My FD vs. Modded 03 Z06.....no vid :(

To keep it short, my bud got a Z06 last year and we've ran before but not since my retune and ignition.

Well we do a quick highway pull just for the hell of it at about 55 or so. I was in 3rd gear at 4grand and he said he was in 3rd at 2800rpms. I got the quick jump since he was in low rpms but it didn't take long to get in his powerband. He was pretty much at my door the whole time and it just went back and forth till about 120 or so where he said he shut down.

My mods:
Full boltons
13 or so psi (manifold leak so kinda erratic)
Stock motor built by me
stock turbos

Z06 mods (so told):
full exhaust
tune
one hell of a cam!
and maybe some other basic boltons


Here's a video of the Z06 racing a mach1 and me before the tune and ignition.

Yeah he pulled the mach pretty well since he didn't spray but he didn't walk me too hard then. I just had a late start if i remember correctly. But it's a different story now!

Hard to say. My first tune was 300rwp uncorrected on a dynapack. Then the most recent tune was way off at like 280ish (way wrong). But if i had to guess, i'd say around 330-350.
