Default numbers are just that, numbers

Stock; RWHP=340
RWTQ=340
Rated hp=400/400TQ.

C6 Z51 Speed; Mine, Kooks,magnaflows,160 stat, mod air box, and tunning
RWHP=390
RWTQ=380
Computed Flywheel HP 458.8HP
New Z06
RWHP=425
RWTQ=403.75
Rated hp= 500
Note most of the stock C6's have been dynoed at about 352RWHP so the rated hp is a little higher than advertised. I would expect the same for the Z06.
