Uh... not for me. I mean, that car is definitely a viable option for somebody but for me it looks like you straight up ruined the car. It's atrocious, disgusting and the design that you came up with is the biggest POS ever.

true numbers
Have you dinoed after these parts were put on or are you just guessing. I changed my exhaust and I don't tell people I picked up more hp, because I don't have facts and printout to prove it. Every part says you get more hp but how true is it, makes for a great selling ad.
Also if you changes the exhaust why are there still the big 55 gallon drums sticking out the back? Last edited by infernoinandout; 03-07-2010 at 06:53 AM. Reason: forgot key question |

Props for trying to make your own custom special editions...... but unfortunately these examples have been poorly executed. The badging has no historical context, and gives a look similar to knock-off women's handbags. The skull is oddly placed and looks like a cheap tattoo, and the bowtie painted on the rear completely ignores the lines of the car. And as previous posters have commented, the chrome has to go.
You all are in terrible need of a designer. Best of luck.

We put on the airaid filter and the max power was 362.04 with no tuning adjustments. We then put on the Halltech yellow jacket system and the max power was 357.35 hp with no tune. However this filter system made upset the cars air/fuel mixture a great deal and we determined that if you are going to run this filter system you really need a retune and at that point it should out perform the airaid system. We then put on the airaid filter (since this is the filter system that will work best with the suncoast hood) and the SLP headers, crossover pipes, and powerflow exhaust. This combination dynoed out at 393.95 with no retuning. The SLP 1.85 ratio rocker arm assembly was then installed. The dyno said 405.03 hp at this point with no retuning. We then did a conservative retune ( don't want to lean the engine out too much just to gain 5 more HP) and the final number was 417.20 HP and 412.61 TQ. I don't know where you guys come off thinking that I have the stock exhaust on this car. I have more detailed picturs of the exhaust system used on my web site. google radAir cars and you can get to the website. Look under the 2010 Camaro section. We also do some really high performance stuff with Corvettes. Check out those cars also. Anyone can come up to BIR during one of there HPDE schools and we can do a couple runs on the track and see what you think. |

The chrome teatment on the grill is optional and it does look good on some color combinations. Also chrome is retro just like the chrome Foose wheels. Finally our 575hp version is priced $4000.00 less than the SLP ZL575 and we even put enough clear on the hood and trunk painted racing stripes so that we can sand them down and buff them out so there is no paint ridge. The SLP conversion at our local chevy dealer has ridges in the clear along the racing stripes. We have the magnason supercharger just like the SLP car which comes with a drivetrain warantee of 3 years or 36,00 miles from Magnason. |

I think I just threw up in my mouth a lit---no, a lot. You should be imprisoned for this, lol.
But to each his own. I don't want to meet the people that are paying you to do this to their cars.

I'd honestly take a SLP hands down. To each their own, but it's way overdone and the Z/38 naming is pretty cheesy. |
