get hooker LT's w/ y pipe.. pace setter is good for someone in low budget but its cheap quality... hooker is better quality, fits better, and has a better y-pipe... as SA said u can find moroso in bahrain and mahmood janahi does good port job. NGK tr55's with msd wires are great but not for power just a better replacement for the OEM parts.

what is ur final drive ratio? if u have 3.23 and wanna drag race get ur self 3.73 ratio. lt1 is a torquey engine it will benefit a lot from a camshaft and tuning the PCM. Shift-kit will give u firmer shifts if u dont like ur current shifting firmness. you can also add 150 shot of NOS safely..

for more information, the best guy to talk to is salman kaween, the lt1 expert.

[ED]

thnx guys.

[Thug Life]

i say go for

moroso air intake
port the throttle bodie or BBK 58mm throttle bodie
pullys
hooker super comp' headers
flowmaster muffler and custom Y pipe
transgo shift kit
oil gear cooler B&M
3.73 or 3.42
lower the car for good downforce
MAF
programmer oo gam el shoo6

[Ls-1 Master]

LT1 needs

headers
rockers
cam
3.73
tb.

[Black Beast]

btw best mods for lt1/ls1 bang for the buck:

1. Long tube headers
2. Camshaft, springs, retainers, pushrods.. and roller rockers if LT1
3. CAI
4. Tuning handheld programmer or editor
5. Drag Radials
6. Stall converter 3000+
7. Shorter gears (if you have 2.73)
8. Last but not least NOS

mods which dont give u power at all (in my opinion):

1. aftermarket MAF/ only zo6 mafs have proven to give power on ls1's
2. chips

mods that give u slight difference:

1. Ported TB
2. cat-back
3. pulleys (on M6 cars)
4. electric water pump

[ED]

i'll keep that in mind, thank you guys.

any one knows how much is the editor and does any of the shops in bahrain sell it?

what do u want programmer, lt1edit, tunercat?

shops only have hypertech availalbe u would have to order lt1edit/tunercat

[ED]

i think ill go with tunercat, as i read its better na cheaper than LT1edite.

dude, modding makes you spend alot of money and gives you a headache.. Just get a cat back exhaust system and a filter.

no need to race, no need to impress, no need to drag.. just enjoy the car bro :up2:

First off, I'm doing it for my self, an Im not taking my car the the strip.

and about modding being a headache, dude, this is a Chevy, moding it is aint no headache.

but thanks for dvice doc.

headers, rockers, camshafts, and shorter gears. thats your best bet, most bang for the buck, everything else will just add tiny bits of power here and there...

[Black Beast]

get the tunercat.. its cheaper right and make sure it has the same features as lt1edit. if u need help, call me or TAG or anyone who knows what hes doing. good luck with ur car bro.. we need more fast chevys on the road.

by the way did u do a compression test?

all the mods i listed is the price of cat-back and cold air intake for m5.. so why not mod if its cheap?

[Kayman]

We're not talking about M5s here.. Why do you need to heavy mod the car? Just let it breathe easier, CAI and a cat back is the way to go... laish it3awir rasik with cams, headers, oo 3fsa...

I don't think sarz is into the racing scene, he just wants to enjoy the car and free up a few ponnies :)

cai is good..
exhaust is not worth it..

why is headers 3awar ras? camshaft is also easy to replace.. :pimp:

[Kayman]

maybe for a chevy but not a BMW... why small mistake and the engine is gone :bounce:
