Stage 3 Performance Package
Going to Mid-America FunFest next weekend,and MAD is offering some nice discounts. Was wondering what you all think of there Stage 3 Performance Package. Looking to Modify my 2001 Vette. Here are the mods.
Hi-flow 175 Thermostat
Increased flow mass air flow sensor
coolant bypass kit
Magna core spark plug wires
Perfomance throttle body
Cold air induction grills
Corsa X-pipe
All for $1270.00 less show discount.
Is it worth it? Can I do some thing better w/other products for the same price? Any input will be appreciated. Thanks. Charlie

I agree with above... The x-pipe and thermostat are a good idea, but you need a fan controller to get much use from the thermo. I don't think the throttle body or MAF will help you at all. Spark plug wires won't give you HP.
