Hey all,
I'm a new corvette owner and I thought what better place to learn about these cars than from the people who know them best - the forums. So I decided to join and hopefully one day contribute rather than be asking questions.
I've recently purchased a '12 Centennial edition C6 Z06. Although this is my first Corvette I'm not green when it comes to cars as I've been around imports for the majority of my time spent in the automotive game, and will continue to be as I dont discriminate when it comes to horsepower, hence the name.
Along with the corvette I also own a mitsubishi evo 8 currently on 40psi on a Gen 1 PTE CEA 6266 making 700AWHP on a mustang dyno. Of course this is a completely different platform than the LS7, with a 4 banger making 350WHP per liter/ 175WHP per hole.
I'm here to start my journey for nothing less than 1000whp and I expect alot out of this 7 liter, and from what I've gathered I've chosen wisely.
Regards,
