Intro
Evening fellow Vette enthusiasts.
Wanted to introduce myself as I am new to the forum, not corvettes.
I just purchased a new toy after a year from hell.
06' with LS3 Top and Bottom end, corsa exhaust with headers, pro-charger, all hoses and lines stainless, aluminum radiator, new beefed up trans (capable of 1200 hp), wilwood slotted and drilled rotors with 6 piston front and 4 piston rear wilwood calipers and carbon fiber vented cowl hood.
Purchased 6 hours ago. Fun car so far with a nice ride and tasteful mods. Car pulls hard, just wish the new Michelins would grab a bit better.
Anyway, will be taking it to the local speed shop (Speed Inc) for a Dyno tune to see where I sit and mod from there.
Thanks for reading and safe travels out there......
