I've really done some research on getting the 18 Intake Mani or GT350 intake Mani. Just gonna come down to what one I get the better price on. Gonna combo it with some headers and retune. Should be noticeable improvement over 5krpms.
Im not planning boost. However I dont have "a guy" to get me threw inspection here in NY. So catted was really my only option. I do want the power and sound.
I drive the car quite often in the summer time. I think I will be happy with the sound when its combo'd with my MBRP Race catback. Catless might be too much rasp and drone. And I wont notice the power it losses with the cat on... maybe lose 5hp. Not looking for big power. Keeping car NA with...
I found that some catless cars sound a bit to raspy/tinny. I kinda figured the power wouldnt really be noticeable. I think Imma gonna go high flow cats on the headers I order over the winter. I will pair them with my MBRP cat back with H pipe. Should sound deep and how I want it.
Any real noticeable difference between the two? Power wise and sound wise? I live in NY and dont have a hook up to get non catted headers to pass NYS inspection.
I think it loos awesome! And the addition of the GT350 transmission is great! But its all gonna depend on price.
Will it beat a 1LE around a track for a similar price:question:
You shouldnt have even put it on till you had the tune. When you buy the NGauge from Lund they ask whats done to the car. So they can send you a tune for those mods. For instance I told them I was putting on a JLT intake and MRPB catback race exhaust. So they pulled a base file for those mods...
