Default How do bolt-on c5 Z06's run

Looking at getting into a C5 Z06. I am wondering how they run typically with your generic bolt-ons.... headers/exhaust/intake. I'm assuming that puts them 380-400 rwhp with a tune and being light that should run pretty well. Just looking to get into a very enjoyable car that i can drive everyday and i think a bolt on, cam only z06 is where i want to head. So what are you bolt on z06 guys running? Thanks!

Pretty sure there was a guy on here running 11.1 in his bolt on c5Z.

Too bad Ranger never got his past cold air/dr's, as I don't see why he couldn't get one into the 10's with full bolt-ons.

I've been 11.40's with headers, cai, tune, dr's on my nitrous plugs in 100degree weather. Was looking to go high teens or low twentys in the fall but I blew a piston, on nitrous. Best 1/8 was a 7.32@96mph.

Gary's car I assume? That's a strong running car too, I think Dr. Ron's record is going down.
