Hey guys im wanting to add some hp to the new camaro i bought. 2000 z28 already has magnaflow exhaust on it.
for sure im adding a cai to it, looking about getting some new headers, any know any preferably cheaper but not nonesense mods to add to the car

 

Airbox lid is an easy 5 hp or so. I am surpised you have an exhaust with a stock lid still. Plus, you can do the cutout ender the lid to get a little more airflow.

I always liked the SLP lid for durability. There are a thousand different brands out there, and the cheap ebay ones can crack pretty easily sometimes. My last SLP went years without issues.

yeah, i think i know what your talking about the black box at the front of the engine right. im not the best with cars i know a little im a computer geek not so much a car geek lol\

did a search http://marylandspeed.com/slp-flowpac...047-p-247.html

is what i was looking at for my first upgrade

 

Pacesetter 1 3/4" Headers / ORY after you get a lid. Excellent HP for the $$$.

If it's an automatic get a SS3600 torque converter at a minimum, PT4000 if you plan to go with a cam soon.

Gears are a nice help, but I'd only do it if you can do it yourself. The parts are cheap, but labor is not. Unless you have a 2.73 car then get rid of those ASAP. 3.73 for A4, 4.10 for M6.

Next up would be a cam or a small shot of N20 depending on what you are comfortable with or want...

 

That is the one! Cold air kit is nice too. The lid is the big value though.

I have an 2000 SLP SS and I changed the exhaust to a SLP loudmouth 2, replaced the airbox and used a better air filter. I also added lower control arms, sub frame connectors and panhard bars as well as a new torque bar. I also added a cross brace under my hood. I left the motor stock and the car handles and moves great I cut about 3/4 of a second in my 1/4 mile time.
