Yup stock Mich Cups and Speedline GM wheels. My limiter is unchanged also. I see in your post your well over 6,500. I need to double check my AIM data recorder but 6,5k I believe is all I get.

I shift into 5th on a sweeping right at 140+ on the back stretch of WG and to say the least it is not comfortable!

Same as the Z06. MPSC2 - 26-27 cold and 32-24 hot. Pirelli slicks - 24-25 cold 30-31 hot. Same pressures F/R.
