SnakeEyes I'd try ten grand, but only on the test drive...

Ryan you probably had a cold car and opened the garage on a warm day and bam. I know when it warms up the dock at work will "sweat" like crazy. More slick than ice when it does.

Ok so I'm waiting on the details of whats under the hood sent from my truck in a field

So far just my sig, LS3 6.2 liter. Ordered this today http://www.ssforums.com/forum/engine-technical-discussion/6961-roto-fab-cold-air-intake-7.html one of ten in production, and Weathertech liners yesterday. Waiting for this to get finished as well http://www.magnaflow.com/sales/02product/displayapplications.asp?partnumber=15290

I'll do everything I can within the confines of a warranty. For now...

^I just might, we have a pretty good hot rod shop in town, owned by my Chevy dealer. They just did a new SS for a guy, long tubes, cam and tune, 80 RWHP, est. 110-112 at the crank. Bad news is brand new car, drivetrain warranty void. Not a chance I can afford to take, but I'll bet that car is a blast to drive, it is in stock form. http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/news/2014/01/2014-chevrolet-ss-first-drive-review/index.htm

Same platform as the G8 GXP I owned. I loved that car, prob should have never sold it but the wife's mom was giving me grief about letting it sit in the garage all of the time. Only car I ever owned that I didn't lose money on when I sold it 3 years later.

 

Tell you right now be ready for some issues and fun with stock suspension. The front strut bushings are prone to failure and collapsing. Nice thing is you can replace them with urethane bushings. I did that to the front end, rear bushing kit, sway bars and replaced the stock Bridgestone Potenza's with Michelin Pilot Super Sports, car drove like it was on rails. I added a rotofab intake, magnaflow x-pipe, magnaflow mufflers, 160° stat and tuned the ECM/TCM. Car put down 375rwhp with those mods alone.

 

Was getting ready to put Kooks headers on it when I sold it for a 2008 Vette.

Sounds like a good check list. Keeping the stock tune(and the stock warranty) at least for now.
