Not to be rude but my Trailblazer SS is faster stock.

I watched a dude make 240 to the wheels in one... they are not very fast at all, but if you like it go for it. Just don't think its going to be fast without Boost!

You will not make a lot of power off of standard bolt ons. The VQ motor craves boost.

I had the same motor in the G35 tuned differently but still didn't make a lot of power with bolt ons.

A good start though
CAI
plenum spacer
De cat that bitch
Exhaust
Headers
UD pulleys


then cheat and go nitrous

or go the right way and boost it.

I drove one and didn't really like it. It felt too big and had too many blind spots.

2003 for $18k seems like a lot. How much better are they doing than that?

EDIT: Yup. Check this one out: https://www.vadriven.com/forums/showthread.php?t=214932

Corey is right, 18 grand is a pretty high price for an 03. it better have really low miles for that price, and be about as immaculate as a brand new one. I also agree with that "not so fast" comments. They look pretty good though...so if you are getting it to score some booty, go for it! GL with your decision, let us know what you do.
