at the moment just exterior mods really roush 17*8 (front) 17*10 (rear) rims, abc exc. front valance, saleen hood, roush rear valance, sidepiped, steeda wing, freshly painted dark ass taboo red and a few changes under the hood havent put much money into the performance yet just got the exterior done damn it looks sweet but not nearly enough punch yet. i have a K&N, diablo 3 stage chip and flowmasters small stuff not gonna supercharge or put on heads on this motor gonna drop in a 351w when i accumulate enough money but right now im in the process of und. pulleys and want the h pipes just puttin on the mods worth my while and low cost with this stock engine and that will still be beneficial when i get my new motor ill prolly throw a shot of nitrous in there right before it goes in fer the engine swap i think ill put on some better injectors and fuel pump i just wanna be able to smoke these fools in the later model camaros before i get my 351 cuz after that it will be no contest

Have you done the PI heads swap yet? That would net you a good hp gain for your 96.

Can't vouch for anything speed related but I will say one thing...My o/r H is the best thing I've done to my car so far. The sound is incredible. I noticed slight gain in power but can't give you any numbers. For the $200 I payed in total for mine I think it was well worth it.

I would recommend find a motor from a 99+gt and put it deppending on the milage
but to ans your ? you wont lose top-end
wheN I had my 99gt stock and I added my x-pipe the car would pull more in top end

F.Y.I. you dont lose tope end with an off road pipe, if anything you will lose a little low end torque via the no cats equals not alot of back pressure.

Nobody seems to be asking the obvious question, is this a daily driver or a dedicated race car? Because you shouldn't be driving around in a car with no cats. California air quality is fucked up enough as it is.

Replacing your 4-banger with a V-8 prolly does'nt help our air too much either J/K.
