Default ** First Mods..opinions ? **

So here is what I want to start with for my base 2011

Lg 1 7/8 Headers
B&B Bullet 4" round
Callaway Honker
HP TUNE / dyno tuned w/that program


My goal is this for this summer and good sized cam next spring...possibly s/c after that...

What do you think ?

Have you heard bullets with headers???? A lot of people start out like that and end up with a wtt bullets thread. If you are going FI don't mess with a cam. Just a waste of money bc then you will have to get a blower cam. Just letting you know if you didn't already you can kiss your warranty goodbye....

I know about the warranty ... The place I am installing says they work with a local dealer that with those mods will still honor the warranty... Also I thought the ls3 was very reliable with these starting mods... Am I wrong?

Secondly I heard the headers with bullets was extremely loud. That was the only drawback.... If that's true then loud is what I am after... Never been one for a quiet muscle car.... Would that be accurate?

If you drive the car, you may get a lot of drone with that setup you should listen to other cars with that setup first.
