dunno. just dropped like 2400 on parts. not sure if i want to spend another 60 just for a pre dyno when I'm fairly comfortable with the other baselines screamin and pink did (to name a few).

i think i'd rather do it and then dyno it. wife confirmed the intake is waiting at home for me. ooh the excitement!

Link to review? I will shed my thoughts in contrast with it to my own first hand experience.

Keep reading through those threads tho.

Seems like he got some prototype pipes. Just unboxed mine and the tubes are smooth inside and the exterior isn't polished... its not pitted either, its a prime candidate for a matching paint job.

I thought that this was member who went and bought a Mustang so I never looked in here.
I have the Stainless Works long tubes and there is plenty of room on the six. In fact, they are tiny factory manifolds. I think the cats are the same as the SS. I have the high flow cats, 1 5/8" headers, 2.5 pipes and the chambered mufflers with the double wall, slant cut tips.

all parts required for the intake weigh out at just under 4 lbs.

That includes the K&N filter. Cant'wait to rip out the stock stuff and weigh it.

Exactly. This is why I'm looking forward to a new review.

Just talked to the service manager at the dealership (they are finishing the tint job) and asked him about tuning. He said they can tune the v6.

Its costly.... 450 bucks for a one time tune. if its legitimate.... its worth it to me at least to open her up.

Really don't think he knows what he's talking about.

tstpierre · 09-30-2009, 12:21 AM

I questioned him pretty vigorously on it. Its a shop that does only GM vehicles... mainly cadillacs.

Who knows, worth swinging by.

Well, if he does, let us know who and where he is.
No one, as far as I know, has been able to crack the LLT.

Supposedly lingenfelter has...check out their post for the V6 in the FI subforum. Looks badass

tstpierre · 09-30-2009, 05:51 PM

Its really hard to accept that "no one" has cracked it. Its not new. Its been around. I think the availability is just very limited. Lingenfelter 99% for sure has it... it would be pointless for them to invest capital in a failing economy if they could not tune the car to use the rotrex.
