no prob, dont expect to be making much power NA with any bolt ons... even with a fully done head, intake mani, management and pro tune and even high comp pistons if u do go that far.. if u crack 200whp id be suprised.. just go for looks, get some raceland coilovers for 300 bucks, and some sick wheels!

Fixed it for you. Chevy, we have 9:5.1 (2005-2006), 9:6.1 (2007+) compression. That does not make for a great N/A car with bolt-ons. You will have to drop in higher compression pistons to make a great N/A car. And if you are going to spend that much coin, you could have saved yourself the hassle and went turbo and pushed 350whp at the flick of a switch and still use the stock motor.

All that would be well over 200whp. I don't doubt that one. But still a waste, as you will be pretty much tapped out N/A and 200whp is not a lot for this car. Only thing left after that would be to put some squeeze on it. 100 shot at minimal.
