Interest check on 3.6l owners that want performance parts

[Devil_concours]

Seeing how there are other owners frustrated with not having enough aftermarket parts for the new cts w/3.6l v6. Let's see if we can get a list of owners with what they want and let's start sending these lists to all the tuners.

I'll start

Full catback that doesn't require rear bumper cutout
headers
intake
underdrive pulley
supercharger
big rotors/brakes
full coilover or springs/shocks

In terms of pure acceleration type performance with the most "bang for the buck", I think you're missing the boat without getting the ECM or PCM reflashed to a more performance type spec. It was done on the '80's type cars by changing the "chip" in the ECM. Most of the current technology doesn't allow for a "chip" change, the program is an integral part of the on board computer...it has to be reflashed with new logic. NOT rocket science for the right guy, but we'd have to find him and have him develop the program. In the 3.6L CTS, probably should pick up 25-30hp with corresponding torque numbers for $4-500, all with the rest of the car at pure stock. 10% is VERY noticeable with the seat of the pants measuring system. Now to find the reputible guy to do it..... I just had my Viper done at West Coast Viper, cost $500, and the car really does explode when you bury the accelerator in 2nd thru 5th gears. Best $$$ I ever spent IMO.

Mighty fine, thanks! Not too shabby when a 3700# brick can run 12.00's @ 115 with a 20 year old 235" six cylinder running an ECM with less processing power than an old Atari video game. I can only imagine how an all-aluminum DOHC VVT motor would run with a turbo and 15# boost!
