PCM itself those chips don't work. IMO

 

Yea i have the entire exhaust ordered already and within the next few days i'm going to order the driveshaft and 3:73 rear gears! Appriciate it

 

long tubes, intake, subframe connectors... dont go loudmouth... try GMMG or borla

 

Why not loudmouths? i have heard them on lt1s and they sound good!!

 

they are too obnoxious. friend had one on his z. GMMG or borla sounds so ****** smooth and it doesnt give you a headache.

 

Its not my everyday car so the noise wouldnt bother me as long as it dont sound like bad!!

 

haha. IMHO, if you dont drive it much, just go straight pipes.

 

I have Pacesetter lt's and ory. I also have an SLP loudmouth catback. It's about as loud as you can get and it's pretty bad if you're driving to the store to get groceries. On the other hand I've been stopped by several people telling me it sounds great and asking questions about what I have on my car. It's all on how much noise you want to deal with.

 

Yea i want to turn alot of heads with it so i guess i will accomplish that lol

 

lol, that will work if you want attention. Like I said people always stop me and ask about my exhaust so it can't be that bad.

 

What would say bout adding an electric cuout??

 

The loudmouth is a straight through exhaust. With the lt's and ory you have little backpressure as it is. If you spent the money on a cutout it would maybe at most give you a 1 - 2 hp gain and sound like ****. I honestly don't think it's worth it.

 

Yea the only other person i have talked to about it is one of my buddies with a GT and he said dont do it b/c it will eventually leak and will sound like ****, but i paid him no attention b/c he drives a mustang lol

 

I agree with him on what he said though. Most do leak pretty bad. I also think it's more fun to drive the car to the track in complete street form and still get good times. If you have any more questions I'd be more than happy to help.

 

Have two other questions that nobody else has answered on here n maybe u can!!! I want to get a 58mm TB but dont know what brand and do you kno if the MAF ends are worth it or if even descreening the stock one???

 

Descreening the stock maf isn't really bad. It's only bad if you're not running an air filter to protect it. When PCM for less tuned my computer they made adjustments for the descreened maf. The maf ends are worth nothing. Keep it stock. As far as the 58mm tb, you don't need it. At most I would suggest a 52mm but only as a supporting mod if you did a cam swap, supercharger/turbo, or nitrous. Stock tb will flow more than enough unless you get into forced induction or nitrous.

 

Later down the line i want to put a diff cam, but that wont be any time soon so i guess i will wait until then to look into a new TB!!! Thanks alot!!

 

No problem. Hope everything works out for you. Good luck with the car.

 

Do a head/cam package when u get ready to tho. Do it right the first time. You will get gains from a cam only, but to compliment it, go ahead and get heads too. Lloyd Elliot or Advanced Inductions seems to be the way to go.

 

That's great if you have the money but there's also the option of just getting the work done to the stock heads. Not sure what all that costs anywhere else but here I'd be saving over $1,000 to do it this way. Good call though. Heads always wake a cam up.
