Maybe this time I'll ask if the warranty is still good.

Be careful taking it to the dealer...I read on here that if you tune your car you void your warranty...and, it might cause your exhaust valves to break!
CONGRATS!! We all share in the joy of a goal being set and met. Thanks for sharing.

Yes.
But do not street race or you will get banned by the powers that be.
Do you guys have inspections in OH? My buddy in Sweden is getting ready to take his supercharger off his Vette again for his annual inspection.
He only gets to use the car for 5 months and he has to do that each year. I told him to retire to FL where we have no such nonsense.
I was looking at your website just now...wow you'd have a hard time if you lived in Sweden!

Awesome. Quick question for you. Im in the middle of my build and I am looking down the road to my wheel/tire selection. I see you are running 15" wheels. What are the smallest wheels that will fit over rear brakes? These 15" wont will they? Ive never actually checked. If it wont fit, what did you do about rear brakes, remove and plug or put different brakes on it?
Thanks,
Josh

Now I run the 15" wheel over Stock C6 Brakes (not Z06 brakes) on a LG Motorsports Spindle kit. The kit was a really nice piece and bolted right up. If you get the LG Motorsports spindle kit you can still run stock C6 brakes and fit a 15" wheel when you race, an put a 18-20" wheel on for the street without it looking like crap.
Hope that helps.
