not from ny, but there is some really good info here, so welcome, and learn as much as you can! Some of these guys have been around since the start when 3.4 pulleys with no supporting mods were the norm! 10-15* of knock gone undetected with lack of scanners lol, a lot has changed and these guys know their sh*t! Without this site i would still be running 9* of knock lol, now i'm proud to be kr free!

I think you meant SLP. When you get ready to make a purchase, post up again. There are some things you can do before a couple of those exhaust mods you listed. Welcome btw.
