HAHA...finally a good tech post and no responses....should have asked about air cleaners to get 3500 responses.
Where are all the tuners in the know?
Anyway..adjustable shocks, no front sway bar, loose rear spring for the squat down, ET streets, and weight reduction in the front (skinnies, drag battery that weighs 12 lbs-or relocate it to the rear).

Tires and a tune...
Lose the torque management with the tune, and stickier tires should help a lot... I am having a problem with traction myself, I think I will be getting slicks and gears before next season...

Who's really confused?Do you really think a C6 with compromised tires and rear suspension is better than a stock one?

If your going to put slicks, upgrade the rear or you will be towing it home. I would take the weight penalty for a steel rear that won't crack. Especially if you turn off TM and increase power with slicks. These cars are not meant to be 1/4
