on page 1.

[L3THAL_Z28]

someone suggested that I get a mail order tune after I get my LTs...would that be a quick solution??
