Hey Kilr, whatcha got in that thing? Did you put a blower on it? Inquiring minds wanna know why you're calling it a Z06 killer? Did you upgrade the brakes too?

From those pics and my crappy work monitor, i see:
Bassani (exhaust)
Something (phoenix?) Gold (stereo i believe)
Sirius (stereo)
Michelin (tires)
Kinesis (wheels)
And Trident (tax write off)
There are a few i cant make out, so i might end up eating crow here, but all that stuff will make it sound good, but dont make it any faster.

Don't forget the Baer brakes sticker
He has an aftermarket hood (Motor city I believe) and that usually means one of two things.
Show car or blower
I would love to put those wheels on my car but they go for big $$$ :cry:
Very nice car looks fast just sitting there.

Good Eye on the Baer sticker.
I put a pair of Kenesis wheels on a Porsche 951 (944 turbo) w/ a LT-4 in it. The wheels were art, and priced like they were gold :hammerhea
Current project is a Porsche 914 w/ a Mild (350HP) smallblock Chevy. Expected to be under 1800lbs wet :cool: Wonder if it will go faster w/ stickers on it?? :wink: :)

I checked out the website in your profile and there is alot of really fun toys!
I toyed with the idea of stuffing a mildly built LS1 (Heads/cam) in a late model RX7 but people still want alot of cash for the cars.
The looks/weight of a RX7 with the power of a LS1 would be tuff to beat. :hammerhea
350hp in a 1800lb car will be scary fun!
If your local I need a ride when all is said and done.

I'm always amazed (but not surprised) at the number of people who spend big money to make their cars (1) go faster, and (2) handle better but don't spend the bucks on making it stop better.
I'd rather have great brakes in a go-fast car than make a go-fast car go faster with stock brakes. Once you've driven a car with truly great, fade-free brakes, you'll never want to be without them.
PS: Kilr - I believe your wife's C6 is bone stock about as much as I believe Hot Boat has a magazine :D

Give it time everybody stays stock for awhile!(I have some new Kooks 1 7/8 headers for a C6 for sale if your interested :wink: )
On a side not I have spent alot of time in the seat of a Z06 and a C6 coupe(Both Auto and 6spd) and there is quite the difference.
The C6 and Z06 are pretty dang close on a road track if you opted for the Z51 suspension package.(Z06 has a slight advantage)
In a straight line with equal drivers the 02+ Z06 will rip a C6 pretty good in a 1/4 mile race.They make about 20 more HP than the C6 eventhough they rate the C6 only 5 hp less.Also the Z06 comes in at 83lbs less.(Titanium exhaust/Non run flat tires)
The race would come down to driver but the Z06 is typically 3-5/10's faster in the 1/4 mile mod to mod.
As soon as they figure out the tuning and the knock sensor issues expect to see 475-500 rwhp heads and cam LS2 cars!!!
I might need another C6 for development if your interested.

Stickers are mostly gone now, still have the Trident stickers on it of course.
That is the thing about image vehicles... you have to honor your obligations.
What I am looking to do though is get a 00-04 Roadster to do this mod to...

Which is arguably the coolest thing I have ever seen. I would like to do my car, but it won't work with a hard top.

The day that long tube headers, performance cats and exhaust, grippy brakes, intakes, cams, heads, throttle bodies, injectors, clutch, wheels and tires don't give you performance...
It makes more power... and more noise.
No stereo gear is in it BTW... they are just OEM stuff in the boat so I gave them some props for the SEMA show. Car has Sparcos and Hardbar seating and harnesses too.
This is Audrey's everyday driver now. Plus, there is always a bigger fish out there.

Yeah, I did some of it before the SEMA stuff. I didn't turn down much that year...
The Bassani stuff is the headers, cats and catback gear, Baer brakes obviously, Kinesis wheels, Michellin tires, Hardbar is on the side there...
The only thing you don't see on the stickers is the cam I paid for, the head work I paid for, the extrude honing, injectors and LS6 edit that I did. Everything else got pretty well represented.
Cole... who are you going through with Baer??? If you need a hookup, I can give you some numbers.

The car is alot of fun and makes my 11 second Camaro SS feel slow
Your car has a great look with the hood/wheels I hope mine has that kind of visual impact one day.
If you ever want to sell those Kineses wheels for real real cheap let me know!!! :2purples: :eek: Dang I need a second job!
