Is there any gains to doing this on an 02 Z06? Is it as easy as LS1howto makes it out to be? I'm doing a cam swap with LG Pro headers and had the TB off. Just wondering if it would be worth the time and effort.

I can't hurt

I've heard that the gains aren't worth the effort; but I've never done the mod, so can't tell ya by experience.

Thanks guys, I guess if I get restless and annoyed enough buy the shape of the walls I will have at it. Not sure at this time, though.

I'll have to do some research and see if it has any response time aid or if it is just a wasted mod like the TB Bypass. I did that, though. Hmm

I'd do it, especially if you have the tools and you can do it right..

I bought a used Shaner for my '01 Zo6.

I could sense a minor difference in throttle response right after I did it....

I don't have the tools and am pretty sure not sure which ones I'll need. I think I'll wait a week or two and buy a ported one from Katech.

Thanks guys,

For the mods you have it will not give any real power increase, but it should give a little better throttle response.

I was just thinking about the mods that I'm doing right now.
G5X3 cam, 921 springs, LG Pro Headers, LS2 Timing chain, P/Bp LS6 oil pump.

I still think I'll just wait and get one already ported.

You will get about 5-8 HP and a better throttle responce for your efforts. Free HP is good..just invest a little labor and your there ..

Even if you get 5hp it's not worth the bother unless you are going for a ***** out NA combo. I've never understood wasting time with 5-15 hp mods. You'll never notice that little power difference. Really anything under 30 is a waste IMO.

I like to add power in 100 hp increments.

Contact Ron at Vengeance Racing & Development..he does great work on them too.

if you do 3 or 4 "15 HP" mods thats 60 HP. Ill take any amount of HP I can get.

Mods almost never work that way, unfortunately. If they did we'd all have 1,000 hp.

A lot of guys just like to "tinker" with their cars. Any gains that can be had for little to no money sure are nice

Also, not everyone has the resources / funds to add power in 100 HP increments.

The biggest thing i always see is that he gives you better throttle response.. HP is like 1-3hp
