Default A8's the same

Are the A8's the same in the Z06 and regular C7's? Maybe only programming being the difference? I mean more like the internals and converter.

I believe they are slightly different with the Z06 having additional cooling over the base C7.

The difference between the standard A8 and Z06 is as stated the additional cooler also the torque rating of the Z06 is higher. No the Z51 does not have the additional cooler in the 15.
