    My 2009 GM project

    Made a video of how my 2009 now goes, stops and turns. Only things left are upper and lower control arms in rear. Springs all around are the standard "Ultimate" GM's. I like having greater wheel travel with the softer springs, and tying it all together with shocks and sway bars. All the mods are in my sig.

      It has the 2.73's. The premium fuel tune with the modified shift points really wake it up.

          Nice work. 3.27's or 3.55's would be the next step I would assume? Doing the J-mod?

              Not sure if gears will be a problem with warranty. My HyperTech tuner will take care of the difference in gearing, but I return the pcm to stock to take it in. The car will be coming into the dealership with codes thrown? with the standard pcm program? Jmod IM not sue if I want to chance opening all that up under warranty. Will stick with it the way it is for a few years. Better tires when I scrub these ones off.

                          Do you still have the 05+ CVPI MAF laying around, or did you chuck it?
