Ridgeracer Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 Don't go stage 2. It's a waste of time. Just go to a slightly bigger snail....i.e. stage 3. "Gimme mines Balboa...Gimme mines".....Clubber Lang - Mr. T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tommypenguin Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 I blame this site for almost all of my mods, I would never have been educated enough to feel comfortable modding my car without this site. Now look at me.... I managed to go a full year of ownership w/o any performance mods, during that time I visited this website only a handful of times. Once I became a lot more active on here I went from stage 0 to stage 2 in a matter of a couple months, I just can't resist, I will be at stage 3 by next month. Thank you legacygt.com for all the great ideas on how to make my car more fun;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was eyein that DP yesterday now that I learned CT emissions cant sniff test our AWD cars Im very tempted to gut that sucker soon as I get money together for an AP I too love to mod. I have a hard time leaving stuff "stock" cause it's the same as what everyone else has lol. I like to be unique. So far I have spotted 4 LGT's here and ALL of them are bone stock and ALL of them are driven by women so I have to do SOMETHING to stand out to represent the men! Lucky for me when I got my LGT the tint and shorty shifter were already taken care of, so I got my grille on the way, got all the stuff to do my headlights now just need to get the courage to DO IT lol, tail lights getting tinted, wheels and springs soon-ish, and AccessPORT in May to go Stage I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AKLGT Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 bah! I was gonna have to get the BAN stick out! I love this site because it helped me learn HOW to mod the car because I knew (as well as my husband) there was no way I wasn't going to mod it! So this site helped me figure out the best route to go so I didn't screw up the car. I waited about 10 months before going Stage 1, then 2 weeks after to stage 2.... and then 7 months later for Stage 3..... Wiggle wiggle wiggle wiggle wiggle yeah!!!

I know gutting requires a long screwdriver but is it dangerous on the UP as opposed to the DP? How much do you gain by doing the UP could you still go "Stg II" leaving the stock UP un-gutted and in there if you gut the DP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much do you gain by doing the UP could you still go "Stg II" leaving the stock UP un-gutted and in there if you gut the DP gutting the UP is a PITA. I did mine. I'd recommend finding an inexpensive gutted UP that's FS. and you want to make sure your UP is catless before you go stg 2. MINIMUM stg 2 is catless UP and DP or highflow DP.
