so far from what i read, available performance upgrades are limited but we're able to get a Cold Air Inductions CAI, Hurst STS, headers are unavailable, a V-MAX Black Ice-olator (not sure), supposedly a ported throttle body is in the works, and MACE is working on cam's for the LLT and once they have that on lock they said they'll start working on cam for the LFX, with the LFX motor being so new and different the market has yet to be touched
i predict it'll be closer to 2013 till we start getting good mods |
I am curious to know what is available as well. My 2012 should be in this weekend barring any further delays. I would like to see what I can start doing on this.

Cold Air Induction's cold air intake Rotofab's cold air intake Injen short ram cold air intake Short Throw Shifters available: Hurst MGW Barton Headers are obviously not "available" because there's no such thin on a 2012 LFX engine. :headbang: The VMAX Ice-olator is NOT compatible with the LFX because the LFX runners do not match with the LLT runners. |
Seems from what I've heard the Black ICE-olater would probably have no affect being that the IM is already plastic on the LFX motor vs metal on the LLT. Headers are not an option on the LFX and I do know Tracy is or has been working on the TB which I've been hearing is coming soon.
As already said, aftermarket exhaust, and CAI are available and Vararam is doing R&D on a intake for the LFX being that there is a design difference between the two motors. If I were want to get a CAI I would personally wait for the VR but that's me. If its anything like what is available to the LLT, its a killer CAI! I know I spent a lot of money in the early stages having a 'I want or have to have it now' mentality. Had I waited just a little longer in mods in certain areas I feel I could have had the best and not been in a position of trying to sell to get some of my money back on previous mods. I think if I had a LFX I'd be looking exhaust first, then the TB, if you have a manual shift, a short throw shifter and almost forgot the Trifecta tune. I'd look to BNR Bad News Racing to see if its available for your car. It'll be the best money spent for a performance adder. |

I read in another thread that the an engine tune on a stock manual v6, or even one with an aftermarket exhaust and cai, is not that noticeable. Is this really the case?

I was referring to the above thread, where a couple people seemed to be saying that the power gains from a tune on a v6 with relatively few mods are fairly minimal, so I was wondering if people thought the same thing for the new LFX models or not. |
ohhh I gotcha ummm I am not to experinced and not very knowledgeable but I think its relatively the same but still better but wait for someone who has more knowledge on the subject to respond
|
For a manual transmissioned car, I wouldn't put a tune very high on my list.
