New Member Saying Hi!

My name is Matt and I somewhat recently bought a pearl white 2014 Regal GS. Unfortunately, I'm feeling slightly disappointed because the '13's have so many more mod options unless I am missing something. I really would love to find an exhaust that makes my GS sound like it has a bigger engine than it does lol. I HATE how it sounds stock. Also, just in general, what mods are available in case I am missing something. I did see that it seems to be best to go with a BNR tune. Any help is much appreciated! 😀

Nice to meet you all!

Welcome.
Not much is available for the 14's. You can do the Injen Intake from the Malibu and the zzp o2 Housing if its FWD.

you can also get a Tune (i'd recommend BNR)

As for exhaust nobody makes an exhaust for the GS regardless of year. its already got a pretty healthy flowing 3" mandrel bent exhaust. Some of us that have done exhaust work delete the mufflers or Replace them with other mufflers that we weld in. some people have also gone and cute the mufflers off and replaced the resonator with a muffler like a Borla XR-1 ( https://www.amazon.com/Borla-40944-...coding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=8K14XSEYNJS3DFE5ZGJ2 )

Dang... Okay. Thanks for the info! I appreciate it! Does anyone know if there are any mods in the works, or is this just one of those platforms that won't get touched? 🙁

Unfortunately, the 2014-2017 GS's do not have the high flow 3" system that was available on the 2012-2013 model years. They have a 2.5" exhaust.

Ugh. WTF GM.

On ZZP's website, they list the bigger O2 housing but no downpipe. It says "coming soon."

When I bought my GS I thought I would be getting a similar aftermarket to the 11-13s, but come to find out apparently nobody makes anything for FWD LTGs.

I emailed ZZP about an LTG downpipe and this was their response:

"Unfortunately, I do not have an ETA on that product, but I will make sure it is on the fabrication departments list to get going! "

Awesome! Thanks for the info! I'm glad I'm not the only one in this boat! lol.
