Default More questions!!

I want to start off by saying thank you to everyone who answers my questions. Ive had my Vette for about a month and this forum is a Godsend!!! I have learned so much and every time I ask a question I get a whole handful of replies.
Anyway. to my next queston. Im working from th nose back on my mods. You can check out what Ive done so far on my webpage http://www.americanmusclepics.com and you are all welcome to post your own pics there. Anyway Im thinking of fuel injectors, plugs, and wires. What do you reccomend? Is is worth it or necessary? What kind of fuel injectors should I buy? What kind of performance will they give me? And do I need ls1 edit after that? And how much are people paying for the ls1 edit?? Thats it for now I dont want to overload anyone!! Thanks alot!! :flag

from you webpage, it looks like the only performance mod so far is the vararam, i would think that it is to early for new injectors and any gains you might possably get from the plugs and wires would not be worth the trouble unless the stock ones are bad. I would say that you are better off spending your money else where for now. Maybe start with an exhaust system or headers.

:cheers:

:iagree:
You can start with plugs and wires, but the injectors I think can wait till you go with heads and cam or a supercharger. Catback sytems, and LT headers or even new gears are going to give you the "biggest bang for the buck" :thumbs:
