You need a "W" pipe to really make power on the LS3...Do a search...

I dont think swamping from the factory stamped x pipe to a aftermarket x pipe will gain any performance.

I thought the O pipe was much better than a W pipe:

Somebody posted it a while ago because they also carry the most sought after mod in the universe: The flux capacitor!

Notice the price, a real bargain!


But the most popular accessory used by many on this forum is the "Butt Dyno."

Yeah that KaleCoAuto thing has been around for YEARS now, I remember people talking about buying some blinker fluid and water cooled muffler bearings way back in 2000.
