Nice man! I love our Z06 here at the shop. It's easily one of the most badass cars that I've been in. We've done a good amount to ours but even when it was straight off the assembly line...just wow.

Your 2009 with that a&a if done with headers should be pretty fast.

I had the rear Borla pipe that eliminates the two rear cats, a Green air filter and ported tb to run my 10.64. Not too bad for almost stock. I did have drag radials but as slow as this engine goes into WOT not sure I needed them. According to my HPT log I was going 32 mph before it finally went 100% WOT. Lots of torque management.

Yeah it has arh long tubes. I doubt I can run those times though. I really like the new z06 cars in shark gray. A red car will get me into trouble
