I bet you are considering it was your idea. You get the first one.

Things certainly have changed over the last say, 10 years. Back then I was buying Mustangs and remember lining up upgrades for my 06 Mustang GT the night before I picked it up. New Borla exhaust, cold air kit from K&N, lowering springs from Eibach, camber plates from BBK and high rate sway bars from Ford Racing were all in the line up and would give me projects to do all summer. Best part was is that you could actually feel or hear the difference with each modification. It gave you the feeling that you were creating a unique custom tuned car just for you. You also had something you could share on the forums, in the parking lot or at a car show with other Mustang owners.
Fast forward to my latest purchase of a 2SS with NPP and MRC. I've got to tell you that it would be very difficult for me to do better on this car. I'm very happy being able to select the exhaust note and MRC has performed better than any set up I've owned. From what I have read cold air kits on these cars have very minimal if any value and if you add a high flow filter that value shrinks even further. With all these items off the list the only true "bolt ons" that I've seen at my level of ability to add on is basically a catch can which again there is some debate as to it's effectiveness/value. Even going after the vanity mod aspect is getting more difficult. Being a 2SS I actually really like my interior as it is. Being a daily driver that sees snow duty lowering the car doesn't make sense and ground effects are too much of a liability. The only thing I would really like to change out is the spoiler as I personally think the car would look much better without it or with the RS blade. Only issue here is that you either have to find someone with an RS (in hyper blue, in Michigan if you're out there) that wants an SS wing or get ready for some paint work to fill holes, which to means it isn't a bolt on. I guess I'm kind of a victim of a company giving me everything I've asked for. Out of the box this new Camaro is wicked fast and has had more of what I want (except spoiler delete) that I have ever been able to get off the shelf, ever. Not a bad place to end up but it has taken something away at the same time. Last edited by bturner2; 11-30-2017 at 07:12 AM. |

I'd be curious to know how much added weight will be involved with the TSP rockers?

If you haven't done it yet, go buy the tuning software and start picking brains, it's very self satisfying when your car runs like a raped ape. Great input from some good guys on this thread....damn I love this site !!

I am not sure. After running the LS TFS heads and aftermarket rockers way back I have been done with them. I run the stock rockers with trunion upgrades.

Like I said, with only 10% and the A/C being stock I wouldn't expect mare than 5-7rw tops. Could help the motor spin up faster and better manage the high rpm harmonics though. Three pounds of rotating mass on the crank is quite a bit.

I had a semi ram/scoop setup on my 2011 Camaro. How will yours work? |
