You say you want to build things up before boost and make 500 before 700.
so, (assuming older gen) Cobra jet intake, injectors, throttle body AND cams… just to get you to 500… realistically almost 10 grand … to make 500 before you take all that off and install boost for ANOTHER 10 grand and...
Ok… my 2 cents.
Get the cats off the car, either headers or deletes.
Go stage 2, don’t waste money/time with stage 1, upgrading later is crazy expensive
Don’t bother with OPGs, huge waste of time and money.
Don’t worry about warranty… you just have to get it out of your mind, if you eat a...
Funny, I actually have jones max flows on my foxbody also… quietest mufflers I could find…

The packing is what tones the volume and any rasp.
It’s the generic of magnaflow, you can buy theirs also… same exact material and welds ..4X the price for laser engraving
I had my resonator replaced with this, they have a 2.5 in size if you don’t have headers, it’s a muffled X pipe, quited the car down a ton and cleaned up tone.
ICE needs some technological advances to keep up…
Mod motors are now decade(s) old tech…

hopefully the ZR1 trickles down and we’re all in TT FPC’s
If you want a tuneable car get an old foxbody and megasquirt or Holley.
this trend isn’t changing, all that being said the factory tune is pretty damn good, and whipples tune is as good or better than any aftermarket tune I’ve ever had.
Go look at the new C8 corvette procharger kits… like 20grand.
the whipple is such a bargain I don’t know why people even bother looking past it.
Best 10 grand I’ve ever spent easily
