Are you serious? '98-'04 base model Corvettes had LS1's rated at 345 hp. '01-'04 Corvette Z06's had LS6's. The '01 Z06 was rated at 385 hp while the '02-'04 Z06's were rated at 405 hp.

Yes they had a 350hp LS1 base C5 corvette, and a 400-405 LS6 C5 corvette Z06.

But your not the only one that thinks this...

On other forums, Most of the time, I hear people talk about "Killing" a Z06.... about 90% of the time, it turns out to be a regular Vette.

That's the same thing I said... But its too easy to do a mod that's costs like $1 and gain more power...

"His SS" or "a SS"? A regular SS - it should because it has the same engine with a lighter body. His SS - LS1 =/= cammed LS1.

Savior - I always knew of the mod, just hadn't seen in on a car before yours. I really don't know why more people don't do it.

Yeah I wasn't the one that invented it, I think JRod did. But most vette owners don't seem to like it. I guess because it doesn't look as sexy or have the name brand as say, the Vararam or the Halltech.

But even one of my tuners (Charlie @ RPM) said he's never seen another intake only Z06 make as much power as my car & that my car is making the numbers it takes others intake/headers/and tune to make. So the Ziptie must be doing something.

****.. actually I dont have any, But yeah you can see the naked filter held on by 2 super long Zipties.. (each super long ziptie is really 2 zipties connected to make 1)

But after you do the ziptie mod, you wanna put the Hood Seal on too, to protect the filter from water and dust from getting into the engine bay.
