I have seen plenty of stock c6's go from 400 bhp to 550+ bhp. No changes other then the Maggie, new fuel injectors, and a tune. Add a good CAI, port the T/b, install headers and you are looking at 600 bhp or 500 rwhp brother.

My dads 08' crystal red convertible comes in mid Sept. and he has already ordered LG longtubes and an intake. Thanks to Allngn_C5 Doug. He wanted to order a cam too, but they don't make an aftermarket torque convertor yet.
Should be a pretty quick car!!!
