Clay Smith "Mr.Horsepower" Sonic

[Lundskow738]

Hey everyone, I'm new to the forum. I'm signing paperwork for my Black LT Chevy Sonic Hatchback 1.4L Auto very shortly. I have plans to theme it with "Mr.Horsepower". My dad had a 1970 black Chevy Impala he drag raced back in the day, his theme was also "Mr. Horsepower." So far my plans for my Sonic are...
1. tinted windows
2. smoked tail lights
3. smoked head lights
4. upgrade to Sparco Assetto Gara Black 17" rims, but in the meantime just plastidip my 16" stock wheels black.
5. System (2 12" subs, enclosed box, amp, and eventually new speakers and possibly new dash)
6. Red painted bowties
7. Red or yellow break calipers
8. ALL AND ANY chrome GONE!
9. Trifeca Tune
10. Injen Wrinkle Red Cold Air Intake
11. All the "Mr.Horsepower" accessories

If you all have any ideas or opinions that will be helpful with my transformation that would be great. I'm open to hear all of you opinions and questions.

Thanks
Sav

welcome!
where is the hp part to your build?

I'm not really sure yet, that's why I posted for opinions. I'm newly researching all the things you all do to your Sonics to get some ideas. I'll gladly take any ideas anyone has to offer!

 

[d.p]

best bet for now would be intake exhaust and tune... maybe bigger injectors

He has a Trifecta tune on the list, if that's not a horse power modification (at 30+ hp and torque) I don't know what is.

Sorry about that. I'm guessing that the "Mr. Horsepower" items are to make it look like your dad's old car?

 

[SSpeckerwood]

next would be tune, exhaust, intake, solid motor mount, DDMworks shifter bushings, intercooler shroud, catless down pipe

Yep, you got it. It is his signature logo for all of his vehicles.

1st horse power mod you'll need is to post a pic of yourself on the forum.


next would be tune, exhaust, intake, solid motor mount, DDMworks shifter bushings, intercooler shroud, catless down pipe, and once again a picture.

I'll be sure to post a picture, I will either be signing the papers tomorrow or I'll have to wait till after July 2nd to pick it up. Ill be on vacation
