Cool New member (02 WS6)

Hey everyone, new member here. I just bought a red 02 WS6 6 spd only 2000 miles. Was looking to do a few mods to it (but keep it pretty much stock). I guess the SLP flow pac is pretty popular and was wondering if anyone could tell much difference in power by adding it and/or the SLP mass air flow sensor. Also, as far as using the power programmers, what does everyone recommend or is it even worth the money? Thanks and I'll try to get some pics up soon!

Sounds like a nice ride, I wish mine had that kind of mileage. If it were me I wouldn't touch a thing. If you want a car to mod I'll trade you straight up!

a new lid, high flow air filter, SLP smooth bellows (yes it actually gives you alittle bit of hp!!!!!), lt's (if their legal in your state) and either cat back or chop it in the middle of the car and add some shotgun resonators!!!!!! i was told programmers are crap and to save for a tune, could be wrong on this one someone else will chim in to give more advice. congrats on the bird!!!!

If you have a laptop, then hptuners or efilive is your best bet. No limitations and its not a whole lot more money. But you have to do all the work.

Good luck trying not to mod it once you get started. If you are only gonna do a couple things do an exhaust, lid, tune, and shifter. Do you ever plan on going to the track? If you do that opens a whole new can of worms. 9", clutch, SFC's, and sticky tires. Like I said good luck only doing a little. If it where me I'd park that thing for about 20 years and sell it for a bundle.
