This can't be "Only a V6!!"
Installed my VTC that came in today (Thanks Azrael)
10 minute install then off to a friend's to fix his internet. Turned off the traction control to play... HOLY WHEELSPIN BATMAN!! Between the CAI and the Apex scoop and now the VTC I must say, I'm IMPRESSED!! I thought I loved my little LT before, I'm REALLY in love now...

K&N CAI = $231 on sale ( there are 2 listed in the for sale section for a LOT less than that)
Apex scoop and washer bottle relocation kit = $130 from Phasetek Vitesee Throttle Controller = $90 in the for sale section of the forum (they usually go for $120 there) CAI took about 45 minutes The scoop and washer bottle relocation kit took about 90 minutes VTC took 10 minutes I swear, it's like a whole different car! Follow that up with an exhaust upgrade and you'll be in love! (Even more than you are now)

The VITESSE Throttle Controller is what makes the wheels spin. VTC are about $170, and worth every penny. There are many threads about it. I LOVE mine and wouldn't sell it for $340.

Should it be taken off before bringing it in for service at a dealer?

Sold my VTC when I traded in my 2014 V6 for a 2015 2SS. Got tired of spending money on mods trying to make it sound and respond like something it ain't. Figured it would be better to just get a V8 and man WOW no need for a VTC on this car.
I left mine hooked up when I went into the dealer. really unless something breaks that has something to do with throttle control you won't have to worry

Did someone say bigger and badder? lol j/k
I enjoyed my VTC when I had my LFX. I agree. The mods you listed above are a must for any V6 5th Gen Camaro owner. Do yourself a favor and just go straight to the Solo LFX exhaust. http://solo-performance.com/v6-mach-...v6-convertible I went the MRT 2.0 + j-pipes + magnaflow x-pipe......too much drone in the V6. I ended up getting a NPP system off a 1LE and that solved the drone issue but it would have been easier to just get the Solo from the start.

I like the sound of the glasspacks, was planning on adding the resonated x pipe to lower the tone a little more.
MGW short throw and Amsoil Trans fluid change should hold me for awhile... Trying to slow the mod addiction!
