Alright, my birthday is coming up (July 2nd) and my parents have decided to be really cool and get me something for the Camaro. It's a 94 V6, it's already got ground fx, a nice spoiler, and a nice (but bent) hood. Now while I can't milk them for $600 bucks, I can probably get them to throw in $200. I have about $200 to spend myself, so we're looking in the $400 range. I was thinking about something more internal, but currently, I know jack about engines. I do have a mechanic friend who has been more than helpful with the car so far, so it's not a problem of installing the part, just a matter of knowing what the hell it is, lol.
Alright, so, time to restate the question for those of you that are either confused, or didn't feel like reading the above.

I have $400 for a car upgrade. What do I get?

I was thinking of this exhaust, since it's easy to install and my exhaust is pretty crappy looking.

Also, I could probably use new brake pads and calipers. And of course, I'd love to do something to the engine, as it seems to be completely stock



Well, looking forward to all your suggestions!

get a magnaflow, flowmaster or slp loud mouth cat-back exhaust then get a cold air intake or somethin to make it flow more in and out

You know arch... I can't tell...

Either you mean that you agree, even though the above poster is stupid, or you mean that the above poster is stupid and you sarcastically agree

You kids and your emoticons...

get the magnaflow catback and a cai, that rksport rear section is way too overpriced considering ur not getting a full catback

archemedes

I agree with him (who's a kid I'm older than dirt)

Oh, when I decide to throw sound in, I'm goin straight to arch. Seems cool, always helpful with my threads, and gonna be living about an hour from me in not too long.

So right now I belive I'll end up getting the Magnaflow exhaust. It comes highly reccommended, and seems not too terribly hard to put on. Sounds pretty good too. I'm seeing them at $398. If that's too high or anything, let me know. Next purchase after that will be the cold air intakes, and then, assuming everthing is working right, it'll be on to sound!

Oh yeah, arch, I call everyone kids, even though I'm sure I'm not older than many people on the forum. It's just a thing I do

archemedes

don't be afraid to build a cai either, it can flow better than many off the shelf ones that are designed to look pretty

When I had my 3.4 I bought everything from Josh. He's a great guy to deal with.

he does have just about every V6 thing you could want and yes his prices are awsome.

Here you go a exhaust sound base. http://www.fullthrottlev6.com/forums..._soundclips_db

Sweet, that site's about $50 cheaper than the prices I was seeing. I'm very excited about getting some new exhaust up on there. As for making my own CAI, I've got nothing but time on my hands right now, so I'll definately give that a shot. I found a few walkthroughs that seemed pretty nice. Worst case scenario, I fail and keep using stock parts

Thanks much guys.
