ideas in improving sticking to the ground (diffuser, wing, pafdt)?
what ideas you have for a supercharged ZO6 to stick more to the ground, to avoid spinning?
car- 2007 zo6, camed, E-force supercharger, ERL block rebuild, 20" nitto invos on the back, AR headers/xpipe...car at the Dyno now, had some boost leak, but expected to make between 700-800 hp/tq to the ground. so I am looking to take advantage of all that power!
what are the advantages for using rear diffuser (from Breathless performance for example), or a wing (GT2 Carbon Fiber Active Racing Wing) or pafdt suspension?
do you think one of those, or combination of those will help me achieve that goal (down force)...not really looking for cornering, I dont go to track, just down force?
thank you in advance!

With 20" Nitto invos and 700-800 hp your best bet for less spinning is half throttle lol. On a more serious note I'd swap out to a 19 or 18in setup if you don't mind giving up looks

lol...the reason I put 20'' in the back was for that reason, thinking ahead of having more power to the car...but it looks like in the car world, 'the bigger is not better'....
I will check that out...so those things, diffuser, wing will not help right? only for tracking correct?

If you are just wanting something to keep it from spinning the tires, remove the supercharger and cam, and put a throttle stop on it. My car is stock and it will spin the tires almost at will. I can't imagine
700+ hp and trying to put it to the ground. Good luck.

Invos are CRAP... Get the NT05R and call it a day. I don't think they make 20's but it would be worth getting rid of the 20's for actual tires that work for you.
Also, you need a good suspension, call Anthony at LG, DONE.

I found some 20'' Nitto NT05R....I think I will just change the back tires for now with NT05R....
