Default While I wait...

on my warrenty to run out on my 2011 Camaro I wanna play with my daily driver 4.8.

I just wanna make it alittle more fun to drive.

Right now I'm thinking.

CAI
Headers
gears.

Question which gears should I go with. I drive highway a good bit and the only thing I really tow is my jet ski.

Also I'm looking at the pacesetter headers and ypipe combo from texas speed. I used them on my old fbodys and for the price never had a complaint. But on the trucks do you need 02 extenders or not?

I also found a turbo kit of craigslist a guy pulled off his 04 SSS.

4.11s or 4.88s. I noticed about a. 2 to. 4 drop in MPG but gears did wonders for acceleration in my ecsb 4.8. If I had to do it all over again I would have just put a turbo kit on mine from the get go. Instead of spending the money I have to get mine where it is now.

The MPG drop was city driving also, on the hwy, the truck doesn't have to grab another gear to maintain speed up a hill anymore. So I actually gained MPG on the hwy cruising at 2300RPMs this is with 4.11s and 29" tire
