Auto trans? If so add a convertor to your list.

You should have started this in the "project" forum, maybe a mod can move it there for you? that way you can keep track of all the progress you made and its in the "technical" threads.

Sorry bout that. edited the post and added auto trans. also MODS feel free to move this thread to proper place

a converter is one of the biggest things you can do.. but with exhause get long tube headers... all brands are prety good, ive owned pace setter, jett hott, and hooker, my fav of those are my jett hotts... cold air, my fav is the SLP twin tube but i own the moroso. rear gear go motive or richmond only!!! your car doesnt take a chip... and dont get a hypertechhh... after you put all these bolt ons in give a call up to madZ28 or whatever they are called now and have them do something for you... for a car back any will work... and tips, i love the look of stock but thats your preferance my fav sounding cat back is GMMG stainless but its way expensive and i always end up taking my cars to a buddy who owns a muffler shop and getting custom stuff done.

No chip - get a tune.

pcm4less or madZ28 (or whatever its called now) no point in wasting 450 bucks on a dyno tune on bolt ons.

my neighbor is a big car guy.. he has alot of friends that work at auto shops and would do all the work for 100 bucks and a case of beer after hours... so keep it coming.. my neighbor thinks i can get all the parts for $1000.00.. im not sure if hes right or wrong..

[MP81]

Yeah, I could see everyone being had for under 1k.

any good websites to go to to get this stuff? if everyone could add a link with there sugestion that would be great. sorry for being so needy! ive never had a car before this one so i have no idea where to start and no idea what sites are reputable so i dont want to just shop based on price and get screwed.. also he says ill get 30-40 true HP with these upgrades is that about right?

I plan on buying all new

Need some pointers from LTX guys, but I think you're looking for at 1500 not counting the trans. Do you have a manual right now? Also, I wouldn't expect to gain more than 20 hp from those things. It will be quicker with the gears, but you're not going to be pushing too much more power

1. Cold Air: I would say lingenfelter performance CAI.

2. Rear Axle Gear (ring & Pinion): 3.73 gears, oem or richmond are good, and a stall converter.

3. Computer chip: Once all the other boltons are on a pcm tune from madz28

4. Exhaust muffler and tips: If you wanna spend the money i would say GMMG all the way, IMO my kooks/gmmg combo is the best sounding car i have ever heard, if not then a SLP loudmouth.

Gears and a stall are going to run you $1000 alone for quality stuff if you buy new.
