INSTALLED - Z06 E Force
I just picked up my 2008 Z06 last night from the Tuner. Added an A & A radiator, billet harmonic balancer and E Force Supercharger. Dyno shows 605 rwhp and 561 rwt. Beautiful install, looks completely factory under the hood. Had the coil covers powder coated in torch red. It became obvious on the way home, I am going to have to relearn how to drive. No way I ever punch it in first or second gear, unless I want to just be along for the ride.

Never did like those heavy cast aluminum covers; more weight and more heat soak all built up into one. But you found a way to make them even less appealing.
I'd take them off and maybe get a coil relocation kit or some of those billet valve covers that are always being advertised here; it'd look a lot better and run cooler.
