Seems interesting.. will this change sound like on the LS3?? I know it won't sound like a v8, but I'm curious?

I have Stock LFX exhaust downpipes W/cats ( only 4,000 on the exhaust ) if you need them to do a test let me know.

I'm getting the sneaking suspicion, that the tune for this might be vaporware.

The tough part would be engineering new valves and cams to increase power. Then you have to find off the shelf parts or someone to manufacture those parts in low qtys and still keep the cost down. Although the exhaust ports seem to be optimized (close to max size within their space)......their does seem to be room for larger intake valves that could deliver more air and fuel to the chamber, which would mean more power. A good comparison of potential power would be the Porsche 3.6 engine which in the standard 2008 911 delivered 325 HP (sound familiar?). However the 3.6 in GT3, the performance version of the 911, had 415 HP with the same displacement. Different valves, cams and fuel map. So practically, numbers around 400hp are entirely possible by just just changing the heads and cams. Nice cheap power through GM, cuz the 3.6 long block is about $4k whereas the Porsche motor is closer to $15K. |

If I wanted to short cut the design time of the new heads/valves/cam changes (design is always the longest phase), I would just take the specs from the 415HP GT3 and see how much I could integrate into the GM 3.6L.
Its easier to copy than it is to create. BTW...the specs would work with either the LFX or the previous design.... 3.6=3.6. |

I meant this with respect to the LLT.
