Anyone modded their Z06 yet?

[Dgds88t]

I am thinking getting bolt-ons for my Z this summer (Intake, Throttle bodies and Sport cats). Has anyone here done the same? Do you feeling any difference in power before and after?

I am torn because some people say bolt-ons are useless without a tune and others are showing improved 1/4 mile time and 60-130 time.

Watch the dyno for the yellow Z06. You be the judge. Mid range gained quite a bit even without a tune.
I had done the 3 using budget parts than the yellow HTC. I will not be able to tell until summer. Plus, I don't have enough seat time stock to compare to modded. I will do the exhaust at the dealership this summer.

What bolt-on parts did you use? I am thinking Eventuri Intake, Soler TBs and 2m fab cats.

Everything on your list except I went with the Haltech which is less than 1/2 price. I also bought the extra optional track/high-low filter. I don't need the fancy carbon box and the clear panel that's with the Eventuri and lose a little of trunk space. That just me.

I dont care about the carbon and the clear cover either but Eventuri apparently provides the most gain (30 to 40 whp in mid range).

With some bolt-ons like ours, it an out gun the Demon even with that supercharger. Didn't expect even on a roll race. Without that big ZR1 wing, he may even be quicker.

Makes a great table for tailgate parties........

Not a big fan on any of the post type wings from the C8. They may be functional but not so attractive. The Z07 wing is ok I guess.
Wish they would a slightly more aggressive duck tail type wing for the standard car.

You mean you prefer a spoiler over a wing?
Typically a spoiler is a lip rather than a raised wing on posts.

I just installed the AGM wicker extensions on my Z. They are taller than the factory tall wicker so they looks pretty aggressive. You should check them out.

I just haven't seen one that is pleasing to my eyes. They all may be functional but I am going for cosmetic. A crescent shape like those of McClarens would be nice but has to be the right size and height.
The Trans Am GTA style in the right shape would be nice for a spoiler. With a bridge wing that connects the 2 sides spoiler would be good.

Thanks. I will put that on my kist to shop for. I got the EOS center piece that may blend in well with the more aggressive AGM?
The AGM Hyper GT wing looks all right except it is too aggressive for my liking. Half the height and less over hang would be a great choice. Imo.

Yes wicker center piece can be fitted to the AGM wickers. I have the clear one but I have not yet installed it.
That hyper gt wing is worst than the ZR1 wing IMO lol. They just copied the design of the wing on the aventador svj.
