Try the jba cats first. It's a lot easier to take them off of you don't like them than it is to cut a weld if you burn up a factory cat.

There's a tread in the DIY section where you can wire in a 3 way switch to the NPP exhaust. You can then have your exhaust flaps closed all the time and routed through the mufflers. I did this on...

Was that an 'I told you so'?

Wild card may have been a bad choice of words. I can't see how the same part can perform so different. My guess is those seeing 700+ on a stock pump are either running...

There's so much torque it's hard to kill. However expect her to get loose a bit if she's giving too much throttle and too quick on the clutch.

I personally like the manual because the wife can't...

Fuel pressure seems to be the wild card lately. Some are adding BAP around 625 rwhp and others are getting away with close to 750 rwhp on stock pump and injectors.

I'd take the interior in a heartbeat and the 10 speed if I was an auto guy, but I'm not. Other than that I prefer the 5th gen, including the LSA and bullet proof drivetrain. No ragrets (pun intended).

There wasn't an identical corvette power train for our ZL1s, but when they initially said at least 556 based on the CTSV, we got 580. So I wouldn't be surprised to see 650+ this time.

I'm hopeful it has a bigger blower as well, but if it does wouldn't it be named something other than a LT4?

For me it just doesn't wow me like the 5th Gen did. And looking at HP numbers alone, the 5th Gen was the top dog in 2012. The 6th Gen, while likely faster, is still behind the Hellcat and...

Mine was replaced under warranry with mods and a tune. In my experience, be upfront and honest and you shouldn't have an issue. Print off the TSB as well to bring in.

That's actually not as bad as I thought it was going to be. I figured that cheap plastic would have melted and been sucked into the rotors. How the hell was that engine getting any air?
