That's the thing, most people are concerned with Dyno HP #'s, they always forget about weight. Stock for Stock the underrated 390HP Terminator is not faster than C6 Vette. Over all the C6 is more efficient it's a hard car to beat.

They tune well, they are real conservative out the box. I got my tune from a tuner on a dyno to check the AF. I don't know if they have a handheld available for the 06 C6, last i checked they were working on a Predator hand held.

Let me know if you have any other questions.
I hear ya on the weight issue...Cobras are pigs, but the Gt500 is the ultimate fatboy.
