Hello from the Space Coast! Howdy all!
Thought I'd get an account here since I'm moving more forward on mods for my car. I'm Eric, I own a 2011 Chevrolet Caprice 9C3 PPV with some basic mods here in East Central Florida by the Kennedy Space Center. I've done a Rotofab CAI and axle-back SLP Powerflo setup so far (that had to be modded to fit the PPV). I have HP Tuners coming for the car, looking soon at doing the 3.45 mod to the rear end and having a decent tune put in. AFM is still running right now, but that will shortly change (yeah, it drones in 4cyl mode). When Kooks finishes their headers for the PPV I'll be putting on a set of their 1 7/8" product (no, the G8 headers won't work on one side - there's an oil cooler in the way!) and finishing off the exhaust.
The Caprice is very probably going to be the poor man's SS down the road. I also operate the web support forums for the privately owned Caprice PPV. It's hard finding individual PPV owners but we're gaining slowly..... Look forward to some good times as the mods grow...
Thanks
Eric

Yes it is. It comes with a L77 (does E-85) and a 6L80 tranny. Stock they are geared out at 2.92 with 18 inch wheels, but I'm in the process of changing mine to the 3.45 Camaro rear diff.
