Just adding high flow cats throws a code(just an example)...so deleting them in my mind would make me ask where would put the sensors?

I know some people will just tie them back to something since the rear sensors get tuned out anyway. But I don't know if I'd want to do that or not.

I stripped down my plenum cover and painting it to match my valve covers. I didn't really like the paint I had before. Plus it was pretty scratched up from being at the dealer.
Also Re-polishing my IM. First time I did it I did not go very rough so it left some texture. The right side is just after the 1st of 4 Polish steps.

First time ever at track: 15.246 @ 101.52 2.842 60'
Second run: 13.972 @ 103.44 2.215 60'

My goal for the night was to break 13's.. and I actually did it lol. I'm pumped.

lscamaro · 05-24-2013, 07:36 PM

Damn, u spun like no tomorrow the first run. Your car actually has a lot more in it because of the 2.2 60'. Getting some traction will bring that time down even more

MDV6er · 05-24-2013, 07:54 PM

Yeah I didn't warm the rubber. Just pulled up to the line and launched.

Hope you guys don't mind, but I stole your idea and made a V8 lounge

Hi Folks! I'm currently looking to purchase a new 2013 or 2014 Camaro. I bought a new 2002 red 35th anniversary Camaro back on September 12 2001. Sad day, great car. My question is this - I just test drove a 2LS camaro coupe - loved the car, hated the seat. Is it me, or is the lumbar section a little too intense?

Welcome winstonscifi!
I actually find the seats really comfortable in my Camaro. I took a trip to Colorado (800 miles) and had absolutely no discomfort at all which is unusual for me. I highly recommend the new Camaro, it is very fun to drive and gets attention wherever it goes.

Every car seat feels different when you first sit in it. I personally love it and it's made longer trips more comfortable than just about any car I've ever owned. My wife keeps the adjustable lumbar support in her Jag set to rock hard due to lower back problems, but I can't stand that setting, so always soften it when I get in. Each persons need is different, but the seat in my Camaro is perfect for me.

Very nice. Be sure to post up some pictures of the final product. I plan on buying my paints for my manifold paint job next week. I plan on doing a metallic silver with a gloss black plenum and throttle body

Quick question, do any v6s have the pfadt solid subframe bushings?
