I wouldn't waste your money on a Granatteli. It depends on how much money you have to spend, the gears in my opinion are the best mod you can do, but if they are out of reach, maybe a NOS kit. You can add up to 150 hp safely for around $750.

Don't waste your money on a LS6 intake either! :cheers:

So gears sound like the way to go.. I will check on my vette to see what it came with. Thanks for the tips. I wouldn't want to waste any money. Any suggestions on getting my gears upgraded. I will check to see what I have stock. Thanks again for the help.
