@@woptobrson417 it's all in the tune. No trans kits to install anymore. All electronically controlled. My regular drive mode drives smooth. Push the shifter over into sports mode and the shifts firm up nicely and gears are held longer. Then bump the stick into manual mode and it will not up shift until redline. So if I'm rolling at 40-50 i can put it into 2nd gear and just hammer it and it will run out each gear before shifting and i don't have to do anything.
i have a 09 just like it, same color, cammed, camaro 3;45gears, loud, u started to talk about the drone noise, i have lots of it, hate it, what did u do to fix it? ive read about adding a capped J pipe to existing pipe, im wanting 2 try it, what have U done or want 2 do??
It’s a pretty good motor but once you get over the 120k miles most get a lifter tick so at some point your more then likely have to do lifters, which isn’t that bad. They also have a dod delete but it’s easy to fix with a tune etc. but overall it’s holds up pretty well
Did you have to remove/ replace anything with the DOD to support a more aggressive cam? I've been looking into it for my gt but I want to know what I'm getting into before I just throw a new pair of heads on it
Yeah your going need to do the dod delete, ls7 lifters, dual valve spring and all that. I have a video I made about a year ago discussing all the parts
You're better off getting a 5th gen camaro buddy, trust me. However one of these will likely be my next daily. My current daily is getting up there and don't intend on using my SS as a daily.
