New LS3 Owner! 8 Hour Bolton Madness!
Hey guys, im new to the forum and just purchased a 2008 Base 1lt. I came from a 2004 GTO with a TSP 370 putting out around 455Whp. The C6 is def a BIG upgrade compared to the beast GTO!
Had the car at Jformatos shop yesterday and we spent the entire after noon doing almost full bolt ons to the car. The car is a total blast to drive now and really scoots out of first. The torque is threw the roof now compared to stock!
Z06 manifolds/H-pipe/Cats
160Tstat
TR55's
Ported Intake manifold
Ported TB
Haltech intake
Clutch Rebleed
Lowered car maybe 2 inches?
Street Tune.
The old beast! For sale if interested!

I took about the same route as you...kinda, started out with 5.0 mustangs, then got tired of LS1's making more power than me for so much less money so I swapped that for a 6.0 GTO, which I loved. But old habits die hard and I picked up an 04 Cobra, only to miss the "GM refinement" and still wanted a lighter car, so 08 base Vette finally got picked up.
I had initially planned on purchasing a Vette after I sold my 5.0 but a leg injury made the Goat a better choice at the time. Plus I think I enjoy the Vette more now having owned the Goat and Terminator.
