Need help this may start a war
 

So I'm up in arms on whether to build my current l99 (headers, catback, intake, tune) or to sell my car for a ls3. Will a boosted l99 keep up or be faster than a ls3? Thanks!

Do you like to ride in your car. Or do you like to drive your car?

Pretty much if you have to ask. You don't want an LS3. Put an LSA blower on your car. And call it a day

Why do you say that? I love to get on the thing. I find myself thinking is it worth getting a ls3 for the manual. That and the power everyone seems to say that once I get anywhere near 675 in a l99 I have to worry about the trans

Because the l99 I've been told won't make as much power as the ls3 due to loss through the trans

Because if you want a manual car you generally know you want a manual car. And correct if your looking at pushing an serious power at all. Your looking at 8k or more for a trans. Or stay around 625-650hp. And just put in a nasty stall and will be 10s car

At the track the L99 has been out performaning the LS3, there's L99s making over 900rwhp. A 6L80E will hate life around 650/700hp. You can make 1000hp on an ls3 but it won't be any faster then a 700hp auto at the track.

Good to know, would the zl1 a6 hold more?

Comes down to personal preference, and what your goals with the car are.

Would be a great choice.

There. Fixed that for ya.

Where in Mass you at? My son(oldest)went to WPI so familiar with area..anyway..the REAL question is:

A: How much money u got?

B: How fast you want to go?

C: Divide A by B equals Reality LOL

The DOD delete on L99 makes it an LS3 less trans, either trans plus rest of rear drive train will need upgrading equal to 1.5x power of engine(safety factor)

Or build Warhawk and sky's the limit..

BTW - Do you want to shift or not?

I'm in Rockland on the south shore. I do want to shift myself. And I need to research what Warhawk is 😁

Run Martin on the street. Still get banged.

That makes 0 sense
