Re: 2012 Caprice LSA Build - Boost District - G8 LSA Serpentine (6 rib) Kit - DOD - Cam

We got it tuned and it made 505RWHP. When I picked it up/on the ride home I had issues with: -Check engine light came on -Went...

WTB: 6.0 A6 Engine/Trans Wire Harness (2012)

I would like to buy a replacement wire harness for my 2012 caprice PPV (6.0). I believe I have a wire pinch/rub through in mine.

If anyone is parting out a car or has an extra, please let me know.

Re: 2012 Caprice LSA Build - Boost District - G8 LSA Serpentine (6 rib) Kit - DOD - Cam

Looks and sounds nice, what is the exhaust setup that you did looking to do something similar. It is a stock exhaust with Solo axle back muffler deletes. Still has cats, resonators, pup mufflers, etc, just the rear mufflers deleted. It's very subtle. Quiet, but makes the right noises when you're on...

Re: 2012 Caprice LSA Build - Boost District - G8 LSA Serpentine (6 rib) Kit - DOD - Cam

I went with the 6 rib setup because it was a little cheaper ( i think). I had done a 6 rib setup on my camaro when I did an lsa swap for it as well, so I was more familiar with it. We ended up having to buy the G8 water pump (since the kit needs the top rad hose inlet/outlet on the other side), so i...
