Yeah" once i removed the high flow catts ( which we found that they were crushed ) and added the alum/flywhl i picked up from 473/413 to 491/429

Wow nice, Im running kooks with HFC's .

Were you loosing HP cause they were crushed or were the cats restricting that much power?

Does the exhaust smell bad now without the cats?

Congrats on the #s. Seems high for combo but all that matters is how fast it traps and how much you like it. Sorry about the diff, I have heard that 05's have a weaker rearend compared to the rest of the C6s.

Great numbers! Definitely let us know how it does at the track when you get your nerve back, lol. Breaking parts always sucks and makes you want to take it easy for a while.

I don't know about no worries. My friend blew his Moser twice and I blew mine once and we were both making 400 rwhp or less.
