Early LGX Information
I thought I would kick off the LGX section now that we've seen the performance numbers. Hopefully we'll start seeing some bolt-ons real soon.

It's really the all around star if your looking for performance and MPG.

Start stop feature is nice for fuel savings.

I'll be part of the V8 crowd this time around, but you can bet I'll be checking in on you V6 peeps!
Here's what you want: -intakes -tunes -ported throttle body -ported or filled intake manifold -high flow cat and catless pipe -intake manifold spacer (1/2 to 3/4") OK....no whos going to make this stuff for the V6 crowd. Just some of these and you guys will be giving stock 5th gen L99s a hard time.

People are going to hate this auto stop feature trust me. I hate it on my Malibu so I disabled it.
Hopefully GM will allow the V6 Camaro peeps a way to disable this feature if they want.

Has there been any research done as to whether or not this is actually bad for the engine? Sure it must be hard on starters. I live in a city and deal with the constant traffic issues and traffic lights. Think it would drive me insane. |

I was watching a video about a 1969 428 Super Cobra Jet Mustang the other day, it was rated at 335HP, the same as the new V6.

Yes the engine shuts off at stops..some manufacturer s have it on the manual transmission as well. Its super annoying just my opinion..

I'm working on the porting/filling of the intake right now, right out of the box, it's 12% better than the stock 12-15 LFX manifold, but 10% worse than my modified LFX intake manifold. I'm just starting to play with it, but I've got a feeling that I can get it to flow at least as good as the ported LFX intake manifold, if not 2x better. This intake manifold is built to flow, it just needs a little helping hand. You know what's funny about this? There is speculation that the 6th gen v6 may run a 13.3ish 1/4 mile time. An old family friend had a fully restored cream puff 1970 Mach 1 w/ a 428 SCJ, bone stock. That's real close to what it would run on a good day... It made me extremely happy to beat him repeatedly with my low budget SBC 355 in a heavy 71 Chevelle that was 4 different colors. Last edited by Jason@JacFab; 10-30-2015 at 12:27 AM. |
