More than just a hobby...

I want to start by saying thank you to Tracy and his amazing team at RX. It was easy to see based on the feedback from the members of this forum that if you want to make your v6 go faster Tracy is the gentleman to help you do it. With that being said I chose to treat my 2011 CGM LS to Tracy's TT kit. Now I just need to exercise some patience until it arrives.

I will also use this opportunity to introduce myself. My name is Nick and I run a pizzeria in Northern Ohio. I've loved cars since I got my first remote controlled one way back when. So becoming a part of this community and transforming my Camaro into something special is big for me. I guess where I was going with the title of this thread is that this isn't a project for me in the sense that I have a ton of extra money that I have nothing better to do with but this car and what it represents is the culmination of years of hard work

Nick

Very cool, and congrats you'll love it!

I agree Tracy is a really great, honest, and VERY hard working guy. Meeting him in person more than confirmed that for me.

Congrats man that is awesome! I two have been working for years to both get my car, and now saving for over a year to get the more than proven RX TT kit for the LLT. I am almost there cant wait!!! Also I read that he is installing the TT kit on an AWD CTS with the LLT, that will be a sick little car!
Keep us posted!

Good, but not sure if you've been keeping up with the super charger builds. We're running too much boost with the over drive pulley's and the fuel system can't keep up

I agree. I am pretty fond of the coupe. The V-Series coupe would be in my Jay Leno garage.

I have been somewhat. It runs well at lower boost though? I believe the TT kits have similar issues as well?

Stock pulley is around 6 psi of boost and there isn't an issue. Yes on a turbo kit if you went higher psi of boost you'd run into issues as well. The nice thing is it's easier to adjust the boost on a turbo..

Its always nice having company. You and Gretchen held it down for awhile though. I'm sure I will be looking to the two of you for advice and guidance at times.
