Default Quick Mods
I recently purchased an 05 coupe stocker. I tried some small inexpensive stuff like PPTB, x-pipe & K&N filters with modded air box. I don't have any dyno numbers but let me tell u it was like waking a sleeping giant. Mine is an automatic I hit it at 30 and the tires broke loose and she turned into a Tasmanian Devil as apposed to the way it was before these simple, cheap mods. I can only estimate 15-20 HP. Just thought I would share. Thanks to everyone out there that contributes valued information.
