2008 C6 LG Headers, K&N Intake & Tune The car is an A6 with 1200 miles on it. Went to get it tuned the first time and had some bad gas and lost hp. Now, it looks like things are going right. Can't wait for a cam and stall !!!
BTW This is dads car, not mine
He's pretty damn happy.

WOW, my brother has almost the same setup on his 08 and we were thinking 430RWHP with his A6.
Are you using the Stock intake setup with a Filter or a totally new intake setup???
Do you have the NPP Exhaust or cats???
Right now we have LG headers with the NPP exhaust (Sounds like a F1 car), Electric Waterpump, and soon to have Ed Wright Dyno Tune the car. We think the Zo6 Style air box flows better than the aftermarket units b/c it doen't seem to bottle neck as bad at the TB, we are planning on just adding a Filter.
At the C6's Weight level, cutting a low 1.6X Sixty foot (would require most likely a Stall) at that power level would equate to a Low 11 or high 10 second pass.
I know my brothers 08 weighs only 3120 with half a tank of gas without him in it (165 lbs). If you can get the Sixty down you'll have a VERY impressive pass.

Its dads car, so it probably won't see the track. But, I've been known to borrow his cars and sneak it to the track.

Those are some REALLY good numbers. That car with just headers and intake is making almost 20 more rwhp than my old head/cam C5. That is just crazy. Plus its an auto.

Dennis, glad everything worked out. Great numbers with an A6!
BTW, we just finished another 08 that gained 92rwhp with a G7x4, ASP, 160, Vararam, and the Most Powerful Corvette Header on the Planet!

Great numbers. I really see no point in buying a Z06 if minor mods are going to put you even. I'm also interested in what this car runs at the track. The air is starting to get good in MI.

I'd like to see track times too, but he's not one to rag on his cars.
The ZO6 still weighs a couple hundred lbs less. The ZO6 is still the best bang for the buck.

Ya the suspension and weight are the big z06 tickets now that a bolt on ls3 can almost put down the same power. However, an 08 z51 will be quite a threat to stock z06 drivers! Those numbers are awesome for that car, with those bolts ons..i'm really impressed with these new 6.2L's. Now lets see how they respond with a factory supercharger in a year or two

Well Congratulations Dennis and Big Daddy Kane. I guess I am out of the dog house for sending you guys to LG Motorsports huh ?? LOL. I told you that something was up. I really have to say that your dad's car far exceeded the power I was expecting. Again congrats.

I don't have a video of the final pull, but this video was right before with 28 degrees of timing. The final run was backed down to 27 degrees.
For the non-believers, ENJOY !!!
