haha then you havent been around the Lambo guys before. All the Vette guys come around and harrass the fuck outta everyone with the" you such a dumbass you could have just bought a z06 its faster blah blah blah" its annoying as shit. Seriously Lambo has wow factor corvette doesnt, theres a diffrence. Lambo community knows the z06 is fast.... i think its subsided now that the z06 hype has died somewhat...

 

Rich... the recall is only a specific VIN range but everyone suspects that it is a C6 wide problem, it's not just the Z06's and it's not just a certain batch of cars. The ones most suceptible are the darke cars in hot climates.

Mods:

*LT headers (LGM, Kooks, or American Racing) w/ cats or w/o cats
*Hall-tech "race" filter (I'd leave it alone thoug) stock intake looks restrictive but isn't.
*Tune (headers and tune will put you about 480 rwhp)

If you want to go for more you can go w/ a cam package and get to 550-570 but there goes the warranty.

Personally I'd leave it stock power wise and spend the money on track stuff.

*Shark bar (for harnesses)
*6-pt harness set w/ mounting hardware
*CCW corsair wheels w/ some Michelline Sport Cups (not full slicks for you yet)
*Stop tech big brake kit, these stock brakes suck for track use. They pads are very very thin, very very expensive, and changint them is a PITA and the allen screws in the caliper tend to strip. The stockers really only look cool. Plus the stock rotors are crazy heavy, the cross drilling is for looks only and promotes earlier cracking... oh and the rotors are only left side rotors... the vanes point the wront way on the right side (way to go GM)... so first mod should be harnesses and Stop tech brakes... leave the power and tires until you get used to the car.

 

Thanks for the heads up Brian. Headers will def' be one of the first mods. I can't believe how expensive a one-way fricken' ticket is to West Virginia.....backwards ass state that it is. $400.....crap.

 

can't afford the Lambo........someday, maybe.

 

But this could have been yours:

 

uh, that's not a lambo......though. whateve Rich i PM'ed you

 

are you being serious?

 

Well a bone stock 450 rwhp Z06 walks a Gallardo hard... it's a beautiful thing.

 

I know.........it'll be hard not "flexing" the 427 on the drive home. When is it considered broken in? I'll have to check the manual. Hopefully, the older guy was nice to it during the first 1000 miles.

 

The motor is broken in on the engine dyno at the plant... the drivetrain is broken in after 500 miles.
