Default Next Z06 Mod?

Intake? Done
Exhaust? Done
Headers? Done
Shifter? Done

What should I do now? I'm not doin tires yet because I'm gonna replace all four in the spring of next year. Otherwise, what mods are there than can liven up the car? I want more go for this thing, but won't be doing h/c or blower or anything. I've never really seen anything after what I've already done give a substantive power gain. Anyone got any advice before the year runs out? :cheers:

Your exhaust isn't done until you have long tube headers and an X-pipe.

I found a partition to be a very useful mod. It cuts way down the rear end noise, and keeps things from rolling around.
