cant just put a chip in that car, have to go with a flash tuner. If you need any work done to the car talk to Fran at RPM. Shop is in Claymont and he is a sponsor on here. Make sure to check out the Eastern section on here and you will find several threads dealing with his shop. He is always willing to help someone out. You can talk to him,me or others on the site here if you have any questions about mods to your car or anything else

Can someone talk about all the bolt on mods you can possibly do to this Camaro?

I know you can flash tune or chip it, install high flowing headers and straight exhaust piping, and if you don't mind noise straight thru mufflers will flow the best, intake upgrades and flow, what else can one do? I am really new to these cars and still learning.....Am I missing anything else?

Let me guess, united auto sales?


I got my firehawk trans am from there.


The owner is a dick, but what are you gonna do. He had a big sign on it that it was a one owner, and i requested a carfax but it was really two owners. Oh well.


Good luck with the SS.

I'm sure the car is fine, but just watch out for the owner, he is an ***. I would hate to have to do any warranty work with him. How much was it might I ask?


I got my firehawk with all SLP options for $18,200 with 31,000 miles on it.


Thats as low as I could negotiate even with it not being a one owner. It still runs good but it came with warped/cracked rotors which I still have yet to replace.

His warranty is what I was afraid of when purchasing the car, its some independent company not a dealer. Good luck man.
