some help please for a new guy..

Post by SirMoosealot13 »

Hi all, im new to this forum, in fact this is post #1 for me...i actually stumbled upon it accidently wihle searching for parts for my new 2005 vibe, which leads me to my question....where the heck can one find parts? when i purchased this car i was under the impression that since its basically a Matrix that aftermarket parts were just as easily accessible, boy was i wrong. Like i said, i have a 2005 AWD and am desparatly seeking performance parts...as im sure you all know the paltry 123 horses is well, for lack of a better word, poopie! I was willing to sacrifice the HP initially due to the AWD thinking i could make a few mods and gain that HP this car needs. With that said, would someone please enlighten me as to where i may find the following... cold air intake, complete exhaust including headers (nothing too buzzy, im into a more deep throaty sound, ie borla or gibson) and possibly a new computer chip? any help or enlightenment would be much obliged... thanks from your newest member TOM

Welcome and yes I came across this site while looking for parts to.I don't have any links to performance parts but I know there are a lot of members including myself with CAI (I didn't buy mine online though) and lots of members have exhaust systems, I'm sure there are sites around, did you look in forum with all the links? Must be a few in there.Welcome aboard and you must show pics, rule # 1

Hey, Welcome to the forums. With that said. For performance mods, here are a couple of sites:http://neverenuf.com/index.cfm...id=74That site has the best all around prices.I bought my CAI from:http://www.ultrarev.comIt ran me about $225 for the polished black.About that complete exhaust system, there is not an exhaust syatem made for the AWD as of yet. Everyone that has one on the forum has their's customized. Ask DrunkenVibe and I think steves76. I think they both have exhausts on theirs. IF you want some cool decals:http://www.grafxwerks.com/prod...VIBA1Some other sites include:http://www.perfomancecenter.comhttp://w ... ing.comYou could try ebay.
