honestly my thinking is i need to call my tuner. i may just got exhaust and intakes but idk where the stock injectors max out on these. they're only like 650cc or 700cc stock.

just get some sound going.....then i know i'll want more then switch the fueling up and change over to speed density etc...

well my secondary hold up is i found a guy in PA who makes a very good looking GTR exhaust for a very nice price. however his prototype required some cutting of the rear diffuser. told him work that out first lol

Unsure what the OE drivetrain can withstand; but this kit would be a great start

to be honest, i love AMS but their stuff is all overpriced.

i will be doing the same but for less.

downpipes i want are 969
rest of the exhaust is 2k from this guy once he changes his design a touch lol
intakes 300-500 depending on if i buy used or new.
speed density kit since i believe my tuner prefers it.
already bought my tune/ecutek

now if i do fuel;
injectors 1k
fuel pumps 300/400
flex fuel kit id buy used since theyre 700 new and it's literally a couple line, wires, and a $90 GM sensor.

OEM threshold is about 650wtq for engine and tranny. passed that you get bent rods and clutch slippage.

Since you are not going to recover the money spent, go lease a Tesla Model S P100D and get your speed/ acceleration fix. and invest the rest. You can enjoy more time with the GTR on the road after that.

Let the flaming begin VVVVV
