should I add the weight to my z06?

the LS7 is as perfect as a motor as it gets. all im doing is putting on parts even the GM engineers like. free-er breathing exhaust and intake, as well as a tune that still safe but much better at making power

Nothing wrong with that. Will the exhaust still have the butterfly valves?

But as far as performance cars, i could never justify one. Body flex, and extra weight break my heart.

I hear ya about body flex. The c5 vettes were designed to be a convert but thats probably a rare exception. They still have less flex-body roll than a stang //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Well even then they're never as rigid. Aston Martin goes to great lengths to reinforce their converts but its just not the same. And its not like AM is worried about weight.

I don't understand why your asking about putting a system in. You are obviously not trying to make it a 1/4 mile car, so what does it matter? Unless your going to add 200lbs worth of audio equipment, I would not worry about it.

As Nike says, Just Do It!

Very nice looking car by the way and I am a huge Ford fan. That stock Z06 would own just about every stock Ford ever built and look nice doing it.

Now if we are going to say how great of a car it is, can we copare it to a somewhat midly modded Supra on a road course or from a roll? I have seen a few video's of Supras owning bikes, Corvetts, Mustangs, Vipers, Porches and most anything else at a road course or from 30-40 mile rolls. It's funny how they **** them up right after a turn or from a roll. You can hear that turbo screaming for more air.

Just like anything, it all has to do w/ your skill level. A week driver will make a world of difference. Hell, I have humiliated a few corvette owners in my big old modded diesel truck because they were retards when it came to driving. They dump the clutch right of the line and spin the tires or shift to the wrong gear from a roll.

I never once bashed the ford GT its a amazing car. stock for stock its a drivers race. i have $400 in mods in mine and i walk them from higher speeds.

now put a differant pully on the at GT and its all over. but most GT owners NEVER mod there car. us vette guys do

and I am keeping the stock exhaust as its a true 3" system. and just doing the Longtube headers

Yehh..i just read in my 5.0 Mag that they had to have a whole new blower assembly made from Kenne Bell to accept a smaller pulley...but **** when they did....ridiculous numbers.

Just bring your car over here to Futural Motorsport and theyll have you asking GTs if you have a brake light out:up2somet:

You really need to read the whole thread before posting something like that.

rather than try and flame for MY opinion, rather than show your ignorance and assume i hadnt read it, ASK me if i read the thread, Like Eugenics asked if i'd seen the video.... and i woulda told you that i had. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eyebrow.gif.fe2c18d8720fe8c7eaed347b21ea05a5.gif

As for the Z06 owner, sorry about the part where i implied you were "Bashing" i was actually refering to a few other Z06 owners i know. So for that i apologize. Your car is fast, ill hand you that. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/yumyum.gif.0556df42231b304b9c995aefd13928a8.gif And with your last reply u somewhat hit on something i meant. Most GT owners just own a "pretty car" and NEVER mod them, its sad. BUt the ones that do, do pulley or blowers swaps...hoooooly craaaaaaaap lol
