i recently bought a 01 Z28 A4 and im wanting to start modding it..... i purchased a SLP lid already and im wondering what should be done next...... im not wanting power adders anytime in the near future...my list of things to do is full exhaust, stall, cam, and gears.......what would be the first thing to do??

msydow

full exhaust and tune....i like the TSP headers for the price. this is assuming you have done a full service on the car. all fluids and filters, brakes, belts, whatever it needs. where you at in texas?

get everything you can afford installed first. remember youll need money for tuning.

im from Lufkin tx but im working in La Porte......i was thinking the pacesetters coated with magnaflow....im gona be doing one mod a month...i was thinking doing the exhaust first but i just wanted opinions from ppl that have been down this road before...this is the first fbody ive owned

msydow

sounds good to me. i am just south of houston. if you do full exhaust dont forget it will need a tune. good luck. there are a lot of threads to help you out on here.

dyno tuning is what youll need after any mods that change your AFR. so have money for that.

so who would be a good tuner around this area? and like what does dyno tuning cost around here? from how yall are saying to save money sounds to me like its pretty expensive?

it can get expensive but you get what you pay for.

do the cat back,headers,gears,,intake,P&P throttle body or buy one if funds avaliable,cam,tune

edub80

iTrader: (2)

i already have the ls6 intake so thats covered....im just curious of what to do after the headers....do i go with gears first or cam or stall.....i mean if i was a wealthy person i could do it all at once but that nots the case....like i said im gona do one thing a month....guess this month im doing the headers so i gues i have a few weeks to decide what the next mod will be

madmike9396

iTrader: (29)

id do a cat back before the headers if u dont have one !

madmike9396

iTrader: (29)

cat back then headers IMO then full suspension IMO then stall next gears next tune !

Then save up for a cam swap !

I also am a middle class guy that (***** ON A BUDGET) lol

Im in the middle of buying stuff for a cam swap, all the small crap adds up

yeah im gona do the pacesetter coated longtube with y pipe and magnaflow all at once...then i was thinking either gears or stall next lol......just really dont know if i wana do the stall right now being that the tranny has a 100k on it now and dont know if it will hold up lol

madmike9396

iTrader: (29)

go with full suspension after the exhaust is complete.

Remember u can have 500 horses but if u cant hook a 350 hp car that does hook will walk you !

traction plays a big roll in racing IMO
