Jon Strickler's ETMC build 2010 ls3

[east TX Muscle cars]

Jon called me up a few months ago and was wanting to go the FI route with his new camaro. He wanted a dependable car, yet with a good kick. Also wanted to be able to still drive it to anywhere he wanted and not worry abotu a thing. After talking to him for a while he decided on out stage 1 kit. During the waiting phase for the blower he also decided on the Pfadt lite kit too to give his car a better stance and handling. He dropped off the car last weekend for the build and picked it up Friday evening. Here is the before and after results, and some pics and vid.




































Before PEAK numbers were 369/360 STD after was 557/559 STD
for the sae guys 360/351 after 545/548 peak HP.


Thanks again Jon for making the long drive to come and see us here at ETMC!

This is my car, I picked up my car last Friday from East Texas Muscle Cars and all I can say is WOW ! Stephen and Chris did a fantastic job and I couldn't be happier.
Had the following installed.

Magnacharger TVS2300 Chrome Supercharger
ARH Headers w/Hi flow cats
Magnaflow Street Series axle back exhaust
Rotofab CAI
Rotofab Aluminum engine covers
Port & Polish Throttle Body
Pfadt coil springs and sway bar

The car runs and drives great. I now know I made the right choice to drive 560 miles to have these guys work on my car.

How much boost for those numbers? Did you do sway bars on both front and rear?
If yes, how did affect cornering now?

Perfect package and great numbers!

[Bixby]

Boost is 7.5 and I only did the rear sway bar and coil springs, it drives and handles like a whole new car, ride quality is as good or better than factory.

The reason you didn't do the front, was it because the S/C was in the way?

[Bixby]

The supercharger isn't in the way of the front sway bar, I didn't feel like I need it since I wasn't going to take it to the track and race it, this is my daily driver.

Congrates and enjoy!!! You might want to make sure Steven has a set of axles in stock

Thanks for clearing that point. The reason I asked, because the New Ford GT comes with front sway bar, but if you put a S/C, [seems to me] you have to remove it, so I thought that was for the same reason in Camaro case.

Thanks again, beautiful setup!

He just purchased the PFADT lite kit . it only comes with the rear bar. but a front bar will fit just fine!
