Hello all,

I have a 2009 ls3 Z51 A6 NPP corvette. I already have a Air intake, Tune and will be installing Kooks Headers and X Midpipes soon and as near as I can Tell i will be putting about 420 RWHP on the road. Will adding the headers put too much stress on this transmission? Anybody know what the Transmission is rated for?

Thanks,

Andrew

You can break it with stock HP if you slap on a set of slicks and launch it.... Otherwise for regular street driving most tuners claim anything up to about 600WHP is OK.
