Default 60 to 120 in 2 Seconds!

No, no, no, not my car - MY HEART. Just received my Katech improved '08 C6Z from Jason and the boys. Had them do a cam with high lift springs and titanium retainers, SS brake lines, AP600, Koolmat, Superbee, billet belt tensioner and 160 thermo. I'm having Kooks headers and Corsas put on tomorrow. Since it was their first '08 and their first black (fastest color), the tune took a little extra time but was worth it. They did a great job. Pics soon.

Thank you and congrats. You forgot - Powdercoat black wheels. Does it have a nickname now? Batmobile? Knight Rider?

Be safe

Default Please Welcome Franken-Vette

Well, it took a while to get everything installed. Like Frankenstein, my car is greater than the sum of it's parts.

Without the headers and Corsas it was strong but stealthy. With them, it pulls harder, but there's nothing stealthy about the exhaust note - very muscle carish.
