Finally saw the typical gains on these...

Shorties: 7-9 HP and usaully will not throw a CEL

Long Tubes: 20 - 30 HP and usually will throw a CEL.

Find any dyno post links with before & after? I can't see doing shorties -- the LT gains are good for a V6.

Of course, the other $3 Million question is, what about the 2012 Camaro?!

ya and add another $500 for tune and say goodbye to cel and your wallet i'll stick with the shorties and save the $500

What is the typical CEL codes folks are getting? If just for the post-cat O2 Sensors -- that is easily remedied...

$500 for 7 RWHP is a bad investment.

i'm getting doug thorley shorties for $300 new and no tune needed = $500 savings minimum.Getting long tubes appx $700 or more plus the tune your talking about $1200 to gain additional 10hp... now thats a bad investment

$300 for 7-9 is not so hot either. You can get 18 from just a tune.

better than $1200...remember there's a reason why we bought the v6

[TonyNo]

Yeah, it was the coolest car for about $25k.

You could see a gain in that range for about $150 with a ported throttle body.

Much cheaper, easier to install as well.

Just throwing that out there.

Sure, I just meant that you can get 18 HP from a $400 tune compared to the 7-9 from shorties for $300. Twice as much power for only 33% more money.

Plus, better throttle response!

aren't those a scam? i've read some articles that those don't do jack

They do add some power....how much exactly is the question. What they do add without question is throttle response.
