I'm just curios but does HP Tuners have the tuning software ready for this platform already or how are ya'll tuning these heads and cam packages.
I ask this because I thought it was rumored that the ECU would be encrypted or difficult to tune due to the direct injection in these engines??

Why did y'all skip the early stuff?
Dyno/track results
Tune
Intake
Catback
Catback/or x
Headers
Just nice to see what bolt on cars will do before throwing big performance at them.

Because none of those parts were available when we started tear down last week. We have headers coming through the door this week and our cold air intake is being designed and built as we speak. Dont know of any other CAI that is ready yet. There isnt really a need for a catback unless you want alot of noise.
We did a tune only and it picked up 15 rwhp.
We are testing parts that WE developed, and helped develop

I get that, but takes 10 min swap cai, do a pull make a thread, let the car cool down slap on next bolt on.. Repeat all bolt ons.

Remember all of the leg humpers that came around when the new 5.0s went 11s then 10s and 9s?
Same will happen for the first shops to do such with the corvettes and LMR appears to be taking the lead.

One piece at a time fellas, this is not something to rush. Its how these guys make their living, and a pretty decent one at that Im willing to bet. They are and have always been the leader in the market for mods to the latest models which means new development. I've worked in product development before (non automotive) its a very tedious and sometimes long process to make sure everything is perfect.
Those headers look sick, that thing will be huffin now!!

Here is our Stage 1 Heads/ Cam Package. This cam is our "Stealth" cam for people who want the power but dont want to draw any attention to it. This is the smallest cam we offer for these cars. Still retains the factory AFM and DOD for great gas mileage. This is through factory exhaust manifolds, cats, and exhaust.
We have plenty more testing to do with our next few larger camshaft grinds after we install 1 7/8" headers and catless x pipe. so stay tuned!
