Nice numbers...12 points is a big split. You 115 LSA will make that more livable from what I hear.

I just hope my ins co doesn't consider my car "modded" (CAI and tune). I could put my stock tune back in since I have an AutoCal and I also have my stock air intake too.
The last three minutes of the video I was like three inches from the screen with the volume up. Then you mentioned car insurance Here's and idea, call your insurance company and tell you have a tune and CAI and let us know what happens

nah, my mods are not that obvious, I'll just play dumb and say the CAI was on there when I bought it (which it was) and I thought it was stock.

440whp/402rwtq is a nice result, congrats.

What was the baseline? What do LS3s normally dyno?

my understanding is very high 300s. My friend on his stock one got 407rwhp.

Anyways, it should be the least of our concerns but I'd be curious what MPG you get. Right now I get around 18mpg mixed driving with a semi-heavy foot

Get notified of new replies

To Wow what a difference a 100hp makes!

Default Mpg

I was at 19.2 for life - Matt at 21st Century said expect to lose a couple mpg in the city and add a couple on the highway! Jury is out but Matt knows his bizzzz so I figure this will be the result.

Very nice.

Enjoy the power. You'll forever be of the opinion from here on out that every vette should have at least 500 hp.

Onpoint I think you are right as 500 seems to be another window or point to be at?
