Mods and Tune
Just had Vette Drs install some XSspeed LT's (from superman09), Vararam (byunspeed), and LS6 intake(cajun). I have a Corsa touring on it. When I bought the car from the previous owner, she had a Blackwing and tune. It made 301rwhp.
Now 368 rwhp 364 rwtq. Also has 342s and a 2800 Vigilante.
Hopefuly she will pull some low 12s

Yea; 63rwhp from headers and intake. Not often you can make more hp than a stock Z06 with a couple of minor bolt ons.
See what it does at the track.

Maybe Im missing something but isnt that a 67rwhp gain? I know its 4 more HP but damn add a pulley and you'd clear 70 with bolt ones lol

I don't think the manifold/intake will add much on the dyno so I never heard of LT's and a tune adding 50+ hp(I will give the intake and manifold the other 13hp) doesn't that just seem unusually high? I guess we will find out when you hit the track.
