Funny Idea, but I'm not modding the car

3year 36000 bumper to bumper warranty > winning 1 race and voiding warranty.

Sorry to hijack, but do you have some videos of this car? Those are some extremely high numbers for an eaton blower.

I'm sorry but I would actually make a huge difference

But then again I'm just bored at work.....
Next run will probably be a LT, xpipe, catback intake, tuned C5Z.. (Savior1974 needs to move on the Long Tubes and get off of this stock ****..)
I'm not a real big racer so it'll be sometime before i decide to set something up. I’ll keep you guys posted..

Just thinking about it the C5Z is about equivalent to the LS2 C6.
LS2 full exhaust vs pullied cobra is a good race.. I’ll keep ya’ll posted..

Ok, time for an intervention.
You need to snap out of it.. **** the warranty!! You only live once, you obviously bought the car to have fun, have some fun..
Think about it,, what’s the point? Might as well have bought a civic..

I’ll roll down with you to A&A and introduce you to Andy & then we can roll down to RPM and have you get a tune from Charlie. You’ll be all set. The car wants to be driven.
The restraint thus far is admirable, now it’s time to move forward. Cash in the Warranty for some more mod money.

Let me know,

I took off my waranty a month after I bought it....It dont cover crap.... but to each his own....LT's are something I wouldnt get myself because cop give $3000 citations for missing cats and I'd rather pay $2000 for a street leagl cam and tune for the same power...

how come? i didnt see Z having traction issues. hell, once he out launched the cobra, an on second time, he bogged which means he "hooked" and bogged. LOL. looks like his tires were stick enough for this power level. sticky tires wouldnt make a difference in this race, expecially from a roll. from a stop it would make a little difference if the Z driver would rev high and leave the line harder but he would get caught up top.

+1
It would have been worse for the Vet in the roll races if he had DR's.
JD_Z28 is just trying to save face with the excuses.

Intake and exhaust is not going to void your warranty man. Hell I've had my rear end rebuilt and clutch replaced with my car basically as it sits now! Trust me you'll be smiling from ear to ear with a few mods and wonder why you would have ever left it stock, that car will be a beast with a few mods....

Not very many unfortunately. None with the more recent numbers, all the ones I have are from when I was running just an upper pulley and no nitrous. It made 520rwhp/497twtq with just an upper pulley/ported blower. But here you go....

hey man ,

1- there are many mod friendly dealerships out there.

2- even if you take your car modded to a dealer, they don't void your warranty, they say, you got after market parts on and they won't work on your car unless you put the stocks back on.

just go get intake, exhaust and keep the stock parts in the garrage. i am sure a dealer won't say anything when they see an aftermarket exhaust or intake. but again, you can simply put the stocks back on and have them work on your car if you break.
