2005 Monte Carlo LS

[smokeymacpott]

Hello family, i was wonder if anyone out there could let me know where i can go to get performance parts for my 2005 Monte Carlo LS. I thought because this car wins alot of nascar events that there would be LOTS of aftermarket stuff, but boy was i wrong, i can't find anything. I know i should have went with the SS but it was alot more money! And let me tell you how pissed i was to find out 06 is coming with an v-8. So please someone let me know what i can do. I have 20inch rims nd nothing else, i plan on putting some dual exhuast and a K&N filter, but i was wonder if there was anything else out there? Like Headers, Chip, throttle Bodies, cold air intake just the basic bolt on's. i don't want to do anything MAJOR!

05 LS is the 3400 with a t65 trans. 2.87 FDR

First thing I would get is a DHP (digital horse power) programmer. Then you can tune it, scan the computer, and adjust for any mods you do. We have some parts on the store here (link at the top of each page). I was hoping to hear back from DHP about becoming a reseller for their tuner but I haven't heard anything yet.

yeah it is an LS with the 3.4 it has loads of TQ but no Top end horse power, I am looking into the chip thing to see if that will give me the extra power i want.

its not a chip, you are actually re-programming your engine computer. It works wonders to help out your topend but there are some other small bolt ons you may want to consider to open up the top end better as well.

U-Bend Delete
PCM Tune
3500 Upper Intake Swap
Headers

What is U-Bend Delete? PCM Tune? 3500 Upper Intake Swap? I think PCM tune is re progamming and Intake swap makes since but what is a 3500? I was thinking of just getting a K&N. Anyway thanks for all the help. I hope to get some pic up on this site SOON.
