Default Vette vs Cobra Video

http://videos.streetfire.net/categor...66E3491E92.htm


This is my friends C6. In this video, it had full exhaust, vararam, and a tune. Made 400 to the wheels.


Car is on street tires.

Now, car has Lingenfelter intake, 90/ fast 90, taylor wires, tr55 plugs, kooks, B&B bullets, coil overs-and fikse's.

407rwhp
405rwtq

went 191 mph on video, with a couple hundred rpm left.

Turn up the volume

Not bad...but it made only 7 more RWHP from a 90/90? Is that a mis-print?

Stock TB. FAST 90.

At lower RPM, I belive the car made 15 more hp, and 17lbs more ft-lbs.

Have to call and ask him where it was though(on the power curve).

The majority of the comments on streetfire are made by dumbass people. There are so many brnad fanboys who comment. I bet half of them don't even have the car they worship. Anyways, who posted the title becuase it says it's a Z06.

Either the guy in the Cobra posted it, or one of his buddies. We didn't do it.

Trust me, the car isn't a Z06. I know what it says but, it isn't one. most likely the Cobra didn't want to look as bad loseing against a C6,...so he said it was a Z06. WHo knows.

My guess.

vararam and a tune will net 400rwhp on a C6?

Full exhaust + tune is 40rwhp alone. Throw in the vararam and 400rwhp certainly believable.

It has KOOKS long tube headers. We ordered the long tubes, with off road x pipe, but it came with high flow cats. We gutted/honed them out before installation on the car. It has a B&B BULLET exhuast.

Car was used as an R&D muel at diablosport for the predator. Lots of different tunes in the car.....

Now it has the new Lingenfelter air box, and there air bridge, no longer the vararm, taylor wires, coil-overs, fikse fm somethings......and the FAST intake.

.....but we have a full top end package for the car now. AFR's. Big cam. Injectors. pulley........ It should make good power.
