Seems the clutch in the 2013 6MT is the weak point in a tune. Anyone have any decent aftermarket options? Or has anyone done the upgrade to the 2015 setup. appears all the part numbers changed then, I'm assuming for the added torque.

Anyone with the 6MT have an aftermarket clutch?

ATS Sway Bars
Hi All,
2013 3.6L RWD ATS sedan here, with Fe2 suspension. I have been looking at upgrading the suspension for a while now, and I would like to start with sway bars, as the upgrade from fe2 to fe3 has seen mixed reviews. I would like to get the Bwoody rear sway as it seems to be the thickest and well-rated. As for the front sway bar, I think I have the option of D3, eibach, or ATS-V.
I have seen a few instances of OEM GM stabilizer bars and sways on Ebay and elsewhere for the 2013 ATS, but some say coupe specifically, and some make it seem like they may only fit the FE3 suspension.
My question really is what compatible front sway bar is guaranteed to fit and see a performance increase, and would anyone try to talk me out of the bwoody rear?http://bwoodyperformance.com/proddet...?prod=270.5001

Cadillac ATS Rear Axle, Independent vs Solid
Hi All,
I was asked recently by a local shop that will be installing my Nos kit whether the 2013 ATS 3.6L premium has a solid rear axle or if it is independent. I cannot seem to find positive confirmation on this.
thanks,
Devin

info on Downpipe with Diablo tune
Looking for any information on both installed at the same time. I tried to read through the Diablo tune thread...
fell in love with the sound of an ats with a catless downpipe. I want the benefits of Diablo tune as well. You know, cake and it eat too. I understand the tune is for no mods but if anyone has tried id love to know. thanks

3.6 LFX catch can
Just interested to see if anyone here has successfully stuffed a catch can in the engine bay of one of these. I have one sitting on my work bench, but unsure of where to mount it. There doesn't seem to be an ideal location,... away from a major heat source and for easy draining.
Most of the Camaro guys mount it right up front on the passenger side, but I don't feel there is enough room there with our smaller platform. Thoughts?

2013 ATS lux 2.0T feels Boaty
Hey guys I am new on here. But I wanted to see if anyone else has had this issue or if this is just how the car is. I have installed the Eibach Sport Spring kit and I love that it closed the excessive wheel gap. I was hoping it would also cure the problem that it feels boaty over bumps. for instance when I go over a bump the whole car raises and lowers 2-3 times. would I need to replace my struts and shocks? it also feels almost uncontrollable if I am going around a turn and hit a bump or the road dips. any thoughts?

Trifecta Tune Sale
Hey guys,
Im still in the market for a tune and saw on their website tunes for our cars are on sale. I think they only do this once a year and dont think the ATS was on the sale list last year. Tunes starting @ $349. A friend uses Trifecta on his Cruze and has nothing but good things to say about them.
Any input from users here?

max tire height
Hey guys,
I just picked up a 13 ATS 3.6 RWD Premium... so far it's a blast to drive.
I'm looking to pick up a set of wheels and snow tires off craigslist and wanted to know if they'll fit, since I can't find the info anywhere.
They're 225/50/R18s instead of the normal 40 sidewall on the 18s. I know this will add 1.8" to the height of the wheel/tire, but will this fit the wheelwell, or am I screwed? The wheels are 18x8s that are 5x115, so I know those will work. But will the 50 sidewall work, or do I need to keep looking?
Thanks
jim

Pfadt Performance Package
So I am new to the ATS, but awhile ago I had stumbled upon this company and their performance packages. I had quickly disregarded it at the time though because I hadn't anticipated falling in love with the ATS as much as I have.
Fast forward to today, I have this 20132 ATS 2.0T AWD and it really wants some performance added to it...so I reached back into my memory bank and remembered this company. Upon clicking, I find that it's impossible to find the package.
Anyone have any insight? Did they stop making the package? Did something go wrong? Am I just looking in the wrong place?

2015 Stock Muffler Exhuast Leak, common?
Any one else form an exhaust leak on the "suitcase" muffler (single pipe back to 1 muffler) ? This cold Canadian morning i noticed a wet spot under the car in addition to the 2 behind the tailpipes. So i poked my head under the car and can see a steam of exhaust shooting straight at the ground from the middle of the bottom of the muffler. Any one else have this happen to their 2015 (or any other year)? The car is going to the dealer tomorrow. Ideally they do more than "Band-aid" it / what is the normal protocol for exhaust leak fix under warranty ? I'd like to think new muffler at a minimum.
Thanks in advance!
Thanks in advance!

Muffler Options for 3.6L
Hey everyone,
I am sure this has been posted a million times but I am looking for muffler options for my 3.6L AWD to get a deep throaty sound. I don't want a loud cabin though. Any recommendations for a good setup? Xpipe + muffler + res delete etc..
I've seen a few with Dynomax.

TRIFECTA T30.1 tune for 2014 ATS 2.0T
Hey guys! I'm brand new to this whole tuning gig. That last thing I did like this was when I chipped my 87 Monte Carlo SS! That being said, I'm looking for a bit of info.
I've been looking at different tunes and have settled in over the TRIFECTA T30.1 tune. I'm looking for feedback from anyone that's used it, and is it even worth the $4xx they're asking.
I have ZERO interest in a new DP or exhaust, etc. at this time, but want more umph. Pros? Cons? Better solutions in the same pricing area?
I thank you all in advance!

ATS 3.6 - 93 octane or E85 flex fuel tune
Hi,
Has anyone made a 1/4 mile pass with a RWD 3.6 ATS with the stock tune and then a tune optimized for 93 octane?
Follow-up question: Is there a general consensus on the best tuning software to integrate a flex-fuel setup (ie. so ECM can interpolate between 93 octane and E85 based on the ethanol sensor feedback)? HP Tuners?

Another one bites the dust
So on christmas eve in the middle of nowhere driving to my grandmother's I destroyed the number 3 piston/valves and scored the cylinder walls really good. To my surprise my warrenty was good until the 31st except I have/had a tune so the cost is mine to pay. I am thinking about just towing the car home and buying something else due to the potential costs of of replacing/repairing my ats. Anyone have any input on this maybe someone who has had to pay for an engine replacement.
