LDTcapitan Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Hey everyone I'm currently driving a 2008 Mercedes but because of some reasons I'm going to be selling it and I am getting a 2009 Saturn sky convertible (not sure if it's a redline) I haven't actually seen the car yet but I was wondering if someone could brief me on mods I should definitely get (tune, exhaust, etc) or point me to a saturn sky forum where I could better ask members. It's candy apple red and I can't wait to really detail the hell out of it. Thanks! Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marylander Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 I'm not sure about the modding, but enjoy that car -- I've always liked those. A side thought -- maybe keep it stock and pristine... those are rare now and may become semi-classics before not too long. Seeing one perfect and stock in 20 years would be pretty cool.

ECaulk Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 If it has the 2.0 ecotec turbocharged engine, then it will be a very fun car with simply a tune. Not sure about sky forums, although performance auto werks and zzperformance offers parts and support Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dipolley Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 I happen to have a fairly, heavily modified 08 Sky Redline. First off, don't even think of buying it if it is not a Redline edition. The performance is far superior and the gas mileage is much much better. Check out skyroadster.com for a great forum. DDMworks has great mod part available for you. And the GMPP tune is great. My mods so far: Dejon Cold air intake and IC piping. (dejon is no longer in business) Replaced blown intercooler (Called a "charged air cooler" by GM), Cone filter. Flowmaster custom exhaust. RK sport hood and body kit. GMPP tune. Relocated HKS BOV, and a few other items. And some cosmetic mods. I am running under 14 second 1/4 mile times at 5800' in altitude.

I have hptuners pro if you have a want to use a remote tuner, I'm not confident enough in my tuning abilities to tune others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
