Default Looking for parts

Ive been looking for some time now where to find performance parts for my 07 GXP. So far not much luck. Can anyone point me to somewhere to get parts. Ive really been looking for some cams also...

And some ideas for some higher number please. Not sure what kind of power adders there is for this car.

What did you search for? Because I can Guarantee if you type in cam, turbo, supercharger, or even mods in the search field for this section of the board it will net you results. Your gonna need an idea of what your looking for before searching as it will obviously help narrow your search.

Making more power is relative to how much you ultimately want, or how fast you want to go in a drag race. From there a list of items can be developed to get you there.

It's a pump, so just like any other engine out there the more efficient you can make it, the more power you will make. And it's LS based so a lot of parts can be made to work in these cars.

I'm working on a "store" with a few guys that'll have links to both OEM / Replacement and Aftermarket / Performance-oriented parts for W-Bodies with LS4s. I'm also working on getting various folks, organizations, etc. who have special areas of expertise and interviewing them. The resulting collection ought to spread some serious knowledge around.

The site is getting ready to launch and should be ready in a week or so. I'm hoping that it'll be a good resource for the LS4 community.

If you're interested, I'll PM you with information when the site goes live. At the start, there will be about 30..40 parts listed. I'm hoping to grow that list into some pretty specific areas, but at some point, I need to get something up and running.

You can buy just about every aftermarket part conceivable. You just don't have many choices on differentiation.

Well i google searched and i tried the sponsors on the right. I looked in quite a few of those but couldnt find anything for my car. I also tried ebay with not much results.

Some of the first things im looking for are cams, K&N intake, exhaust and tune. Then probably headers, pulleys etc..

My first goal is to hit 400HP, then ill set another goal. I read on another forum that the tr220 cams will put you about 350? What would be the best cams? Are all of the "LS" Parts compatible or only some of them? Ive also seen here that the ls6 intake will fit the ls4...

Sorry for all the questions fellas...

As others have said you really need to search.

If you want over 400HP to the wheels you will probably need to go turbo.
