Anyone use these yet?
My ZL1 is in the shop now getting headers, exhaust, pulley and tune. Came across these and for the price I’m extremely interested. Anyone have any experience with them? Looking for quick answers, would need to get them shipped to the shop very soon.

Would like to know how they compare to WeaponX system. Seeing that WeaponX is twice as much. Would ask them about there capacity, WeaponX lists theirs on their website.

Hoping someone has used them and can provide some real world results. I don’t mind spending money on proven parts, but also don’t mind saving dollars on just as good stuff. Sometimes the little guy needs a win. I have no issue supporting the little guy.

Common sense tells me that you can’t make a product as good at close to 1/3 cost of your competitors. But their headers as as good or better than their competitors at less than 1/3 the price. So.....

I wish I would have seen this thread a few hours ago.
Today I ordered this: https://www.mishimoto.com/chevy-cama...tors-2016.html and this: https://lsa-conversion-store.myshopi...heat-exchanger

I would not be comfortable going cheap on something like that.

Thermostats have been around for 85 years, yet Mishimoto managed to screw them up. I am sure many MM customers have had trouble free experiences, but don't think I would put any MM equipment in my car, even the static stuff like rads and CCs. |

I too am skeptical of aftermarket parts. I went with Mishimoto because they are a direct fit (no plastic trimming), they have data to quantify the improvement, and they show exactly how the units were tested vs stock. I'm even more skeptical of the center heat exchanger I purchased from ADM since there is no branding or data. In spite of the outrageous $599 price, I went with this unit because, once again, it is a direct fit. On Monday, my car felt weak on the track. My MPHs were down and my lap times were up. I suspect a significant amount of timing was being pulled due to the heat, so I decided to make some changes. I have another track day on the 16th. We'll see how it goes.

Are they better than stock? DO either supplier show that data ? Temp in / temp out ? Similar conditions ?
Lighter wallet = faster car ?
