One question/comment: If you are getting a set of 1LT wheels, why not put summer meats on them and put winters on your stocks? Tires can improve your car performance just as much as engine stuff.

Because I was going to use the stock tires as my burnout rims.

Xanthos! Great to see you are alive. Can't wait to see the finished product.

Probably won't happen, unfortunately. I spent the last of my Camaro fund money to buy my new condo. The best I can hope for at this point is that all the research I've done will help somebody else make a bad-ass V6 Camaro. Or that I win the lottery. The former seems more likely than the later.

A condo is a nice purchase, living on your own?

And I'm in the same boat. If I win the lotto I'm sure I'll be reviewing your notes.

Xsanthos, keep doing your thing. Sounds like a great plan, and i fi was in the area, heck i would try your CAI and Exhausts set up as thats all the money i have. I will be happy with having 350-370 horses, maybe you can help me out with just getting that.
Its not a dream, its a plan, just need to get the materials to make the product!
Keep up the good work!
P.S thumbsup to all who are supporting him, and to those giving him and us advice, thats what the site is for.
And i really think that we should join in with Mustangs and Challys to smoke ricers, we are all brothers, we all have our occasional fights though

Well dude, you know I'm going to use most of it. I don't have enough badassery to do all of it.

I hope to modify my 1LT once I have the cash flow... Some of this stuff sounds pretty doable... What is the cost and and potential added power of adding a turbo or supercharger...

Probably 40% power improvement (about 120 horses at the flywheel) and cost would be about 6-8 grand.

That regulator is interesting, but I don't think its going to work. Looking at this photo from the vendor's site make it look like it is meant for carbs and maybe port injection. The LLT's high pressure fuel pump makes 500psi at idle (1,700 at WOT) which would burst those rubber lines.

I hadn't thought about that. I suppose I'll have to take the 250 bucks and settle for a tune (diablo, maybe?) instead, and just settle for a voided warranty.

Has anyone come out with a tune for the 3.6L yet? Or are we still waiting for someone to crack it?
