As long as you enjoy the scent of a cohiba air freshener for a few weeks...

I bought an black 02 Z28 that was done by Cartek back in Oct 07 from New York. It has QTP's, catted y-pipe, corsa exhaust, pulley, Cartek 2x (224/228/113lsa) and ported tb. The dyno chart said it made 402rwhp and 375ft lbs of torque. I ran mine full weight with spare on stock wheels. On a soft launch 2.333 60ft (still has bone stock rear and suspension pieces) the car went 12.6@117.5mph. If I wasn't scared to break the rear I could easily get a 1.7-1.8 60ft and run 11's. I drive this car daily and I can barely tell it has a cam in it and I still get 22mpg mixed driving. I love the power this car has up top. Judging Cartek by the car I bought they do awesome work.
