z51 up grades
hello to all i own a 2001 z51 mn6 car.This being my third corvette first a 1991l98,second a 1994zo7.my questions are as follows I recently purchased a new zo6 ti exhaust as i work in a local mercedesbenz dealer ship i have access to a lift i plan on installing it soon.Next i plane on purchasing oem new z06 rims and f1gs tires also to install at my dealership.I'm wondering if i will have a better ride because my run flats have such a stiff sidewall? I will also install the tire pressure sensors so as to not set a faultcode. As for induction work I also plan on getting a zo6 airbox a powerduct,zo6 mass airflow sensor,ls6 hot cam and last ls6ported heads.I plan on autocrossing this car as well as roadracing as much as I can will this combo make a difference?

Re: z51 up grades (z51mn64me)
Sounds like a good stepping stone. I'd look at replacement shocks also if your really into autocrossing to help out even more (imo).
Have fun with it :cheers:
Oh, ride and cornering are gonna feel like night and day difference after the new tires/ versus the runflats.
