Post magnaflow exhaust installed

hey guys,

i just had my magnaflow exhaust installed and it gave it a much better sound and some added quickness. i have gibson headers, air raid intake, and granitelli mass air sensor. one question, will adding a tuned superchip give me any more power. my buddy with a 99 jeep cherokee still beats me off the line.

Thumbs up

I'd say yes, chip it. Can't say you'll beat your buddy off the line but remember how much weight you're trying to launch. Although not from a dead stop, I managed to chew on an Audi TT from about 5-10 miles an hour. I'm not sure the Audi was expecting that and was a little embarresed as he was driving down the road, behind me.

I'd post on Computer Chips and/or look for Mike Troyer's replies and call him. With the MAF will probably recommend a custome programmed chip to compensate for it.

Just curious, did you get any benefit from the new MAF? Most feedback claims that they are only a benefit when several other mods have been done but maybe not worth the $$; maybe not the best bang for the buck. I'm curious because I've got "modmyExpy" fever.

Hellwig goes on this weekend.....
