This is the first time I'm having a hard time deciding if I'm going to modify the car beyond just cat back exhaust. I am really wanting to do full exhaust, cia and a tune. All the other cars I've had and modified usually end up with superchargers or turbos. I thought buying this car I would be able to fight the urge, but it's worse than ever. I have a deposit for the new gt350 at my dealer for next year so this wasn't going to be a long term car.

Will I notice the gains with full exhaust, cai and tune? I always do big jumps with forced induction and never steps. I'm trying to keep from adding a supercharger since I want the gt350. I'm very torn for some reason with this decision.

I was planning on ordering the frpp sprit exhaust on Monday, but will I be losing power on the table going with a 2.5 exhaust over a 3" if I do go full exhaust.


Sorry for all the questions and thanks in advance.

Full exhaust (long tubes and catback), CAI and tune will net you likely 50RWHP/40RWTQ. Those are peak gains. Area under the curve will be even greater, likely the mid-range would be 60+.

Those gains are very, very noticeable.

What does that mean in track times? I usually go from stock to force induction so not sure what 50 rwhp will mean at the track.

With some tires you should be in the 11s I'd think. I think Bama went 10s with that and weight reduction and some suspension work.

Sorry for all the questions and thanks in advance.

Let us know if we can help you out on the exhaust and if you have any further questions!

I would like to ask what exactly your plans are. Do you plan to actually supercharge later on? Have you looked into Suspension (as limited as that may be).

If I didn't want the sound of the 5.2 fpc in the gt350 I would supercharge my current car till the gt500 comes back. I'm just not sure what to do yet, but I definitely want more power.
