I'll probably spring for an LS in a couple of months. I'd love an SS, but I've got student loans.

really headers would only give you around the same amount of power as a stock LFX.... add on a CAI and it'll be more than yours. You'd probably be better off just doing a little head work on a LFX which would probably cost around the same as headers and give more of a boost

i'm in the v6 section all the time. lol and yes, i heard the rumors. I take those with a grain of salt. lol

i think tracy (sc2150) is working on something.

323hp from the lfx. 312 from the llt. you get more than 12hp from long tube headers.

TT feeding a maggie . I've driven a 2010 with a maggie, cam, headers etc...... still can't find the words to describe it..... starting off in 3rd gear and not even touching the gas just shows how much torque it has
