So, has anyone heard anything new? I can't wait to see what we can adapt for use on our engines.

I did a little reading on some dyno testing on the LF3. It seems to confirm exactly what I figured GM was doing with this engine, and what it is capable of:

This was a head 2 head featuring the LF3.

I've been searching for quite awhile to find tuning results for this engine.
I finally found something from KPE (I believe also partnered with IPF or something along those lines) and the results are pretty impressive if you ask me. The graph below is from the XTS VSport, not the CTS-VSport and I think this is an AWD model. I'm looking forward to seeing results from the CTS RWD cars. Green is stock. Blue is a stage 1 tune, and red is the stage 2 tune. From: http://www.cadillacforums.com/forums...uning-kpe.html

Didn't Arno say they always correct for drivetrain loss? If so, then those numbers seem low. If they are really at the wheels then those are some nice numbers for a AWD vehicle. It would be nice to see the boost and AFR plotted as well.

dyno
I agree. This might be fly wheel numbers.

Nice to see a force inducted production v6 from an american auto manufacturer, although I think we all want to see 500+hp or even 600hp from a v6 while maintaining efficiency while ensuring the engine's integrity.
I take it the LF3 is an iteration on the LFX which is an iteration on the LLT? |

Seems like the graphs he shows from his tests in foreign countries are always crank power. This was from a shop in Scottsdale Arizona and the power numbers are listed as "AWHP" and "AWTQ" as in from an all wheel drive version of the XTS See above. I highly doubt this is crank power....which means there is some very impressive power there.

Well stock is advertised as, what, 420/430 crank power? And he has 350/326 as the stock numbers, which would be around correct for AWHP...

My bad I was looking at the graph on the top of the left hand corner that says Eng Power/ Eng Torque.
