New to the forum, just got a 1999 Z28

I love the car, super clean with 50,000 miles. BONE STOCK and I am looking at little upgrades here and there as I know there are a bunch of them!!!

Where is a good place to start? I am sure there are hundreds of threads on the subject and hate to start a redundent one but I will start slow and see where it goes. The car is so nice I hate to molest it but need to smoke a couple of my buddies mustangs!!!

Thanks.

I have nothing to offer in regards to any mods (see signature), but welcome to the addiction!

A stock LS1 will smoke almost any stang, besides the Roush and Cobra. But for starters, a lid and catback exhaust are always good.

No Appearance Mod will make you faster - except for stickers of course.










Just to let you know, you posted this in the wrong section. But as far as LS1 mods go, I can't help you much.

That's not true. You can always remove your entire interior, change the appearance, and devalue your car in the process.

No, no, no. I said no appearance mod, those are de-appearance mods.

But to the OP, I've always heard long tubes really wake up an LS1. So that mite be a good place to start. I'm sure the LS1 Engine portion of this site will have all the answers you need.

Agreed.

If being faster doesn't work, making fun of their cars for being uglier always seems to work.

No worries. Just throw up some pictures and turn it into an appearance thread.

I've always loved Red Camaro's. Both of the ones I have owned were Red.
