you might as well do a full exhaust if you have a header. and if you havnt heard of this:LN5 IM
ive seen a dyno sheet with a much improved top end.



Listen F***ers. FASTERTHANAHONDA is a joke because I WORK FOR HONDA. I'll talk @!#$ about Fords to, that doesn't mean I can beat a 12 second mustang.

definately start with the basics first.....ie aem intake.....maybe some plugs and wires......but most importantly make sure your cavi is running in good stock condition before u do anything....that will give u a good base to build off of. id wait to invest in an exhaust until u really know what your going to be dealing with and wanting to get into....this is because you may start off with an upgraded exhaust and then later on have to go to a bigger piping size......an exhaust really isnt going to do much for you yet anyways.

LN5 IM starts at an 05 to 07 motor. Why would it not fit an 04?

I also have an 04 looking to help it beat the hondas and such.

This is also my 120 mile a day work car so no turbo going on mine but I want more zip.

2004 ecotec 5 speed. Injen intake,better plugs and wires. Just lowered it and added a wing.

exhaust would too help, alot, best mod to do after an intake. especially since he has a header, run some 2.25" prolly. if you got the LE5 intake mani make sure you get hptuners. in order to gain anything from the mani you need to tune really for our cars.

I head that Trifecta was going to make a tune for the 04's and the intake swap could be on that. Are they going to do it? Though that would be more of a basic tune it could save some money for other mods.

Yeah, about that, I talked to the guy from trifecta and he said it would be ready by early april. Obviously he lied. Especially since he keeps saying that it is next on its list.

I sent him a email and he never got back to me. I'm starting to think twice about them.

I know that cobalt guys love Trifecta, but custom tune > any off the shelf crap. Find someone in your area with HTP, give them $100 for the credits, then bring beer and pizza for their time.

the intake will bolt up to any ecotec motor.

my buddy gets 400 miles to a tank w/ a turbo setup and he drives to and from school (40 miles each way).
