Were working on the LY7 now....have destroyed a few in the process (part of the development) but the demand is there. Takes on average 2-4 months R&D for each different application before Pete has it perfected.

Since installing mine at around 4,000 miles and now having 8,000 miles I am happy to say my car has really woken up. I am getting the best mileage ever and the car has no hesitations like it did before. If anyone is still on the fence about this I say jump off that damn fence and get one. Best money you can spend. I know I didn't buy mine from you (I have CRS and cant remember who I got mine from) but its the same one you sell and you and the other vendors on here selling them would not steer anyone wrong.
Thanks guys.

I like your style.....

In my opinion, the Camaro folks are always the most dedicated and inspired. I like that part of it myself.

Thanks for the love guys! Keep em comin.

This part should be required to be installed before you can post on the forum (V-6 owners).

Of course it should be paired with a CAI, etc. Anybody lurking, order it. I placed my deposit and waited on the initial batch after reading about what good the first one did, and it was worth it. Now, there's no wait. It's a no-brainer.

Great call.

I say this for the LS3/L99 guys when it comes to LT Headers.

But seriously, this is a no brainer and you'll never regret getting one. I can still enjoy the one we put in our shop car a few years back. Works as advertised.

And the fact that no tune is required....pft. GO!

Our apologies on this, as the cores are being returned slow the production also gets held up by that too. VMax works their fastest to get throttle bodies turned around to all of us dealers, but if we are struggling to get cores back it hurts things.

I sent you a PM, I hope that my offer is reasonable for your patience.

Thanks

Please PM price...I'm interested in getting ASAP. Thx

Let us konw if anyone wants any of the VMax CNC Pattern ported TB's.....we and Mike Norris were the ones in this from the beginning, and I dont think you will find anyone with more hands on knowledge, that has been involved in the development in these from the first days of the LS1 so many years ago, and many application since....to the LFX here that WE put the investment out for nearly 6 months to bring these to the LFX crowd. Anything you need to know technically, just ask. One of the best Mods for the Money, and Pete Incaudo of VMax has more years of product R&D (way back to the early days of Edelbrock, to AFR, Comp Cams, etc. his genius has brought this product to you the consumer, and there are more on the way.

I've read through a lot of these posts and the impression I get is that the gains are minimal.

No offense but it almost sounds like most are justifying the expenditure rather than being excited about an significant improvement.

sycraft · 02-23-2013, 08:56 PM

its not as much about the gains as it is about the driveability, more linear without a flatspot or dip
