As I understand it, it has been done and yields some gains (20-30whp IIRC depending on octane), but they are minimal compared to the cost...
The cost of the CJ IM itself isn't much but it's not compatible with the 350 TB, so you need to buy the specific TB it works with... If I recall right...
FWIW - IIRC all 17+ Camaros are covered for track use - if I'm wrong then it's just ZL1s and 1LE pack cars. GM won't cover Vettes tho (cuz the Z06 overheats lol)
13 years isn't enough time for a 500 to become a collector car, especially not a modern one. Ford built TONS of GT500s since 2007, so it wasn't a hard to find car to begin with and it wasn't long enough of a time that too many were crashed/hi miles/etc to necessitate a high value. Not to mention...
Admittedly I bought my car (at least in part) because I anticipate it to hold value... I didn't buy it and then say I expect/want it to.
That and I buy/sell so often that I'm pretty in tune with the market
It'll be way less valuable because of volume. roughly 10% or less are R models.
I agree that the 350s in 19+ will be more valuable than 16-18 MY 350s, but they simply won't hold value as well as Rs because of rarity.
Additionally, As the car ages, collect-ability will matter more than how it...
B-Line wants $1k for resonated test pipes? .... Hard Pass
Can buy M2 headers (made to order in the USA and known good fitment) for much less - about half.
Hell, big brand headers aren't much more. If I'm spending $1k I'd just buy M2 headers and pay for the install. My goal was to buy something...
This is the main thing I was looking for.
I did LT headers on my '17 Camaro SS 1LE along with a filter and tune only to find a friend did cat deletes, a filter and tune and made withing 6hp of my car but spent about $1k less in parts and a way easier install, so I was hoping this might be the...
Curious if anyone has done just deletes and what the dyno difference was with a tune?
In my experience with some other modern V8s, deleted cats (with a tune) gave 75-95% of the gains of headers at a fraction of the cost (not to mention a much easier install), so I'm just wondering if there's...
Thanks all - ordered the BMR bolts last night.
I want the -2.2 for now as I'll be running PSC2s and they tend to like less camber than some other R-Comps.
If/when I want to go with NT01s, SC3Rs, R888Rs, I'll look into more camber with the bolts or buying plates.
I'll also just be leaving it...
So after having a shop try to do the factory track alignment on my '19 R, they were only able to get -1.8L/-1.9R out of the car.
Funnily enough they got the rear camber just fine.
I looked into why even with adjustable strut tops they couldn't get more and found this thread -...
I apologize for devolving this thread into a "350/R vs Mustang" debate.
Wasn't my intention at all.
I've owned 80+ vehicles and honestly they're all just cars... all of them. Even the stuff like a PTS 911 GT3 Touring or something that is technically 1 of 1.
Yeah I'd be unhappy if someone...
Sure, but it doesn't mean it won't make potential buyer's concerned or annoyed enough to not buy the seller's car or perhaps not buy one at all.
Value of the beholder is in the eye of the beholder.
Actual value can be shown by edmunds, nada guides, or similar cars found on autotrader.
People...
I ran into so much of this when I was buying... GT350 owners are a weird bunch that way IMHO. I ended up taking a risk buying my 350R without driving it. As I only was able to drive a 350 (non-R) and that was only because it was used and at an Alfa Romeo/Maserati/Jaguar dealer so it wasn't a big...
