Default New 1SS in black

Just got a base/cloth black 6 speed last night. Just coming back from a 08 Bullitt. Love this car, way more power then the bullitt even tho it had a SCT brenspeed tune and catback. Sticker was 32 and then got incentives and "employee" pricing. Downloaded the program back to the tuner, who do I send it to for a tune and is a CAI, pulley set a nice improvement? How about bird poop etching ?

Lots of good info on camaro5.com for basic upgrades on these cars. Get a dyno tune, no one makes a handheld worth a ****.

i wouldn't waste money on a catback unless you want to actually hear the car, stock mufflers flow very well. Longtubes would be great as they yield the most power out of bolt ons. im getting rid of the heavy 20" stock wheels for some 18" forgestars. im pretty sure that will make a difference. i would also get a catch can. like he said ^ LOTS of great info on camaro5

Never, ever, let birdshit sit on your car. Get it off soon as posible.

LOL, just a watch-it for a new car owner.
Birdcrap has an acid in it. The longer it sits there, the more damage it does to your clear coat.

CAI, ADM Scoop, Shifter, Ported TB, LTs, high flow cats, bushings, sways, Toe rods, and Trailing Arms. Skip the cat-back, no HP there. Lots of drone with some of them.
