my question is about Stealth's tuning... what is done and with what mods is it neccessary?   | What is your end goal from the tuning process? A slight massage to better match the tune to your current mods? A complete overhaul for maximum optimization? To have the best hp/tq numbers ever on the forum?

nos, blower, turbo all do the same thing.... ad compression. nos is just not as safe as the others. 150 hp from a blower is the same 150 hp from nos.
as for the bolt ons if these car pick up like the Z06, then exhaust with headers should be good for 50 wheel hp.. Also a intake couldnt hurt. more air in more air out. As with the comptuers / programmers they usualy pick up about 20 wheel hp. Dont hold me to this as i have none of the listed above parts. |

Easy - headers and a tune to polish it off. |

This will cause me to buy new CATS and cut the Corsa short... is that right?! I thought that is what i was told when i bought the car... i am sure things could have changed since then.
How would i go about a tune by you Stealth? I am in NY.
what do you think my outcome can be? |

The BB's everyone got the group buy on are 'shorties' and include the stumpy little Cats on the end, and bolt directly to the stock exhaust location, so you could use it with a stocker, corsa or BB.

Does stealthv offer headers and cats to fit the corsa? As far as I understand DTE stage III is the only easy way to get it all to fit. But I'm sure if you could find the headers and cats and the lead peice and got all that put on seperatly then stealthv could do a tune. To me it will be easier to just buy the DTE stage III cuzz it comes with everything!:coolgleam JMHO |
