Assembly by Lindgren Supercars of Green Bay, WI. Final tune (current set up) was done by famous Denver-area magician, Clint, of American Intense Racing. There was extensive tuning involved to get this LS6 to pass the strict Denver emissions. Once past the BS, Clint re-tuned for excitement. The result is smooth, progressive power - very well-mannered. The cam is aggressive, but not max-effort. There is a noticeable lope at idle and corresponding chassis shake, but without the intensity of an LG G5X3 setup. Everyone will know you are NOT stock. The cam is 100% streetable for everyday driving, but intense when you hit the loud pedal. The Corsa Extreme and LG headers make sure everyone knows you are there. At highway (70mph, 5th gear), the car runs extremely smooth - no drone, just a noticeable, sustained "roar" at the rear. The exhaust, at highway speed, does not overpower the interior. Talking with your passenger is fine, but I would rather listen to the engine note. In 6th, the exhaust note is subdued. Cruising in 5th at 70 is really sweet, though - no need to downshift to pass......just dip into the throttle and 490whp puts considerable distance between you and the traffic very quickly. Lot's of fun.
Now, if you launch from first and row the gears wide open, this car is LOUD. I actually find it difficult to concentrate on rpms and shifting because of the intensity of the engine/exhaust sound. Nice distraction, though.
Final comment: Everything about this car says "Race Car." The entire setup has been arranged around that look and feel. While the car feels absolutely great, and comfortable, as soon as you sit in it, you feel like you are in a race car. There are certainly more powerful C5Z's out there, but this one is ALL naturally aspirated and feels completely raw and useable in its power. Just wanted to make sure any interested parties understand that this thing feels 100% mechanical and purposeful in its design.

Beautifully done Z. I don't know why you want to get a C6, when you have your car; it's that nice. My nephew wants to buy my Z, but for the price you're asking, I'm sending him a link. GLWS!
