Z06 power upgrade
More Performance installed the following recently with good results:
3 STock 2004 Z06s, mileage between 2,000 and 4,000,were chasis dyno'd at between 340 and 345 rwph.
Mods:
1. Camshaft, custom grind.
2. Kooks headers and y pipe without cats. (off road)
3. Vararam intake.
4. Chasis dyno and tuned.
5. "Heads were not touched".
After mod, chasis numbers were 410-415 rwhp.
Z06s are road raced and kicking butt.

I own, me and the bank, a 2002 Z06, and with Mike's advice, the heads are good enough. So, the heads were not touched except for valve springs, retainers. Mike, More Performance, does not want to port these heads, leave them alone and get the torque/hp from other sources, cam, tuning, etc. for the daily driver, occasional road course, strip.
Personally, I want to drive my z06 to the NC mountains and beaches with decent gas mileage. Thats the beauty of the package, half race car/half daily driver. You can go too far if you want a nice ride to work/trip is the point.
