I have it with the LMII. Had it installed at the dealer and no issues with warranty - even at other dealers.

Thats awesome. how much did the dealer charge you to put it on? How do you like it? Is there much gas milage differance?

You do not have to spend ton's of money on your car,, your Motor is a killer in stock form,,if you just want a little more bang..go with a good Cat Back System,[ you do not need headers ] add a good Cold Air Intake, I use AEM's Brute Force
and then get a good dyno tune,,you can have a speed shop do it all including labor for under 2,000.00,,,,, or if you do not have the cash to spend,, you can do a full dyno tune and ad a Cold Air intake including labor for under 1,000.00

You can get a lot of good information from the people on this web site..and like I said before, when it comes to mods, you can go from MILD to WILD or you can just leave the car in Stock form.. The LS1's and LS2's are great motors in factory stock condition,,and they respond very well to minor changes,,if you plan on driving the car a lot,, leave the car stock or just add a few bolt on items,,you do not have to spend thousands to have a MEAN CAR,,you already are driving one..GOOD luck with your choice

Every dealer I checked with wanted the same (1000 – 1100) for installation. Afterwards, it was massively obvious that the power had increased throughout the RPM range. The other thing I noticed was, under normal driving, gas mileage actually improved by 1 to 2 miles per gallon. I have an auto and now get 17 city and 20.5 highway.

Honestly, it’s a little too loud for me, but everyone (including the service departments I’ve been to) always comment on how good it sounds. The rockers, surprisingly enough, roughen up the idle a bit and everyone asks what kind of CAM I have.

Still, you can get more of a gain for about 1000 less with a cam/head package. It comes down to; what you’re looking for now; how much additional power it will take to keep you happy; what your future plans are; and how important it is to keep your warranty and have the option of an extended warranty.

I have a video of the sound from inside the car, and pictures of the engine bay one year+ after install (shows how well the coating holds up). Let me know if you want me to post these up.

In car clipYou can hear how loud it is, but the camera didn't capture the drone, which is in the 2000 RPM range.
