Default Lumina ss mods

Hi guyz, just registered to this forum.. and excited to meet u all!

I have a red lumina ss coupe (middle eastern spec) and wanted to put some mods, what do u think should i go with in the beginning to push 40 to 50 horses! Im thinking of a cat-back exhaust , headers w/ y pipe, intake system, camshaft, shift kit, tranny cooler, torque converter and a tuning program. Not to mention sticky tires with lowered springs.

I dont know if which products will fit my car since all of u have different LS1 models.. What do u think will work for my car as a daily driver?

If you wanna mod a Lumina SS get Commodore parts they are the same car but with different names. Don’t try ordering parts from US all you need are Australian parts

The Lumina SS cars are the RHD like the US right? If you want some headers we have some long tubes that clear your steering rack Pictures and Dyno #'s in a matter of days. Other than that the AUS parts will work, but I am confident the US aftermarket will push this car further then it has been.

I'm not sure.. I thought the only headers available were pacemaker. My car is the same as the monaro but left-hand drive. It is 328 HP LS1 engine.. What performance parts do u have?

I’m with Speed Inc. AUS headers might not fit because they must clear the LHD steering rack, other than that most Holden parts should fit

If it's not too much trouble, you should post pictures of your Lumina sometime, there aren't many good ones online, not even on GM's sites...
