I love how he bounces around on mods because people need to understand no single part effects 1 thing it's all a combination of math and planning.
Stainless works complete exhaust, Roto Fab intake, flex fuel and a tune.
+n8_1le Nice setup
LethalGarage You have influenced my decisions . Thanks
n8_1le how much power are ya making with that setup? I just got a 2016
I got a 2017 2ss 50th anniversary. I put on the FAI cold air intake, oil catch can, put 305s on the back and 275s on the front, Borla attack exhaust, zl1 taillights and i painted the side skirts the burnt orange to match the stripes. And she's gorgeous.
Not a power adder, but something that can make a big difference in how fast your car is by changing rear end gears. My 12 Mustang Gt had 3.15 gears in it when I bought it. I changed to 4.10 gears. Night and day difference. You can have the speedo recalibrated with or without a tune.
another good option COULD be; Suspension upgrade, some of the parts can be tuned more precisely to your driving, and weigh less (increasing power) or getting a new set of wheels, these can drop a ton of unsprung weight, which helps a ton with handling, weight, and... increases POWER. Those are the only other "intro" mods you can do. But, they arent adding power traditionally by increasing HP or Torque but rather using the Torque and HP you already have for more direct contact on the road instead of getting lost elsewhere.
Being a BMW fan I drove a white 2018 ss1le and I was just floored by the power and handling the handling was impressive!
As a 2014 SS1LE owner and 2018 ZL1 1LE owner, I am amazed every day at the torque and the drivability of these cars.
@@effyeadudemy favorite segments on car and driver is lightning lap, and when you look at the lightning lap times the Camaro is up there with the Porsche 911. The Camaros outperform their price bracket by an insane margin. I'm actually very confused, because everywhere I've looked the Camaro outperforms like crazy so I don't understand why this car doesn't get talked about more. It seems like people are talking about cars for the badge. I'm convinced that if you just could upscale a Camaro interior and change the badge, people would be gushing over this car
Long tube headers and tune is a good starting block for your mods.Then you can go either go N/A or power adder.
Ronald Croy CAI , headers, cat deletes and an E85 tune is great too. It's hard to stop modifying once you start.
I'd love to see a dealer try and deny me warranty work over an axle back haha
This is a great video! Awesome info man! Waiting for warranty to be done so I can start my build, cam swap, headers, exhaust, and pro charger!
+Lalo Coronel Nice
how much power would I get I take all the exhast from motor keep every thing on motor just take the cats to the end with nothing from motor to nothing
Only long tube headers will add power
Put headers, cat back, throttle body, and cai on my 10 Camaro ss. Got 20 hp gain to the wheels with tune. Spent about 5k all together but I had to get it tuned twice.
With my 17 ss I'm buying everything at one time and doing one tune. It'll take longer to buy everything but I'll save around 600 bucks. I think.
You should have gotten more then 20hp and 5k for 20 hp is ass. You can get a wet nitrous system for half and get a 100hp on tap
@@The412Devil that was years and 2 cam’s ago. Come to find out the place I went to weren’t the best at tuning Muscle cars. They don’t do them anymore. No more of that stuff for me. I drive too slow and there are too many assholes, (mopar people mostly), who think they’re suppose to drive like they’re at the track just going from light to light. I’m good.
Just bought a 2017 2ss! I love this car.....
CaptainAmerica me too it’s amazing
Just got a 2018 2SS. Love my car as well.
How's the cars holding up boys thinking bout getting a 2018 myself
Was looking into mods for when I was gonna go buy a 2ss but I think I rather just get a zl1 now instead.
I wonder why so many people are going with prochargers over turbos or twinscrew superchargers
It cuts out boost lag. also it can help more than a turbo at low RPMs. As far as Procharger over twin screw, its kinda cause Procharger is super reliable, super efficient, and pretty low profile in the engine bay. thats just my guess, its got brand loyalty.
Just bought a 2022 lt1 6.2l want to keep my warranty but when it runs out ill be upgrading all i can! Very informational video thanks!
What made you switch from Pro Charger to Whipple???
Also what do you think about the Pro Charger and what do you think about the Whipple
Loved the video, lot of info. I felt drastic change in performance after installation of VR active wing.
The msd atomic intake manifold I see making around 20-28 hp with around a gain of 6 on torque just bolting it on with no tune. I don't think I've seen someone lose torque without a tune.
What's his 0 to 60 and 0 to 100?
I have a 2017 Chevy SS I'm planning on getting the Roto Fav Cold Air Intake Borla Cat back and Kooks long tube heads what would be a good Tune for me to get?
i wanted to try out a active aero wing
So what do you recommend for a 2018 ZL1 for under 5k?
Please lethal do this for the Camaro v6 I really need help and I have a budget of $1000 but I want the best bang for my buck, please!
Camaro I second this. Please show some love for the little brother V6 LethalGarage!
We are the forgotten ones. See if he replies.
+Camaro I can do that
+Sandkei I never forget ;)
LethalGarage *calls over adrian*
Where did you get the hood for the picture in the thumbnail.
Don't forget to get some throttle body cleaner and clean the throttle body and flap good before you install a new cold air intake 👍
Thanks. Great video. Just got a 2016 V6 Manual
After watching this video, what about a turbo setup? Your thoughts?
Installing an aftermarket cam on an automatic 11’ SS with 64k miles on it.. would I need/want to get new lifters, springs and pushrods? Or what would you recommend?
I would say better tires first. These cars don't put down the power they have stock well.
@Gabe Armijo I 100% disagree. Bigger tires are always nice, but I’ve still go stock tires on my 2SS and traction has not ever been a problem. The 6th gen acceleration even when pushed hard is so controlled!
Bigger tires are heavy and this is rotational mass we are talking about which has a bigger impact than weight in the trunk per se would.
Bro I am a big fan I watch all your videos I really want a 6th gen camaro ss a8 is the car reliable ima keep it stock like any major issues?
Some have had issues with the transmission. But they have moved to the 10 speed now
@@Lethalgarage true but other then that everything is good?
Excellent video bro, great job in depth love it
I Lethal! I beleve you miss something, fire, i put the Granatelli Motorsports Coil-Near-Plug 0 Ohm resistance and the Malevolent 85KV Coil Pack on my Camaro SS 2016 and got good gain with it!! With your setup i expect over 30 hp/tq!!!! I hope you will try. Thanks
Where’d you get that custom engine cover??
Do you think I would need a tune if I ported my stock TB and swap my stock IM to a lt2 intake manifold?
Does this go far any camaro bc i got a 2019 2.0t
I have a question bro I have 2014 Camaro RS with Borla exhaust and K n E cold air intake but it doesn’t popping when down shifting?
helpful..thanx buddy.
Nice video. All sage advice man...
LOve the sound just alone would do me a slow ride down some back roads don't have to be fast all the time try it sometime windows down awesome..
Hi GUYS
HI HAVE A 2016 V6 and I installed new gm cai and new gm dual back axle exhaust system which sounds great do I have more power everything is still under warranty what else can I do
Need some advice don’t know much about cars
Cheers
Thank you for the Information.....can you recommend a Software Tune without a dyno test? I hate the taught of redlining the engine until it max's out the HP-Torque...Oh Man!
Hey man I just got a 2016 I put exhaust on it headers the roto fab cold air intake you recommended. I wanna get a cam. Any suggestions? How much is the labor
GM now offers long tube headers.
They have for a long time.
where did you find out that the procharger is CARB legal now? I can't find the confirmation anywhere online
I’m undecided to get a ss but man you talking down to us . Makes want get one
Hey lethal I noticed your carbon fiber bits under the hood looks nice did you do a video on that and the install??
LethalGarage's thoughts on 6.2 lt LT1 failures..
Haven’t seen or heard of that many
Did you do anything to your transmission since you've installed your procharger kit?
+Adem Hasanovic We tuned it
What’s up lethal. I’m about to order an CAI and kooksheaders. What tune should I️ get or do you recommend for most power gains?
A custom tune.
CAI without a tune will not increase power. The air/fuel mixture is controlled for optimum efficiency. The PCM only uses the volume of air needed. Forcing unneeded air in changes nothing
Nice video!!
+Montoya Gunn ty sir
What header and exhaust mod do you recommend?
Hey Lethal I have a 2015 Camaro SS and im trying to order parts and what not as little as a CAI to Long Tube headers I live in Cali so obiously I cant have it shipped to me because of CARB reasons do I really have to have it shipped to another state #ARIZONA and pick it up there???
This is my favourite car
I don't like E-85 my 07 Silverado started smoking. I stopped that crap. Been driving ethanol free gas. It stopped smoking.
I agree! More V6! Hey Adrian where you at! :D
He keeps crashing :(
Did you take the black cloth off of the underside of your hood ?
Just thought that was a heat shield on mine
great video👏
I have the 2017 50th anniversary 2ss, would the 50 state legal ProCharger be a good fit for a daily driver without any other mods? Of course with a Tune 😅 I know it's the most expensive part you talked about but would that be a good one-and-done for an everyday car? Please give me your thoughts. I know you no longer have this setup as you are full-blown race car now back again Id like to keep it as a daily driver. Thanks
Sure! Would be a nice increase of power without needing to upgrade anything else. But your capped at that point, would need fuel upgrades to go beyond.
@@Lethalgarage thanks for the reply, I'm hoping you guys have a Camaro meet up again soon as I like to go and hangout with fellow Camaro Drivers
What’s up Lethal. Got kooks long tube, roto fab cai, corsa axle back and flex fuel all tuned. Cars is makin decent power, but I’m looking to add more. Any other ideas besides going full super charger or procharger?
Jayy Capone More aggressive cam and tune.
Anyone have a suggestion for a good sounding exhaust system for a 2017 Camaro rs trying to find one on the cheaper side....
Why only the Gen 6, will this work for the Gen 5?? I have a 2SS with a 6.2L
MATT Where do you get your tune done?
If I’m going the whipple boosted route would a ported throttle body and intake manifold be a waste of money?
I would say yes to being a waste. Won’t use the intake with a blower. And I suggest a bigger TB over porting.
What lip and side skirts do you have?
For a 2017, you'll need 4 HP credits per vin. You also can't tune the automatic transmissions. You have to physically remove the TCM and send it to HP tuners and have them tune it to your specs. Manual transmissions can be tuned the the ODB.
+Wade Buckley 2016s everything is unlocked
LethalGarage Yeah, 2017 manuals are good to go. I've already tweaked a couple of things on my 17 ZL1.
+Wade Buckley nice
Great info
Best tuner for 16' ss?
Hi I know you have an automatic, but how about a video on swapping the stock manual shifter in a 2017 to the General Motors SHORT throw SHIFTER FOR THE ZL1? Maybe you know someone with an ss manual that would let you video the installation.....
+menstown Working on it
I have a Roto-Fab CAI, love it!
Matt does a pull change void the Warren ?
So I've been following Camero ZLS. He says you sponsored him . I'm not looking for a sponsorship. Just a review of my car .. I brought the Ams oil. I'm on my second case. That's what I was running in the 2018 1LT RS.
I sold it in May this year and got the 2022 LT1 RS In June .
I got a set of Chevrolet Jack Pad in my Amazon cart. Dm me some prices please..
Prices on what?
@@Lethalgarage the jack pads
@@yapdonavan128 I didn’t sponsor those to him. ZL1 Addons did.
Quick question i have stock 20's on my 6 gen and I wanted to get new tires but good all season tires . Which one do you recommend to get and what size with out doing any cutting or removing ?
Go with Continental Extremecontact DWS 06 or BF Goodrich G-FORCE COMP-2 A/S
shoulda done 2 vids one warranty one non warranty
I have a question, what does stage 1, stage 2, and stage 3, mean? what are the differences besides power?
+Sagi Skins basically going from street legal to no legal. ;)
Hi love your channel can you do a video on nitro on a 455hp camaro 2019
I’d need to have a car with nitrous.
I hope I might get a response. I know this vid was posted a while ago. I have a2015 camaro ss2ss. I am pricing some mods and want to make sure I won't be massively over paying. A shop quoted me 16k to install the following:
Pro charger p1x with helical gears(kit with intercooler)
Harmonic balancer for separate belt for SC
Long tube headers with cats
Dual disc clutch
Pillar mounted o2 and boost gauges
dyno tuned
That seems pricey.
LethalGarage what did you pay for yours?
ProCharger installed should be $8k, balancer a few hundred bucks, headers $1,200, clutch $2-3k - I'd say 12-13k max.
LethalGarage I guess I did forget to mention a few items. The zl1 fuel pump and bigger injectors than come with the base pro charger kit. Plus the gauges. Maybe a tad high but eh. Thanks for getting back to me.
How would you recommend shopping stuff like this.
Would someone call an installer in another state to get a second price?. I've only found two places in Maryland that install and tune cars on the regular...
.
I have camaro rs 2016 and I want to go crazy up to 550+hp what are you suggestions or steps to start with?
sulaiman alwardi buy a v8 🤦🏻♂️🤣
Exactly throw that piece of 💩 away get u a real car a SS
Is it best to install something like a supercharger after the car has at least 5 thousand miles?
+BIGROUND 720 If you want to make sure your car is good, sure. But it isn't required.
The pro charger I seen claims no tune needed on 7psi....
+tony G what????
LethalGarage I don't know you tell me when I ordered the kit that's what the Web page said I have no tune I'm getting 18 mpg and I have no issues
What mod was done before your pro charger? is your headers and stuff done already in this video? or stock headers and throttle body and exhaust?
What rear spoiler wicker bill are you using there?
That’s the ACS spoiler with a ZL1 Addons wicker bill
@@Lethalgarage 🤙🏻
Not sure where you saw that Chevy offers a cold air intake for the V8 (SS). In 2016 they said they were going to but I've been checking chevrolet.com for it and haven't seen it...I've gone aftermarket.
Steve M it’s there now
PC vs handheld tunes. Which is better?
Brent Garvey dyno
So will the tune for the Supercharger effect your smog test?
+prattspits No, not if it is tuned properly
Had a question, which lowering springs did you end up with using and I have a magnetic ride control did you put lowering springs or he kept it stock
I had the Eibach Pro Kit. But swapped back to stock for drag racing purposes
@@Lethalgarage so you recommend the eibach pro kit with the magnetic right control
Lethal I have a v6 and I changed the stock mufflers for the borla ones and the k and n typhoon cold air intake I wanna know if those mods will void my warranty. Thank u
They could depending on your dealership
I have a 6 gen and yes the dealer told me it would be void
What about water meth injection? Thoughts and ideas on it would be cool
Expensive, should only run the VP meth or equivalent. Gets power, but E85 can achieve the same results.
How do the transmissions hold up on the 6 gen with all the add ons you've done? Do you have to upgrade it as well?
Trans is still stock. It’s still alive currently ;)
LethalGarage that's awesome considering all the power you have thrown at it! I can't wait to get my camaro, hopefully this time next year!!
@@justinweng5079 did you get it? :)
Where did you get your carbon bits for your engine bay
Had the Phastek plates wrapped. A friend made the valve covers
Hey man I have a question and you might think it's dumb but on my 2016 Camaro SS it has a little dex cool bottle where you put anti freeze, am I supposed to pour some into it or what?
+Patrick Navarro ummm??? No?
LethalGarage do you know what I'm talking about man? Like it's a tiny tube with a cap that say dex cool, I noticed it when I put some antifreeze to the car and was wondering what it's for man I thought you might know more about it
I love it very good 😇
Hey will that bumper fit on a 2015?
No
On average what is the price of a tune?
+Craftsmansteve anywhere from $500 on up
LethalGarage I got a question , how does a MSD intake manifold , long tube headers , roto-fab intake , and E-85 sound like for mods ? Is the MSD manifold worth it with the headers and E-85 ? My budget is between $3000-$3500 , thank you as always
Sounds like a nice NA setup. I am thinking you will see 60-70rwhp increase
Probably won’t see any benefit to switching to e85 if you’re not boosted.
Not true. I gained 30whp above 91 octane on E85 + tune.
Awesome updates....thank you!!!!
Can anyone confirm if the CARB approval actually went through for the procharger kit? I have been trying to follow that for a while and didn't see it... Or if anyone just has the number that would be best (figure out what I could get away with, on other cars you can swap head units and some other things, and you can basically get away with it. Some kits even come with a CO number on any head unit you swap in.
+Mike Cirovic it's coming.
LethalGarage if I had a dime for every time a company said that! I'll cross my fingers though. Procharger is a much better setup than Maggie. Nice car man
Any thought on Mag Ride Control
+Dan O'Neill worth every penny. I really need to do a video on it
I'll second that comment Mat. Do a video on MRC!!!
Do you have to tune it everytime you do a mod?
Not every mod....
Can u do these mods with a auto? I have a ‘17
my car is an auto....
How much horsepower does yours have?
Not sure about at this point in time of the video, but now... about 1k rwhp
For the ported TB or intake manny do you need to tune?
Typically no
Thanks brotha!
