the z06 puts down 500hp with a full exhaust, very little mods needed to put down horsepower

Exhaust, intake and tune yeah. But not just with exhaust. You're not going to get 50rwhp just out of an exhaust even on a V8.

Some people just cant let things go...
I'm 16 and I'm dissapointed with the maturity of some people on this thread!

Nice SLK btw, a 20B conv. would make a crazy nice car, expensive toy to mod tho.
And love the vette Justin, those two cars are def amongst my fav cars - Vettes and 7s.

Thanks for the compliments James. Vettes and 7's are my two most favorite cars as well(hence why I busted my *** to have both!). They are both sex on wheels.

aye bro, looks like you did this manually(stretch / skew)

If you go to edit: stretch skew, just type in like, 80% width 80% height and it will decrease the picture by 20% so it won't look so choppy, if 20% is too little(and need to take off more) then do UNDO, or else it'll mess the quality up if you keep decreasing the size this way.

-It just looks to me like it's tall and not wide enough...

sexy car

You should be nice to the newblings. Especially the Miami ones. They tend to be more ignorant than others LOL

Anyways, I've seen an FD dyno 350rwhp pushing 14-15lbs on stock twins with ported motor, ECU & SMIC. Why is it so hard to believe this? I dunno. I also know the same guy has pulled mid 11s with slicks. It's not like we need much power to get these little cars moving

The big advantage the C6 has is the 6th gear and the torque.

Can't wait to get that 6th gear....one of these years LOL. Oh I forgot. I don't want a 6th gear. I simply need another gear between my 4th and 5th. Are the newblings around here still stating that they only want a 6th gear just because all other cars have them without knowing the technical reason behind it?

Does someone make a 6 speed for the RX7? Like you said that 5th gear in the FD is basically an overdrive gear. Long way between 4th and 5th.

OMG, Justin you just mentioned you have a Vette! The conceit ***** might come and get you! LOL I don't see what the big deal is that Yellow R1 mentioned his SLK anyway. Even IF he was trying to flaunt, who gives a ****? How does that affect me? Not one damn bit. (Nice SLK btw, and WOW on the HP of the Yellow FD)

I also think it's funny that when someone blatantly says it's not possible to make such and such power, even after they're proven wrong they try to twist it around and say they meant something else. LOL


Good luck to the OP in your efforts to tame the C6, you can do it.
