Re: need some suggestions on performance and looks cat.
The hood will have to be fully custom. Nobody makes parts like those for our cars.
Also, K&N doesn't make an "Airkit" for our cars. Go with a FWI from intense.
The exhaust is also not going to get you much(if any) performance, it's only for sound.
Go with a PCM and FWI. that should get you headed in the right direction.

Re: need some suggestions on performance and looks cat.
3 inches is as big as you want to go for the main pipes. You could do a 3" Exhaust and 3.5" tips, but that's overkill, IMHO. Hood is going to either be custom made by cutting up the old one, or spending a lot to have a custom fiberglass hood made. I agree, get an Intense FWI. It has a K&N Filter, and flows great. K&N doesn't make a CAI for our cars like they do on the Grand Prix's and other more mainstream cars.Da713Bonneville wrote:i want to just give my bville a little more thump to it like :

Re: need some suggestions on performance and looks cat.
MY thought is that if you run a single 3" pipe on that engine, since it's N/A, you are going to have even less torque than you do now. I'm skeptical you could even move enough air at full tilt boogie to need a single 3". This is assuming you'd run the full exhaust.
I have a Bonneville, it's white and N/A!
