Stock or Mod? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I see a lot of you are talking about modfiying this or that. Changing this or that. My question to you is what do you prefer stock or modified? Myself I plan on keeping everything stock. I am a purest like that. I wont consider a change. To me the way it comes from the factory is perfect. Also...... How many of you will keep the window sticker. I plan on doing it. Ive kept them from all of my vehicles.

This is my take on what I will be researching as far as making my Camaro SS a project car. This is the list below of items I will be looking to install on the car.
1. Eaton gen 6 TVS R2300 roots 4-lobe supercharger
2. Behr Hella air to water, dual brick intercoolers X2. One for each cylinder bank.
3. Compression pistons 9.1:1 top anodized & skirts polymer coated
4. Titanium connecting rods & Inlet valve
5. 10.75 quart oil pan and oil cooler
6. 225cc Large bore CNC Ported w/ parts 72cc
7. EPP LS Forced Induction Camshaft
8. Holley/ weiand/ lingenfelter LS1/ LS6 aluminum intake
9. 9-keywa double roller billet timing set for GM gen III (LS1, -2, -6)
10. PEDDERS Camaro Track II w/ Drop Coil

One other Idea for the engine is the

The APS High Output Systems:
C6 Corvette- Twin Intercooled- Twin Turbo G8 kit

Extreme Performance Full return Fuel System

High Output Exhaust System

The info I gathered from the APS system :
With nearly 700 horsepower at the flywheel and over 640 FtLb of torque on tap, the C6 Corvette is an awesome weapon - And that's through the stock exhaust system!
Manual trans, Stock mufflers, 93 (R+M)/2 octane fuel (East Coast fuel blend).

10.5 psi of turbocharger boost pressure in the mid range trimming to 9 psi near red line results in outstanding power and torque.
Manual trans, Stock mufflers, 93 (R+M)/2 octane fuel (East Coast fuel blend

The pic of the “C6” I saw on the DYNO had flames shooting out the pipes at least 12-inches.

Modified... subtly, from the outside you wont notice it except for a few VERY subtle changes (chrome billit badges instead of the plastic painted ones.. and such..

Zieke · 09-19-2008, 02:12 PM

ill most likely keep it stock.
my 78 camaro is where ill have fun, just some small mods tho.
such as a new 350 vortec V8.

I believe in having the best parts. That means that some GM components will be replaced with parts that maximize performance and reliability. I also want to make the Camaro my own. This is my Camaro, and it will be my car for a long time to come.
