Well I wonder who here is SoCal can get this kit close to 400rwhp with a Auto LFX?

Unless Skycraft wants to host an IPF Camaro meet so we can use is tuner shop!

I'm pretty much positive I've seen at least 2 or 3 + IPF cars get over 400rwhp. Sycraft isn't the only one.

But on the LLT your going to want LT headers as well so you can extract another 20+ HP out of the car...otherwise getting 400+ can be tough...and especially with an automatic.

For the LFX...a good tune could get you there, and I'd guess high flow cats, or no cats at all would really help a lot. You just need to be sure the HFCs can stand up to the heat of the supercharger, and the SOLOs are a bit sketchy in that area I believe.

It also has a fair amount of unobtanium in it as I recall- GREAT DEAL for anyone looking for "turn key" S/C'd V6!

I have a 2011 LLT full straight pipe exhaust, and a plenum spacer. Howard from Redline in Pompano Beach tuned me up to 428rwhp. Lots of other mods, but think those are the power parts.

Most high flow cats turn into no flow cats with the higher EGT's, We tell all our customers that aftermarket cats void our warranty. We have seen several fail causing catastrophic engine failure. IMO do not use any HFC unless your willing to come out of pocket for proper cats that are specifically made for the higher EGT of forced induction. They are not cheap.

Every wonder why factory cats are $1200 and most aftermarket are $200? The materials required for catalytic converters is expensive. Period. You cannot build a proper cat for a forced induction application for that price. the materials are too expensive.

We recommend using the OE Cats or just cat delete depending on local laws.
