is a power programmer a good investment or not? and if it is where can i get one for a 93 TA and for how much?

Terrible investment. For the LT1 some cars even lose power with them. Definitely won't be able to compensate for major mods.

Save your money for a custom tune.

thats what i needed thanks

 

[Chris 96 WS6]

Yeah its just a generic tune that Hypertech did based on a stock LT1. They lean the fuel out and increase WOT timing, and a lot of LT1 cars knock with a Hypertech tune because of that.

Plus the hypertech does NOTHING for part throttle, so with big mods its not going to be able to cope. Custom tune is the only way to go for anything wilder than cai and catback IMO.

ok, any suggestions on a good cat back system? i want one with a unique, loud sound too.

 

[Chris 96 WS6]

Check the board FAQ, there's an article in there on cat backs. Basically they are all going to give you about the same hp increase...so its your choice based on sound.

Anything but Flowmaster, put it that way.

 

[ihaterice]

what?? not flowmaster? thats what i was about to buy, their american thunder system

No anything but random tech. I havent heard something as gay as random tech catback since well....flowmaster but still... :lol:

 

[Chris 96 WS6]

Flowmaster mufflers don't flow very well. Sophisticated enthusiasts don't buy flowmaster
