Sounds like a plan, just keep in mind that GT2-3 will only gain you about 10rwhp on your 02 Z06. Even Ed @ LPE said this, so it might not be worth the expense if you are going to do N20 anyway. If you are buying new and having a shop doing the install, not sure if you could justify the expense for 10hp, but if you will do the work yourself, maybe its worth it to you. Also, I heard someone say that the 02+ Z06 cams like N20....not sure why, but thats what I heard...

A Vararam and 315 BFGs got my time below, and self tuned. Blows away all the Cobras around hear. Then if someone has a highly modded Kenne Bell Cobra or something similar, it's time for one stage, two stages or throw the thrid stage of n2o in the mix. Stock cobras are slugs compared to the Z06, so maybe some more seat time is all you need. If your going up against a highly modded Cobra, why can't you be modded. You cheat someone on purpose in my area and you'll get what's coming to ya, for sure. If you have to cheat, stay the hell home with your mother.

Hey Robert, I just bought a Vararam for my 01' Z. Did you have to get the car tuned after adding the vram? What type of gains did the Vram give you? Also, when you say 315's do you use 17's at the track, or is that 315's on the stock Z06 18's? What are they like 315/30's??

I run the 315 30 18 BFG on stock Z06 10.5 wheels, new style. Old style you can get in 315 35 17 and tread compound is similar.
So even after the computer relearns the addition of the vram, it will still run very rich at WOT? So essentially the car could actually run slower with the addition of the vram and not getting a tune, ever after the computer relearns?
Where I am at is I have a vram right now, and plan on getting LT's eventually but not sure when that will be. Might not be till spring. I don't want to pay for a dyno tune until I get the LT's on, b/c I don't want to pay twice. So I am wondering if its even worth it to put the vram on now.

AFR 205s with the logo milled off.
FAST 90 sanded and painted black.
GM90MM TB
Stealth cam of your choice.
HP would be in the 410-415RWHP range... Maybe as high as 420.

I'm going to make my firebird a sleeper with Nitro Dave's "Money Maker." Maybe, if you don't mind a hidden direct port nitrous system, you'll do the same?

I have done many bone stock Zo6's with a small dry shot of gas (125hp) and 275/40/17 ET Streets on Z06 Front rims sleeper and this is how you do it Stock they ran 12.2 and made 354 rwhp flip the switch and you have 454 rwhp 11.10 @126 1.7 60"... I have made a lot money on these Vettes. Look, sound and run bone stock ha ha flip the switch and take the money!
