Default Did My First Mod

Broke the Ice and did my first Mod, Donaldson Blackwing air filter. The car is defiantly breathing better; the stock filter seemed a little restrictive. The Z also seems to wind up a lot easer now. Doing the CF Powerduct next . :party:

Does the black wing mod, affect the manufact. warranty. How easy is it to do. How much horse does it add.

Sorry, but new Z owner - only 600 miles, but always looking for more power.

If it were me Bookie I would get some more miles on that sucker. But the filter is pretty easy to install. I don't think it effects the Warranty and you could always put the old one back on before you bring it in. :cheers:

:thumbs: Z OH 6 nice wheels :thumbs:

I had a blackwing on my cp. I may put one on the Z. It changes the sound and the seat of the pants feel of the car. :chevy
