Anyone mod their car "All at once" It just makes more sense to me to install everything at once. 1998 SS M6
pacesetter Lt headers
tsp catted y
ls6 intake
ported t/b
tr224 114
918 springs
under-drive pulley
Anybody ever do this all at once. Hopefully ill have something around 370-380 rwhp after tune. It will be fun going from a basically stock car to something that will be a lot different the first time I drive it. Anybody have any suggestions on what else I could do. I am sticking with the stock heads for now. Man this is going to be fun.

I did an H/C and headers all at once on my present car and then it took about a week to tune it my self.
It was easy for me because I already had experience with those kinds of mods from my very first new 01 LS1 Camaro car I had. RIP.

Nobody I know has done their mods all at once but only because money isn't growing on trees in NY. Most guys I know have a payment on the car and buy a part or two every month or two.

doing them all together is the logical thing to do. this mod helps that one, and this one makes this one work better, etc. this is why companies like SLP sell packages. if i had the cash id do it all at once, but since i dont, im doing them in order from most important to least. or if i find a killer deal on something.

i dont think it would be a good technical decision either....seeing as a good bit of us have problems with modifications we do...well we do them one at a time so we can tell whats screwed up....if you put all those parts on at once and something strange comes up, thats alot of **** your going to have to check
