LFX TT talk + LF3/LF4 talk

[Pasha]

So i am just morbidly curious about specs for LFX camaros with TTs added on (particularly Fabberge...but tell me if you know of something with higher quality).

My parenthetical statement also leads me to ask (since I'm in a semi-proper forum section now), is it reasonable, feasible, or even possible to chuck an LF3 into a 1LT camaro? Because that could be like my senior project or something lol.

As far as the LF4, Jason says it will likely just be a minorly adjusted LF3. Thoughts?

As I mentioned in my response to your other post, not much is known about the "LF4" at the moment. You can check out all of our LF3 talk here: http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=283523, there is pictures, part numbers, etc etc for the new LF3 parts.

As far as the Fabberge kit, it's pretty much the only v6 twin turbo kit available, so you're not going to find one that's better (without going full custom and spending quite a bit of $$)

I've accumulated quite a bit of the key LF3 parts, and everything that I have so far will bolt right onto an LFX. I do not have the turbos (yet), and to my knowledge no one has bought them and tried to put them on. I'm not sure if they will bolt on and fit without clearance issues.

I would imagine the long block LF3/4 will bolt right in. I just don't know if the turbos will clear.

From what I've come across on Google, the main differences in the LF4 as compared to the LF3 are:

Low-inertia titanium-aluminide turbines
Lightweight titanium connecting rods
An efficient and patented low-volume charge-air cooler

And then considering there is the theoretical LF4.R racing engine which I'm not sure if you can actually get parts for?


Larger, twin BorgWarner turbochargers
Increased capacity intercoolers
Competition engine management
Upto 600 HP/520 TQ

But the biggest thing that jumps out at me is: Intake: Carbon fiber with integral high-capacity water-to-air-intercoolers

Considering it look me something rediculous like 6 months just to receive the aluminum intake I ordered direct from the dealer. I think it's going to be pretty tough to get your hands on the carbon fibre LF4.R intake, and more than likely impossible.

How does the size of the lf3 turbos compare to the ones in the fabberge kit?

I don't know how they compare to the Fabberge turbos
