Default A.R.E h/c Z06 completed

Just got my 02 Z06 back from A.R.E.

With Stage II heads and a 232/236 .590 .601 114lsa cam, the car made 448.9 rwhp and 387.2rwtq, with cats. I'm really happy with the car. Goes like all hell above 4k. Idles pretty nicely. Rumbles around at idle, but it's pretty docile once you get moving.

Overall an awesome job. Thanks to Wade and the crew.

The mods on the car are Corsa Ti exhaust, Stainlessworks headers, Vararam, ported TB, ported intake, and the h/c.

The cats are robbing the torque, but the cam is a high rpm ****. I bought a pulley from LG, but unfortunately they shipped me the F-bod one...sucks because I know i'm never pullin the steering rack off but oh well.
