SO WHY THE 2017 CAMARO SS???
The Camaro SS or Mustang GT, either would make a feasible goal. But I'm not going to open that can of worms of which is better than the other. So the only reason I want to stay competitive with these cars is because I'm tired of seeing these cars pull or drive next to me reving their engines and accelerating and decelerating. Crap, the other day I even had a Sonata turbo rev his engine at me at a red light. I just want enough power to get the respect of these vehicles who seem to bully my car on the road.
But I'm not drag racing these cars. I'm not flying through a track. I just want to pull before them on a rolling start and get them frustrated for how difficult it is to catch up to me. I know it may sound silly but it's just difficult to put in words what I want to achieve. |
First of all, you are on the wrong part of the forum for asking this question. Most people in the general section don't care about modding their car beyond wheels, tires, and lowering springs.
I'd say don't listen to anyone here and do what you want. Believe me, it will be a rewarding experience. You will learn a lot just by trying to mod and the fun factor will shoot up, especially if it's a dd, might as well make the most of it.
And yes, I'm boosted and it's fun beating higher performers off the line. That's why I bought the car, to have fun.
Anyways, to reach your goals, I'd advise supercharging rather than turbo charging. It's by far cheaper. Most kits run less than $5k. Get your supporting mods like headers, front pipe, over pipe and exhaust. You will need a flex fuel kit to run E85 and a tune along with larger injectors and a new fuel pump. I'd also advise getting an M85 differential from a Lexus IS300, that will make a huge difference. All of this will get you up to 310whp which is really quick for a light car.
All of this will run you about $10k. A bit pricey, but worth it. lol
