HI y'all, new to the forum, but was wondering...I have a GT (03) turbo
and i put a k&n filter in it. what else can i do to get more horsepower/speed out of it? is the stage one worth it? maybe i should do the dual exhaust?? [8)]

oh gee, where should we start?[}
 ]Depends what you are willing to do, how much you are willing to spend, and how much your warranty means to you. Mopar Stage kits Down pipes Cat back exhaust MBC (Boost Controller) Pipes (hard) IC sprayer, etc. Do a quick search. The easiest way to juice your ride and improve existing performance without modifying the look or sound of the car is get the Stage 1 upgrade. Second is pull the big white and the black silencers out of your airbox. The Stage kit is 4 injectors and a reprogrammed PCM with more aggressive programming for improved performance. For 03's it bumps HP from 215 to about 235-240hp and a bump in torque also. Anyone else? If you get Stage 1, get it from tthrift.
