+1....get the exhaust, I don't think you get much of an HP gain, but u do get a nice sound & look !




Its been proven that there is as much or almost as much whp gain from a single exhaust vs. duals. It's not the y pipe, or the piping at all, that's restrictive, it's the muffler itself. Duals do look great, but doing duals is more for the "look" on the 6 unless you go turbo.

Yeah you just have to go when theres an open day, like street drags night or something and you can run your car I think its like $15. Just go to your local tracks website and they should have information, if not just call them.

CAI, Exhaust and tuner, roughly 30 RWHP. RPM outlet says their pulley system adds 16 RWHP. Supercharger is the best way to go. You'll be pulling around 300 RWHP with a SC or TC.

No a stock Gt is running about 250+RWHP stock. So when you get there or higher than you can probably take down a Gt but until then stick with eating ricers and older Gts.

GT's are around 300 flywheel horsepower but RWHP which means horsepower to the rear wheels is around 250+, V6's are 210 to the flywheel and around 150-180 RWHP stock.

When dealers are trying to sell the cars. What sounds better 300 or 250? Steamline the driveline and you'll get more of the horsies to the wheels!!

Dont know? But I see your sig and it states that you definetely want to beat a Gt bad, in that case just save up some dough and get your self some type of F/I and youll be whooping not only stock Gts but lightly modified Gts.
