a better suspension will make you faster in and out of corners and help plant the power to the ground better.

Do you think that the ZL1 dual mode exhaust will make the V6 sound good? I have a V6 so i'm not hating... I just haven't found an exhaust that makes enough difference for me to want it. I would be interested in the dual mode if it sounds significantly better.

All these concepts have the 10 Spoke ZL1/1LE wheels....I wonder if they will start selling those wheels in various finishes !

I'd love to have them in polished or chrome....just don't like the black finish much.

I'd like to know why that exhaust is available on the ZL1 with a automatic but not a SS with the automatic.

The hell with the splitter, I want to know what they did to fit the 1LE's 3.91 in there.

Probably because the ZL1 doesn't have AFM...

It would sound like a ford pinto when the AFM kicked in.

like the 3:91 rear end myself, but those 20 look small for some reason, wider gap between tire and fender.

This ought to make getting a set of 3.91's from GM pretty easy. Wonder if theyd stand up to V8 beating

The manual V6, SS, and 1LE use the same basic limited slip differential. The difference being the gear set. I can get a set of 3.91 1LE gears and install them with no issues.

So we need the v6 DUSK front splitter part number didn't know this was a option but it looks the best out of all the aftermarket imo. I'd order this tomorrow if its a dirrect bolt on, and i'm one that wants to go corner hard we've never wanted to go straight for a 1/4 mile we corner hard every other sunday out at autocross and already are gathering 1LE suspention parts as we speak
