    LSx Question?

    I just wanted to get the forum's opinion on a flat plane LS variant crank engine. I'm a novice when it comes to the inner workings of an engine (lift, cams, valve timing, etc...) and how high HP is gained in an NA motor. What intrigued me about the flat plane crank is how lively it made the...

    All Porsche powertrain in SLC?

    A search never really answered this question so I figured I'd post it. Has anyone ever thrown both the engine and gearbox from say a 996/7 GT3 into the back of an SLC? The sound and performance of that 3.8L flat six is astonishing in my opinion and they seem to run about the time an infant takes...

    Does anyone have DCT in their SLC?

    I've been in the market for a BMW M3 for a while as my Z is getting up there in the miles. I decided to research both the 6 speed and DCT and I must say I've fallen in love with the concept of having a DCT in a track day vehicle or DD.

    An SLC at Butler Tire here in Atlanta. Guy buy the name of Bob (insert last name I forgot here). Was a pretty cool dude though. Knew a lot about the car and spoke glowingly of both Fran and the car. Seeing the SLC in person does this car much more justice than any photo can replicate. I knew the...

    YouTube - 359 km/h (224 mph) G-Power Hurricane RS BMW M5 Touring GPS-verified on PerformanceBox The S85B0 is probably one of the most difficult (electronically) engines to work with when it comes to tuning and aftermarket parts. Somehow the guys over at g-power have cracked that code. I...

    1175hp/1100TQ for 36k?

    Was just pricing out LS7s when I ran across a few of the typical youtube dynos for LS(x) engines. The general cost from what I've seen is $12k-$16k depending on the vendor. Summit Racing is 30 minutes from where I live so that would be an ideal supplier. Here's the but though... I ran across...

    Full Carbon Fiber Body

    First I would like to say Hi to everyone on this great forum... been a lurker for a while and between this and the GTM forum I've seen a lot of great work from the respective members. The moment I saw an SL-C it was "love at first sight" though lol. Now that that's out of the way... Has anyone...
