No headers for you. Your manifold is built in to your block. LLT on 2010-2011 models can have headers.

Congrats on the first mod! On the 2012+ you cannot get headers because the exhaust manifold is integrated into the head.

After the intake, I would suggest a catch can, a VMAX throttle body and then the exhaust of your choice.

You have the LFX V6 motor that was changed in the 2012models. Same motor that is in the Caddy's that is getting Twin Turbos. I think this is why they are integrated into the block.

Here are a few pics to help you better understand

So this is probably a stupid question but would that make it easier to intergrate twin turbos and an inter cooler into my engine?

Wow thank you that is very helpful. What is the purpose of this is my question? Saved space?

Denis · 10-09-2013, 01:04 PM

hmmm wonder why they did that. would the turbo just bolt right to the head?

BenningJ · 10-09-2013, 01:48 PM

With a single outlet point it will be easier to route the pipe to the turbo.

EDIT: No I didn't have headers, it was loud enough the way it was and sounded good.

13lstuner · 10-09-2013, 01:49 PM

Hmm interesting. So I guess I will get a turbo eventually! That'll be the day !

Deezee · 10-09-2013, 01:52 PM

+1 on the Vmax ported throttle body! Its like $150, a 10min install, no tune needed and made the throttle response much better!
