Default RS Barn Stage 1 chip for sale.

I bought this new - ? 18 months ago?

Great shape - still have factory box. I think they sell on website for 179.00 + shipping (assume they charge shipping).

I can go 130 shipped or 135 shipped if you do paypal (I think they charge me fee's).

I don't have to sell - as tiny chance I could go back to it.




Reason for sale is upgrade to headers and Stage II chip (Great upgrade BTW!!!)

Which headers did you end up going with? I assume the ones RS Barn sells...

Yeah - RS Barn, 1 3/4 headers. They sell two sizes. I want to keep some torque in there - this is street, not a max high-RPM deal. So - went with smaller primaries. Pete threw in a test pipe for a discount. I have a 3" cat back that was on the car. Pete is super helpful. The stainless headers are a work of art. Welds are beautiful. NIce thick flange. I pulled the top row of studs - looks clean. That and stage II chip. The new chip is very streetable. One of best things - is that he had them to me in like, 2-3 weeks.

Sounds great - maybe a bit of rasp at 2800-2900 RPM. At low RPM's - there is no hesitation or stumble. Clearly, the real seat of the pants pull improvement is from 4000-6000RPM. I don't have dyno sheets - Pete has those on his site. Stabbing the throttle and rowing through gears sounds great. Not overly loud at all at cruise speeds/RPMs. Very happy with it.

I will say this - pulling off the factory exhaust, 4 into 2 into one, is pretty well made - just looking at it. Pete said the factory cat flows well, but removed that too for test pipe. I grew up w/ a 442 and Trans Am's - putting headers on is just what you do.... but, I am impressed w/ the factory unit it looks high flow.
