Went to the DarkSide

I sold the Mach and picked this up:
03 EB Z06, 36k miles.
Vengence Racing Vindicator Cam, Tooley Racing Valve Kit, Textraia 6 puck clutch, built tranny, TSP LT's, TSP X Pipe, Factory Titanium Axle Back, Halltech CAI, 150 wet kit. Car has made 422/400 N/A and 589/600 on the bottle.
We are retuning it, hoping for better numbers.

Re: Went to the DarkSide

Congrats! Reminds me of my old EB 02 z06. Mine made 605rwhp with a magnuson at 6psi and a dry 75 shot. Was a wickedly fast car, but vettes just aren't my style and driving them on the street is a pita with how low they are even with stock ride height.

Re: Went to the DarkSide

Thanks guys, I figured I'd get mixed reviews. I am super impressed with the LS platform and the power they make. I am ready to step it up a little bit. This car NA is faster than my Mach was on the bottle.

Re: Went to the DarkSide

The C5 Z06 is an underrated car. Put a set of modern, sticky tires on it, and it's still competative with almost any car. Add bolt ons and it gets silly. Obviously though, yours takes it quite a bit further.

I would agree 420whp sounds a little low for an I/H/C ls6.

Re: Went to the DarkSide

Nice ride ! I love the EB blue. There is gotta be some more power there on motor. Unless it was on a nitrous tune?

Huh?

Without knowing the cam specs then, 420-440whp sounds about right then. A bolt on ls6 should be able to hit 380whp and 40-60whp from a cam isn't bad especially if the car remains completely street friendly.

The factory heads and intake are great, with the throttle body probably being the biggest restriction for ya. Being as it's a 5.7 unfortunately you can't use most of the newer factory heads, but there is tons of aftermarket intake/heads should you decide later on. Good luck on the retune!
