Hey Guys,
I thought I'd give anyone who is interested an update on my latest mod which turned out very well.
I sent my LS6 throttle body (78mm) down to a guy in Florida called Pete of VMax Motorsports and he CNC'd my throttle body and sent it back (great service). I then ordered a tune update with Trifecta (thinking it would need it since I had a significant increase in air flow) but after sending them a new log they said the air/fuel trims were still good and that they didn't need to make any adjustments (and sent me a refund). Well, the main reason for the update is I think I've hit a sweet spot in terms of all of my mods working together and giving me a V1 that REALLY has woken up - VERY fast acceleration, super-quick throttle response, pulls very hard in every gear right to redline.
My mild mods:
1. Volant air intake (which is a zero-sum game, IMO, until you open up your throttle body)
2. VMax Motorsports CNC'd ported TB (a dramatic increase in airflow)
2. Random technology high flow cats with stock manifold & exhaust (expensive but worth it)
3. Trifecta tuning (haven't heard others mention this company but they've been good and Vince, their main tuner, knows our engines very well)
Anyway, next mod is the LS7 clutch swap.
