Re: S197 Power Upgrades (and cosmetic) your thoughts?

Your first choice should be the tuner and CAI. I got 26 HP (dyno proven) from those two alone. Plus the car just drives so much better. You'll be amazed at the difference.

Why not get them from the shop in Woodbine? It's close, it's supposed to be very good, and you will establish a relationship with people who can advise and install your other goodies as you buy them.

Also, Sheehy Ford in G-Burg is having a cruise in on the 5th. Let me know if you want to caravan on down.

I am calling Woodbine this week. I will be out of town for the 5th and live very close to the Sheehy location. How about tomorrow if the weather holds for Kip Killmon? If you want to go let me know.

Yes, and also less rotational mass (the engine/tranny don't work so hard spinning that big heavy factory two-piece).

Hey boss281 so the UPD's are not worth putting on. I paid 65.00 for a set of Steeda pullies for my 08 but if not worth it I am not going to pay a shop to put them on. Let me know. I dont have the tools or know how when it comes to the crankshaft pulley
