Newbie looking to Introduce myself!
What's going on everyone! I just ordered my 2008 Atomic Orange Coupe LS3 Z51 NPP LT3 NAV. I am so excited..... I debated long and hard between this new LS3 and the LS2 at 0% financing. I basically figured why not get the best with the LS3 rather than regret it in 2 months. (Thanks to all your posts here to make my decisiion easier too). I already ordered my CAGS plugs but I want to start looking at bolt ons. I would like to due a CAI, pulley and tune but need advice. I live in New Jersey and plan on racing down in Englishtown. Can anyone offer advice and people whi are VERY knowledgable with tune? I greatly thank you all in advance. Look forward to meeting somem of you at the track! Peter

1 place to go Cartek!!! this is what their bolt on package has done for me. a complete detail of the mods gains and ets with some videos as they went along, is in the 1/4 mile performance challenge thread this is the latest
and hopefully better times to come next time at the track. now remember this is a bolt/on only car, just imagine the times it will put down cam only, then heads and cam. i just don't see how any other shop can come close.

Congrats on the new ride Peter. Send those CAGS plugs back for a refund if your getting a tune done. The tuner will turn off the CAGS for ya when they do the tune. My brother in Oregon did the H/C package from Cartek with Kooks Headers and FAST intake w/Vararam CAI. Turned his LS2 into an animal. I went the Maggie route with mine. Enjoy the new ride.
