Alright, curiosity has gotten the best of me and I would like some knowledge dropped on my noggin. Yeah I play around with you LS guys but most of you know I am just playing and that I really dont have anything against the cars.
Did some research and found I really like how second gens are equipped. As we all know, the search function sucks so a few questions I had I cant find answers on and after going back several pages I figured I would pull my stupid questin card. :lol:
I am just interested in second gen V8 LS cars. I like the cooled seats and dont want to deal with a hydraulic cooling fan.
So here are my questions:
1. Is there any decient gains to be had from exhaust and intake mods?
2. I assume there are no off the shelf tunes and it needs to be dyno tuned?
3. What are the major things to look out for on them?
4. Why do so many have cat issues?
5. Can a factory NAV system be a plug and play ordeal on a car that only has the 8 speaker 6 disc setup? I realize the amps and drivers are different but can the deck and nav unit interface with the lessor system?
6. How good is the THX system? IE if I dont want to add a system is the THX system significantly better then the 8 speaker system?
7. Why are you so fanatical about your LS? I mean what makes it so good? Fast, handle well, comfertable etc etc.
8. What does the Sport pack give you?
9. Besides body stuffs, what does the LSE have over a regular car? Isnt it the same as a fully optioned car just with one more letter in its name?
I think thats it. I had a 2000 LS V6 as a demo car back in 2000 and it was alright, kinda slow. Other then that I have only driven an LS V8.... 2002 I think... for about a mile. It was kinda haggered and made noise so I wasnt impressed but going through the picture thread here I see many good looking ones here.
