Just got a '99 Regal LSE

[RTCarlin]

Wasn't sure where to put this, figured this was closest. I just bought my wife a '99 Regal LSE. Has everything the GS does except the SC... (bummer, I know). The car's great, only 40k miles, perfect black paint. Finding the car was easy... Getting a <25 year old woman to talk herself into it was tricky! All I can say is, thank god for lots of buttons on the climate controls. After many objections from her ("I'm not driving something called a 'Buick'", etc). Once she sat in it and saw all the "pretty buttons and lights" she fell in love.

Just wondering if there were any tips and tricks to get the most out of it. Intake, exhaust, etc... Anything aside from swapping motors and such. Thanks in advance!

Hey, Ron, good purchase (other than the lack of SC ). Believe it or not, there is a forum dedicated to the 97.5+ Regals. Come visit us at www.regalgs.org.

Jason... Found it last night and it's been a great source. I spent the better part of 4 hours just reading through old posts!

First up is gutting the airbox, a drop in filter, and doing away with the U-Bend and Resonator...

Then there's the M90 kit from ZZP.... ahh... I need to get the GN back to the track before dropping money into this one. But its nice to know that there's some cheap options for getting some extra horsies outa the '99. Heck... Who knows, I might be running the LSE at Bowling Green next year instead of the GN!
