free mods are things that can be done for free or cheap, <$10 there are 3 well known ones, the AIR/EGR or emissions delete, the TB bypass that has been dyno proven to add 6-7hp at the rear wheels, then you can delete the catalytic converter, hollow it out or put a pipe in its stead

some people descreen the MAF, but i dont like it.. the screen straightens the air for a better reading.. also if they didnt work people wouldnt put them in there sigs... or wouldnt do them period. they work, i did the TB bypass and the egr/air delete.. picks up alittle..

My $.02 on the MAF De-Screen. My car seemed to lose power in doing so. Or responce I should say. It just didnt feel good on tip in like it did with the screen in. Word is that alot of LT1s are rich to begin with and De-Screening opens up air flow and leans them out for some extra power, however, if you car is stoich to begin with then you may not notice a gain. My advice is to pull the screen and see what you feel. If you take it out carfully, you can just put it back in if you arent all that impressed.
