...and further, the ZL1 is an awesome car for the money. I really love it. But, it is heavy and after driving it for a season I feel it could use an extra 50-80 HP. I now find myself seriously pondering putting a blower pulley on my car. I've not been overly impressed with the aftermarket "tuning" (I refer to it as calibration) process. These guys don't really understand what they are doing. I know a thing or two about engines, combustion and calibrations. These tuners in most cases aren't formally trained in engine calibration or combustion analysis. They just basically wing it.

So, it's about $2500 for a pulley, CAI and dyno cal. I'd gladly pay double that for the same thing from the factory that is backed by warranty. I touch my LSA and my warranty is out the window.

I realize that I may be in the minority in my thinking here.
