Re: My new 2001 SS SLP.
As for what SLP adds to the standard Z28 or Trans Am/Formula, the most notable items are a functional cold-air inlet system (Ram Air on the Pontiacs) and 17-inch wheels and tires. From there, optional content on the SLP cars is extensive if not somewhat confusing. To try and put a finer point on it, however, we'll note that '01 SS models can be ordered with a custom grille with the SS logo, a new rear fascia treatment that includes center-mounted exhaust and rear ground effects, either the 10-spoke '00 style, or five-spoke '99 style wheels in chrome plating, BFG Comp TA KD 275/40ZR17 tires and a choice of two suspension upgrades. Both apply to the Chevy and Pontiac, and offer larger 35mm antisway bars up front (up from 32mm), while the rear bar is enlarged from 19 to 21mm. The Bilstein package includes SLP progressive-rate springs and Bilstein shocks.
A bit more radical is the 1LE package, which includes beefier upper and lower control arm bushings up front, in the rear control arms and in the rear panhard rod. The 1LE setup also includes Koni shocks.
An optional exhaust system on both cars adds 10 horsepower to the picture for a total of 335, while an Auburn limited-slip differential is also available that includes an aluminum axle cover.
Ok, so the ZR1 wheels were sort of an "option". But where is the RAM AIR system??? Was that an option too?
If I were you, I'd pay that $51 bucks and get the specs from SLP.
