The Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) Show in Las Vegas brings all of the industry bigwigs to one convention center for four days of badass builds and automotive debauchery. Of course, SLP was there to take it all in with a display of our very own, complete with two stunning SLP-equipped builds: The 2015 Z28 […]
Design, calibration, engineering, overall performance, dyno testing – these are just some of the things that we have our hands full with here at SLP. And while we love and enjoy what we do every day, sometimes it’s nice to grab the keys to a development vehicle and raise a little bit of hell. So […]
If you’ve been following along the past few weeks, you’ll know that our 2013 SLP development Camaro was recently equipped with a new crate engine from Chevrolet Performance: the LSX376-B15.

But few have the time, money or ability to test these claims on a dyno. At SLP our products are designed and engineered using OEM data and […]
