Just traded my Imp SS in for a 2012 Silverado 4x4. It has the 4.8L in it, but feels so sluggish compared to the SS.

Congrats, me i didn't want the 4.8L so it took me a while to find the 5.3L used.Wish I would have found a 6.0 or 6.2 over the 5.3 but I'm happy!

I used my tuner on the truck to help the trans shift better, which helped a bit. Still feels a bit sluggish even though it has 295hp, but then again I'm use to the ImpSS power. I have the regular cab and short bed model, has a nice stance to it and came with the off road tires so it stands a bit taller than the standard trucks.

I have a buddy that had a rcsb 4.8, with headers, exhaust, cold air intake, and a tune shaved 8 to 10 truck lengths of his 0-100mph. Idk anything about superchips? He had a Zippy HPtuners tune. Zippy is a member here and a moderator on SilveradoSS.com. Zippy is to trucks as Lew is to LS4s.
