Ready to Mod
I'm new to the C6 discussion, my previous car was a 04 ZO6 Z16....
Okay, looks like I could get my new C6 coupe this week & I'm ready to modify
The car will definetly have the auto 6 speed.
Could be Z51 but not sure yet & if not I will want to upgrade shocks, sway bars, springs, etc....
Now, what do you guys reccomend for rwhp increases, probably within $4,000 or less to get started & hopefully keep me happy for a while.
thanks for the help

3,300 for 55 rwhp, sounds good

Not sure. Since it is not even finished for the 05's I would expect quite awhile. Not to mention that I believe the 07's will also be different being that they will be fully OBD III compliant if I am not mistaken.

There is only one out there with the exact colors I wanted (artic white/red) that hadZ51 but that delaership will not release it to my dealership, so I was looking into non Z51, but decided thats not for me.
So my car I get tomorrow will be Machine Silver, Titanium Gray, 3LT, MXO, Z51, NAV, Xm, On Star
thanks,
