Hey guys new to the forum and seen a lot of good advice on here was just wondering if anybody knows a good mechanic in or around central Florida that works on the 2014 lfx motor for my v6 Camaro want to boost the hp/tq a bit higher plus install new clutch and rear gears any advice will be helpful

Raven,
Where are you located in Oklahoma? I'm in Dallas and looking for a good tune for my V6. Yours boosted your car 45 HP? Hard to believe, but not the first time I've heard a tune makes big difference.
I have combo of add ons, but would like to get a tune to see what that does for me as well. I have axle back exhaust, Intake spacer, VMAX throttle body, KN CAI, catch can and plenum spacer. Wondering a couple things if anyone cares to chime in; 1 - what will shorty headers dor for HP and 2 - what will a catback exhaust do HP wise?
I think given what I have now, I'm pushing possibly 330 HP, perhaps with a tune and deeper exhaust mods, I'll perhaps push 360?
Thanks

Yeah i dont believe it. When I added my SC my dyno was 370 rwhp and 330rwtq. Unless there is a power adder or proof, then i doubt that's a realistic number.

Anyways, get yourself an Hptuners suite and I would recommend Ivan @ southwest speed to tune your LLT. He is tuning my Booted LLT and its great.

Is a plenum spacer different than an intake manifold spacer? I'd like this (these) to be my next mod(s) since it seems like a lot of bang for the buck. Sorry if someone already asked this.

Plenum is on top of the intake and manifold spacer (Isolator) is between the manifold and block. You get more bang for your buck with the isolator.

I don't believe 350Hp without bottle or supercharged
I only had 270Hp with my additions

That would be correct. 270 HP is a RWHP with all bolt ons.

I was dynoed at around 265 RWHP and I have every bolt on possible expect the pulley change.

I figure that is close to 350 at the engine give or take a few.

At that point who cares, I ran a 13.6 in the 1/4 and I handle like I am on rails.

Got over 120K miles and people think it look brand new.

Amazing when you take care of your stuff things will last and look good.

Yes, the plenum spacer is on top and not worth much, but if you want to have every bolt on item, you need to add this one too.
