Cobra vs Z06 Pt. 3
Ok, I'll list my mods first...2.93 upper, 4# lower amd 100mm Idlers (Metco) K&N FIPK, Bassani Catback, Off Road X Pipe (no cats) SCT Tuner, Stiegemeier Stg 3 Ported Blower. The Z06 that we know of is Catback with no mufflers and Ziptie Mod (remember we bought the car used 9K mile on it)
Well we do a 2nd gear roll and I hit the rev limit so it was over, then we had a car pretty far behind us as we turned off so we wanted to get a race in incase he turned down our street. We did a low 3rd gear roll and we stayed even through 3rd and about middle of 4th I started to pull a bit, Id say I had maybe 1/2 car and going then I hit the damn rev limit so we ended the race. The Cobra was pulling pretty good, so I think I would have put a car or more pretty quick. I still need to upgrade my fuel system so once I get that I'll be a bit more confident as far as being safe. Ok as for hitting the damn rev limit, Ive had belt slip for a couple weeks so in the higher rpms it would take forever to get to redline, we switched belts and now its pulls like crazy so I need to get used to it again. Again that damn Z06 is quick we need to get it dyno'd, my car should be pretty close to 500 whp, I know my Maf is pretty much maxed out so I need to get that taken care of as well, but damn. The guy that works on my car said he drove a co-workers Z06 and he said it wasnt even close to ours he said ours made that Z06 feel slow. Oh well hopefully I'll have some $$ saved up for my maf, bap and injectors then im going to do a heat exchanger and coolant resevoir. That should be enough for a while
Oh well Thanks for reading...

As for the heat exchanger, it's called that because an intercooler is generally accepted as a air to air intercooler. The heat exhanger doesn't upgrade the entire air to water cooler, it simply replaces the front mount piece from the stock one. Well, anyways, that's my guess. I could be talking out of my @ss....
