If you can afford an SS and have the money for a CAI, LT headers, catback and a tune...do you really care what the fuel economy is? lol

What's this thing sound like?

Put some Royal Purple in the trans and differential and see what affect that has on the numbers.

if you keep you foot out of it and stop listening to how great it sounds lol and just drive normally they will help a lil, probably around 2-4 mpg's

How about a CAI and exhaust without a tune...what would be the power gain roughly?

I don't think this car needs an exhaust, probably only mufflers. The Cobra guys all run 2.5" exhaust untill about 600-650 rwhp. The stock exhaust on the camaro looks pretty good with it's smooth bends. I would just change the mufflers and remove the resonators (i think they are resonators) near the differential.

sweet!! this LS3 responds very well to mods... i'm thinking after the engine has broken in a bit, u might see another 10hp

GMtothecore · 05-08-2009, 05:08 AM

Ya, I plan on CAI, SLP headers, flowmaster super 44s, and call it good for a while

jeffny09 · 05-08-2009, 05:28 AM

I for one would like to see what it looks like!

Its going to be a really exciting year
The learning curve on performance accessories for the camaro should be pretty short given the heritage of the LS3 and it looks like we will be spoiled for choice for options on everything from simple bolts ons to superchargers.

It will be great to see how Camaro5 evolves as it goes from folks looking forward to their new cars to sharing information on their experiences on accessories, performance tunes etc - thats where the community should really take off

Cost for the CAI ???

levi1922 · 05-08-2009, 07:43 AM

Well I was thinking that If the catalytic converters, resonators come out and add headers and a high performance muffler that would open up flow quite a bit?
