Potential of a tuned LT1 6th Gen ;)
Don't know if its a repost. The new LT1 is the shit, period.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MXhrw1nJdsU Pay attention to the torque curve :hail: :hail: |
That is impressive.
|
That's about the same gains as a LS3, 20-25 rwhp/rwtq ...
Nice |

Saw this earlier, it is posted up in a thread in the Other Cars section. But still I agree. The LT1 is a beast. Basically 485hp/485TQ with a tune ONLY...and they may be able to squeeze more out of it with more development time for their tunes.
By the time they are done doing all of their mods for this new engine (cams, heads, intakes, exhaust) we are going to be looking at a 550 - 600 HP N/A engine. Crazy! |

Here is a stock 1LE that was just tuned, no mods ... http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=320751 |

23rwhp/22tq are not the norm for a stock LS3. Clearly the best you can get from a tune. Anyway, if its the norm its just good news for me as I'm untuned right now LOL |

Vette: before=408hp/407tq after=431hp/429tq gain=23hp/22tq 1LE: before=361hp/362tq after=384hp/382tq gain=23hp/20tq Like I said basically the same gains |

I think most people are missing the point of the new motor. It's not about MAX power at the perfect RPM. This Motor is clearly not set up for that. But what GM created is a motor that puts out very impressive torque numbers in the lower RPM range. And still has the ability to put out a lot of horsepower and the Upper rpm range. Something that the LS3/L99 does not do.
A vehicle with the new LT1 even if it had the same MAX HP as a LS3 would be significantly faster. As the LT1 is way more power under the curve. |

That's mainly due to the direct injection used on the LT1. It's the same as the v6, if you look at the dyno graphs the Tq is flat ... |

In addition the the above great results with just a tune....check this out.
LG Motorsports put a C7 on the dyno with headers and no cats. I know the SS can make some nice gains with headers and no cats, but I didn't think they were quite this much! Their testing with NO TUNE shows a nearly 30HP and 47TQ gain at the wheels! http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=322450 |
