Default C6 Z06 rwhp and 0-60?

I was just wondering what a stock C6 Z06 is pushing as far as rwhp and what do they run 0-60?

I have seen 2 dyno so far and they where around 460 rwhp but if you take out the airfilter (big old brick looking thing) it would go up to 475 ish. There was one that dynoed at 493 with out the filter.

Cool, that's about what I figured but wasn't for sure. I'm wanting to do some work to my car this winter so I can still beat one down low and mid-range.

As far as 0-60 goes, Car and Driver's recent issue tested the Z06 against the Viper (killed it in every performance aspect), and the car did a 3.4 second run. But Automobile magazine's recent issue tested the car at 4.1 seconds. The Ford GT did it in 4.0 seconds. They liked the GT more, but at $140,000, it's not really in the same class.

motortrend has the z06 at 3.8, viper at 4, gt at 3.4
rwhp was 453, 447, and 535
1/4 was 11.6, 12, and 11.5

vette has best gas mileage, best cargo room, most likely best features since the other two are somewaht stripped down, tied the viper in braking and handling, its also the lightest, the vette is pretty much on top of the game right now, and the gt is merely a mid-engined, crappier handling vette for almost 3 times the price, the viper is the vette and gt's doormat.

Also, pulling the airfilter only yeilds 4-6 rwhp. Not the 20 some claim.
