I'll agree on the KKM and Y-pipe for sure.

Try a B&M short shifter on another CEG'ers car before you buy. I found it to be too far of a reach, where the standard shifter is a perfect fit. The short shifter is better for shorter people (I'm 6'2")

Resonator removal, or replacement is another good one. I prefer not having it at all, others find it too boomy. This is assuming a full exhaust it too rich for your blood.

Get the heat shield from John Miks if you get a KKM, it helps sound, and in your climate, the heat underhood is an issue.

Other than that, my mods are mostly handling, audio, and pure cosmetic (though every SVT should have had an engine badge on the dash from the factory).


You can pillage an enemy once, but a customer is an endless resource.
