What's the 1st performance mod of choice?
So what's everyone doing to see some power gains where there is no tuning required?

Ok so Afe or Halltech cai and an Xpipe. I'm assuming it's an xpipe with high flow cats then?

Has anyone had a dynomometer run before and after to identify the gain?

Weapon-X for me. Noticeably better throttle response
I'd say the best FIRST mod is an MGW shifter if you have the M7.

you order from mgwshifters.com
They might still have the 10% off from black friday, if not you might give them a call and see if they will honor it.
I went ahead and purchased one even though my order is still months away.

To the OP see my sig for x pipe and throttle body review. Definitely get a CAI as well.
Best,

This is the most important mod and will generate much greater performance than the mods mentioned. Knowing how to drive the car is important and once you know how to do that you can actually use the power provided by GM.
