Default power upgrades

exhaust this week-end on 03,hopefully get a little bump in power and a big bump in sound! Just wondering if anyone has installed the hurricane air induction system? Its a little pricy, but boasts a 36 HP gain! Would love to hear from anyone who has installed this. Also is their anything to the throttle body extender that's supposed to boost power? Just trying to get bump in power without cam, intake etc. for now. Help, advice would be appreciated, thanks, Tom

grats on the exhaust install. If I were you, I would change the title of your thread to reflect your questions about an intake product so you get people to come in here who may have had some experience with it.

good luck

Throttle body extender? Do you mean a spacer between the throttle body and the intake manifold? If so, they don't really do anything for a LS unless you are at 7,000+ rpm as all they do is increase plenum volume and the LS series already has a lot of plenum volume.
