Ryne@CMS + Charlie@RPM = Magic! (Got my C5Z06 Dynoed) Well, I had the opportunity to get my stock 2003 Corvette Z06 tuned by two of the best LS tuners in the business (Ryne@CMS & Charlie@RPM). Before I post the results, I would like to give both of this tuners thanks, and say if anyone else every needs a tune or anything else LS related, Don't hesistate to contact either one. You are gaurenteed excellent service and results either way you go.
So without further ado...

Stock C5Z06 w/ Intake lid removed.
Charlie was amazed by the numbers my basically stock car put down. He said that I must have a factory freak. Then he drove it and said it was amazing for no mods.
So I have to say thanks alot to Charlie and Ryne, and I will be glad to send each of you business whenever I can.

I can agree with Savior_1974. Though I have never had work done by Charlie personally! I can vouch for Charlie's work that has been done to my friends Vettes. I gave Ryne a shot on my Vette after hearing about him though a fellow F-Body fan Will. Did some research and found out that Ryne is the "man" for the F-bodies. I also learned that he wanted to do more Vettes and that he knows Charlie personally. After looking at driving distances, my decision was made to go through Ryne to get all my work done. All I can say these guys are top notch and take the time to talk to you and treat you like one of there own. I have found a new mechanic that my Vette will only see. Not only are they my "mechanic" they also became my friends Ryne, CJ, and Mike! Sorry Mike about the finger. I still feel bad.

Yeah, Honestly, Either way you go, Charlie or Ryne, you will have an excellent experience. LOL I'm just lucky I had the chance to have both of them grace my car with their experience.

So I did and once we saw the numbers... it all made sense. Then we decided to see if we could squeeze a little more out cause I'm greedy.
coming soon................
I talked to Mike today about that... that sucks! OUCH!

Yeah, it made fantastic power when I first brought it in. IIRC, Charlie said the baseline was 375whp and I was stunned because thats huge power for a stock Z06. The main reason I decided to take it there was because I was getting tired of being accused from having "secret mods" that I wasn't telling anyone about. As you've seen in my other videos, my car was taking out cars that made more whp than me on the dyno. So they swore up and down that I was either lying, or that I had mods done in the car that I didn't know about. So we decided that the best way to figure this out would be to dyno all our cars on the same dyno so we can see whats going on. And since both of the cars I beat had already been dyno'ed on RPM's dyno. I had to take mine there.

yeah i probably could have gotten that extra power out of the car with more timing, because after talking to charlie he said he was able to get a healthy amount of timing in it, i was like damn charlie i couldnt get that much timing into that car when i tuned it, so i figure it must of been better gas when charlie tuned it. but damn man you have a fluke fast car, some just come that way from the factory

The only free mods I know for the z06 is the "Ziptie Mod" which is basically removing the air box cover and using 2 zipties to secure the airfilter to the intake. This allows the car to take in more air. And lowering the car on stock bolts. There might be more, but that's all that I know of.
