Which way is better I'm doing my home work and trying to figure out best way to run 10's in either a 2005 LS2 vette, or a 2006 Zo6.
I figure the 2005 LS2 would be an A4, just don't know financially which way is better to go. Of course my setup would exclude N2o. I could deal with a nice turbo setup. What parts/packages would I need for the 2005?

Teh Z is capable of a mid 11 to start... with traction, headers and a cam it would probably run a 10.9, so figure whatever that would cost ya.
I don't know of anyone that has done it yet, but C6 with a big converter, gears, and tires, has got to be an 11 second car, how far into the 11's I don't know, they are a 12.70 give or take stock car.
The auto will make things easier, but you'll have ot step up and make more power over stock with it to get it done, whereas the Z06 would probably benefit more in teh traction department, both cars will need that addressed.
Then, there's the corvette drivetrain, will either stand up to that abuse? Without some upgrading, I highly doubt it.
