Installed Z06 swaybars
Had my Z06 swaybars installed today on my 06 A6, it sure feels better in the turns. Next will come shocks. I have a base 1LT, with just a Vararam and B&B route 66's. I am gonna go all out on the mods and do headers, LS3 heads and a cam.

You might want to think about switching out the springs too. They'll balance out the swaybars. Right now, you probably have a bit of oversteer. Be careful getting on the gas when your turning as the back end can come out now.
Have fun!

That is why the Z06 and Z51 have the same front, but different rear bars. You could also put Z06 tires on the back and that will stop the oversteer also.

There was guy at the shop today that just had a LS7 installed in his 06 vert. Cost of engine, install and cam with other mods cost him $23,000. That cost more than a z06 would have, but he wanted a vert with the stock looks.

Goes to show you how easy a car with some power can get away from ya no matter how well you think you can drive.
