Got my valve springs replaced. While I was there, I had the shop give me a base dyno run. 356 at the wheels.

I also tried to capture the sound. This is stock exhaust.

I would have thought a little more HP with Headers on a 2003 Z06.. It may have just been the dyno.. I've witnessed all kinds of crazy numbers on different dynos.. Sounds great!

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to insinuate that I have headers. Complete stock exhaust.

Looks like your car is still running strong ! ! !

Drove mine to the gym. I'm going to start getting it out of the garage a little more, I've been having the itch to sell it and buy something else. Hopefully driving it more will subdue the new car craving lol

Brey Krause bar I picked up here in the fs section. It was local, it was $250,... I owned it 1 hour after seeing the ad. The extinguisher used to be in my boat, but I went to a different setup there. Livorsi Marine has some pretty trick mounts for these little extinguishers. Here's a pic of the ext and mount:

Opinions on placement?
I'm not in love with it, but it is very convenient, and within easy reach.

Cool, thanks man...I need to get a harness bar and that's where I'll put the extinguisher as well I think.

Washed and waxed it. Got it into the garage just a few minutes before a storm hit and dropped some hail on us.
