Where do I start? Just bought me a 2008 Chevrolet Impala SS, looking to beef the sound up but not looking to spend a whole lot of money right now. I just want some throat, no over kill. What are some other cheap mods i can do to this car the will boost the power, like a chip, or cold air intake. Help me out, I am new to this forum and a car i want to make faster.
Cheap way is a res delete

u can get mufflers and take off ur resonator if u dont want a really loud car. Thrush welded mufflers are good mufflers and cheap. u can get them at pepboys or advance auto parts. go on youtube and check out the sound. u can also get a K&N cold air intake and get the car tuned for better performance

In a nutshell, it makes your exhaust louder or quieter with the flick of a switch. As long as the cutout is placed after the cat you are OK as far as inspection goes.

The first thing I did to the car was a tune and K&N. According to the G-tech knocked 1/2 second off the 1/4 mile. Defiantly worth the bang for the buck. I like the sound of the muffler delete cars, just my 2 cents.
