Default Bought my first c6z06! Twin turbo

So few weeks ago I bought my dream car finally at the age of 26.
A 2009 c6 zo6!! 12k miles

I've owned 2 built fbodys (700hp)
99 frc 800hp hp c5 (drewsteins old car)
Ls6 swapped single cab Silverado.(420hp)
But my dream car has always been a c6 zo6.
I've spent the last few weeks just feeling out the car .

Any of you guys running the aps twin turbo kit?
Any feedback ?
Here's a few pics of her
Glad to be part of the Vette community 👍🏻

WOW! That is quite a list. You are going to have to sell a lot of crayfish to pay for it. Let us know how it goes.

We got a good cold front the other day and I was seeing around 5.8lbs
But honestly no you can't really hear them . Later on down the road I'd like to build the motor and really turn them up .
Plus there up under the car .
Here's a picture

Wow...I have a stock 2011 cyber grey Z07 and at first glance, mine looks almost identical (except where it counts!). What a beautiful sleeper. Congrats on the new ride. My dream car as well.

Curious about the tinted side lights. I have the smoked eagle eyes tail lights but need to complete the look. Are those vinyl overlays or custom painted?

Obviously you have been around mega hp cars and have experience. That's great man..living the dream.
Couldn't see the oil cooler plumbing in the pic... Did you delete it? Did mine.
Only on 5 lbs boost with twins? Wow at the potential.
What cam, how much overlap?
Is it maf tuned?
Any lag at all.. Probably not?

Yea I love the cyber grey. All my previous cars have been black.
So im loving the color . (Black drove me crazy)
As far as the side lights there sprayed .
The eagle tail lights are also on my to do list. I probably should have picked some up during the cyber Monday sale
