from LSJ to LNF

I went from my victory red 2006 LSJ 105k miles last saturday to a crystal red metallic tintcoat 2010 LNF 32k miles fully loaded LSD, RPD.

Everything is better. Already got the catless downpipe, BPV, and K&N intake just waiting for the chance to meet up with CSS3 to get it tuned. everything on this car is better, I'm extremely pleased with it.

only complaint I have is the RPD lacks major brightness even with the contrast turned all the way up and one of the rear speakers is making a whining sound as if it's got a ground loop or something. luckily it's not loud and if the radio is up just a few notches you can't really hear it anymore, but i'd like to figure that out and she's good to go.

I went from an 06 to an 09 fully loaded and I love it too. The seats are better and pretty much everything else is also. Only thing I miss is the whine of the supercharger

Welcome to the dark side!

Whine is good, but righteous sneezing through the CAI is better.

Sneezing through the intake should begin tomorrow. Hopefully I can arrange to get tuned soon though. Don't wanna drive around too much untuned with the altered fuel trims.

Right about 300 whp. As it dynod 280whp on stock clutch stock mounts and stock exhaust. Nah I left pretty much all mods on the car but I did go see chevycobaltss3 and get a 93 octane tune put back on it the day before I traded it in.

It seems that you're still within 3yrs/36k miles warranty for bumper-to-bumper... Get all your issues resolved while you're under warranty and it'll be as good as new.

Other than that, PICS? Lol.. I went from an L61 to LNF and let me tell you what a difference lol, I think of it every single day I drive my L61 as the winter car.
