Default Need help from all know it alls!!! 8=)

Folks,

I have scoured the entire pages, seen everyone's opinions on different individual perofrmance parts, and a few packages, but need to ask for a favor. I have decided to go for the gusto and see what I can put together for a bolt-on package/system that I can add to my 2000 stock C5. For those that are willing to e-mail me (so I won't clog up the list), I am looking for the list and combo of:

intake
filter
exhaust
MAF mods
Chip
etc.

I don't think I am looking to take the step of heads and valves, but open to it. If you can guestimate the approximate cost of each, even better.

Thanks in advance!
Matt

I believe Ermie at Breathless Perfomance offers just what you want as a group and could save a couple bucks. :steering:

Matt,
Contact one of the forum vendors. I'm sure they will glad to come up with a package deal for you.

In my opnion, I'd go with:

filter: Blackwing $200
exhaust: SLP Loudmouth $500
leave the MAF alone $0
Have the ECM custom tuned $300 to $500 depending on who's doing it.

You may also want to consider an LS6 intake $400 plus $300 labor to install and a set of longtube headers $1,000 plus $400 to install.

Hey what do you know...pretty much the same stuff I have done. :)
