cleaning up air flow in and out

[Hdfilmmaker]

I'm thinking I need to clean up the intake and exhaust on my 2000 Gen 2.5. Any suggestions where to start?

Start with a new air filter.... If you do a bit of searching/reading you will discover nobody makes a direct fit exhaust upgrade for the Monty, only options are custom setups installed by yourself or a local $hop.

Air filter, throttle body cleaning, maybe some Seafoam treatment if you're so inclined. I don't think messing with the exhaust will do much. Most factory setups are already tuned for best torque at low to mid range so there's no need to go bigger.

Just make sure you use sensor safe throttle body cleaner.

I usually just use CRC brand MAF sensor cleaner for the entire top end. The throttle body/ intake cleaner should be fine to use as far as O2 sensors go, but the MAF cleaner is not as harsh. It works as an electrical contact cleaner as well.

I have used the CRC as well without issue.
