Default What Gains Can I Expect!?!??!?!?!
got an exhaust question...i got a magnaflow catback, slp lid, and a TB bypass on my 2000 Z28...i want to buy an ORY and Pacesetter LTs and was wondering how much horsepower and torque I would approximately gain w/ and without a tune.

Someone w/ hp tuners charges me $100 to delete my O2 rear sensors after I install my LTs n ORY...is that too much just for the 02s...if so should I just get all of my bolt ons and then get a custom tune??

With those mods and a tune I would expect 335-345 rwhp on a 2000. I say get a tune now, then tune again after you do all the other bolt ons.

^^+1. A tune after the boltons you listed really woke my car up. Mines a 98 with 2000 ls1 swap. I just have bad traction problems now

My buddy did mine for free, but he usually charges about $450. But it's a good tune and he also does some extras for free if there is something you add later like gears etc.. Everything else charges about a $100 per mod. Like cam, H/ C, anything along those lines.

Lid, bypass and cat-back will net you about 2rwhp. The headers will net you around 25+/- rwhp.

The lid by itself is worth more than 2 rwhp

pm Wait4me

Have him do a mail order tune for you, should be around the 100 dollars shipped price. he can delete rear 02, egr, adjust for gear, and give you a decent bolt on tune.
