That would be the GM Stage 1 kit. Its about 289 HP according to most dyno sheets i've seen. If your wanting to stay in warranty thats the only tune you can do. So go for it.

Welcome to the site btw. Get some pics up. What color BTW?

Airbox mod and a muffler delete are 2 easy mods to get done and are worth the effort and dollars spent. If u want more details on the airbox mod I can pm u the link to the DIY I used, very happy with it and the muffler delete sounded awesome

What does RJT stand for?

I have several muffler delete clips but FYI there is ZERO sound clips available that do ANY justice to how it sounds in person. It's not ricey at all, I was always complemented on it. It's not loud if you stay off the throttle and it's within any decibel sound limitation laws.

Your clips actually sound pretty mellow , I found a u-tube of the 3 inch Hahn muffler delete that sounds real good for a four lunger...could hear the turbo spool up out the tail pipe....pretty impressive.
I would guess you have no drone ????

The muffler and resonator are restrictive , on a turbocharged engine back pressure is a horse power killer ,with that said , a larger diameter exhaust pipe and the header can add torque,hp and SOTP effect as well as a huge grin across the drivers face.:banana-mario:

with the SS/TC LNF the 3inch exhaust upgrade is very useful with a tune, without the tune it's all noise and u'd may as well do a muffler delete, but I have a feeling you'll be tuning yours up :) can't wait to see what you do for it.
