Anyone have a part number for the rear diffuser? I want to swap my 2SS out with this one and change my tips to dual tips.

![]() IMO The new steering wheel looks like crap with the interior, it does not fit the rest of the styling. Plus it looks like the steering wheel in all the other GM vehicles on the market... Lame. It needs it's own styling.

Answer.. no because the old wheel was shit for anything other than going in straight-line. The new wheel is less bulky and more comfortable to use. Looks are subjective. Yes it doesn't go with the retro-fail interior but after changing the wheel which ironically costs a 3rd of the price to replace over the old one. I will never go back to another poorly ergonomically designed steering wheel. The old wheel wasn't ugly it was just useless compared to the new one. The new wheel just makes the retro interior look old. |

From what I have read, thats not why they replaced the steering wheel. It was changed for cost and to bring the interior more modern... at least that's what we were told by GM. You may have read the performance reasons too who know, I have not seen one that says that's why they changed it. I wouldn't mind a more modern interior either. I love the looks of the new Caddies. It's the cross over that is hideous. I think they did a great job with the retro interior, plus they kept it that way because that's the feed back they received if they were to bring the camaro back. I've said it before, but what bug me about the interior... too many colors. Chrome, Glossy silver, matte silver, some brownish goldish silver color, pewter color, black plastic... to many different colors going on inside...

any updates on power, did they up the power any on the 1LE? I believe someone said it on here, this needs to be able to compete with the Boss, as is I hate to say but the Boss will be the Boss!

The dual mode exhaust on the Corvette is worth 6hp. The gearing alone should make the car quicker. |

The gearing isn't as big as an adavantage as you think becuase the internal ratios in the 1LE transmission were changed. Essentially there is only 1 or 2 gears that end up being lower than a SS. The direct drive gear if affected the most. |

Hopefully the torque advantage of the 1LE 420 lb-ft vs the Boss's 380 lb-ft will help out in terms of the Camaros heavier curb weight. GM is notorious for under rating their cars. My 2007 Cobalt SS/SC was rated at 205bhp when in fact they were dyno'ing 210-215whp bone stock. That would indicated a bhp rating of around 230hp vs. their 205bhp rating. I'm willing to bet the 1LE will be more around 430-435bhp (w/ NPP exhaust). |

There are reasons why the 1LE is NOT called a Z28. ![]() If/When a Z28 appears, the BOSS will "know" a true "competitor" has arrived. ![]() ![]() |
