LT4 engines
Hey guys,
I'm new to this forum and to LT4 engines as well. What is the easiest way to improve engine performance on my ZL1. I'm reading about new performance chips, air filters and supercharger lids. Any feedback would be appreciated. |

There are no more CHIPS. You tune the LT4, but I would get familiar with the car first. The LT4 has so much power it can get squirly at WOT....

This depends on many factors. Is warranty a consideration? If not - a tune, LTs, CAI, and E' will get you around 650-WHP without adding any blower heat and the car will run forever. Is emissions a consideration? If so - you can't likely do much. What's your budget?
Distill your question better and you'll find more helpful suggestions.

I suggest you learn more about your engine, engines in general. Not saying this to be offensive, but if you own or are planning to own a ZL1, you will thank yourself later by putting yourself in a position to make informed, knowledgeable decisions.
