Default Nitrous in C6Z

Seems like very few are doing nitrous on the C6Z - at least compared to the C5Z. My impression is that a lot more C5's had a nitrous kit compared to the C6 Z. [my C5Z had one].

Anyone else think the same? I'm cammed and thinking about a small-medium shot [100-150].

Hey man! LTNS!

Lots of us are running Nitrous on our C6Z's. I've installed SEVERAL kits.

Get this... Heads, cam, headers (with obligatory tune..) and a 175 shot I made over 1,000 lbs-ft of torque with my C6Z (and about 760 RWHP)!!!

I would advise you to spray the heck out of your C6Z!!!!

Haha - I like your style. I've got a Lethal cam in mine with all the supporting mods. Made 556 on a Mustang Dyno. Sounds like a 175 shot might be just what I need

All right - that's all the convincing I need. I had a wet shot on my C5Z. What's the most popular kit for the C6?

I think it's just because there are more C5 Z06s, that's all. the percentage is probably pretty close. we have some killer packages just for the C5/C6 Z06s if your interested. that is dedicated kits specific to thses models.

We sell quite a few kits for the C6 Z. The most popular being the dry plate kit with Interface controller. Makes for a fun ride

Maybe its because the power of the C6 is adequate. The C5 needs a little kick. As a former SRT4 owner, I say that the C6 was harder to keep up with, the C5 I beat Many times.

What supporting mods do you need for a cam?, seems to me that a cam is a mild modification and wouldnt need other supporting stuff.

Standard stuff - CAI, ported TB, ported intake, headers, tune, etc. Just parts to open the intake/exhaust to move as much air as possible. I wouldn't exactly call it a 'mild' mod...and I [personally] wouldn't do a cam without at least CAI, headers, and tune.

Additionally, when I did my cam I upgraded the springs and rockers.

Hey Robert, do you have a kit with tiny bottles that can be hidden easily?

VetteAir / Carlos installed mine and no problems. I have 10,000 miles on ram and all is fine. I don't track the car and never side step.
Window switch for NOS is set at 3500 on and 6700 off.
Not sure if i will purchase Ram again...depends on how long this one holds together.
