Bottom line is it's paid off and it suits my needs. Can't complain.

Engine/Trans Performance Tune
Parts Cost: $500.00 | Install Cost: $0.00 | Rating: 5/5
Notes: Price is for the HPTuners interface suite. I wrote the tune myself. My own testing showed about 15 whp and wtq improvement over the stock tune. Ran 14.7 @ 96 mph stock, now runs 14.36 @ 98. In short: better shifts, more power, 7000 rpm redline.Added: May 20, 2015
Performance Intake
Amsoil cone intake
Parts Cost: $120.00 | Install Cost: $0.00 | Rating: 4/5
Notes: No aftermarket intake options so I designed one myself with a mandrill bent aluminum pipe and a dry performance cone filter. Mainly for sound, but also top end power beyond 6000 rpm.Added: May 20, 2015
Strut Tower Brace
STB from the 06-07 Malibu SS
Parts Cost: $130.00 | Install Cost: $0.00 | Rating: 3/5
Notes: Not a huge difference in handling, but more of a cherry on top of the Epsilon chassis' nice ride/handling balance. Tightens body control, reduces bump steer.Added: May 20, 2015
Price: 0.00
2LT trim w/V6 Package. My daily driver. It's no performance car, but it's got a good motor and it drives very well. It's lightly modded and runs low/mid 14s.
