NEW TO THE FAMILY!

Hey everyone! My name is Rico. I’m from Stafford VA, I’m 22, and this is my 4th Camaro. I originally had a 2014 V6 bass model... had it for 2 years and craved more power and looks... so in 2016, I landed on a auto trader post for a 2015 1LE Camaro. Had never heard of it but it was affordable and it looked amazing so I bought it. Wasn’t till the week of that I researched what it was and really found out what a power house the 1LE is. Unfortunately that Camaro was wrecked by a drunk driver and I ended up buying a 2017 1SS that just didn’t live up the the standards so now I have a 2018 1SS 1LE in White! First mod is Kooks long tube headers! Is there anything else that I should do right away that’s fast and cheap?

Supercharging gives you the most horsepower per dollar. Particularly if you can find a used factory LT4 blower someone took off their ZL1 or Z06 to upgrade to something larger. The factory LT4 blower is more than enough to max out the fuel injectors that come on the LT1.

I plan on staying N/A though. Ive done my research and this is the mod list I plan on doing early next year. The goal is to add about 100 hp to the wheels, add no weight and even reduce it a little, and to maintain near stock street driveability.

Rotofab cold air intake with oiled filter and sound tube delete ($450)

Pray Performance ported factory throttle body and intake manifold ($550)

Texas Speed CNC cylinder head and camshaft package with upgraded valve springs/retainers, "SV" camshaft, and DOD delete with eight new lifters ($2000)

Kooks 1 7/8" long tube headers with green catted connection pipes and spark plug boot protectors (part #2260h430) ($2000)

Skip shift delete kit ($25)

Shrader Performance rear seat delete kit ($270)

Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires ($1500ish)

You may want to consider staying with the stock GY F1 3 tires, to be able to put that power down.

I think it will be wasted HP/TQ from tire slippage in the lower gears with lesser tires.
