........ and it's killing me! I love my ZL1 but I've already gotten use to the stock HP but of course I want more.

And yet at the same time I'm trying to resist because I want to keep my factory warranty.

What's a guy suppose to do? lol

Giving in is the easy part. Not giving in is the hard part!! Go drive a cavalier for a few days... Then you'll appreciate the z a lot more

I do that all the time with the woman's Mazda 3 lol

But then he'll get used to that and need headers, and then he'll get used to that and get a cam, and then he'll get used to that and upgrade the supercharger...

Drive it for a year or 10k miles, if a factory part was weak, it will have shown up by then.

After that, just choose wisely.

bring it out to bithlo tonight so we can see if you really got the hang of the power. lol. wednesday and fridays are test n tune night and it would be nice to see another ZL-1 out there.

Well, I bought a daily driver and thought driving a slower car each day would make me appreciate the fact the ZL1 already has a ton of power and convince me it doesn't need upgrading.

Now, whilst it certainly does make me appreciate the ZL1 more, the problem is that now I'm beginning to think I can have it sent off to a shop for some serious upgrades as I don't need it each day....

So it worked the other way round than I planned haha..

There are two schools of thought...

1.) This is a 580 HP car with a 100,000 mile powertrain warranty. Why mess with it?

2.) This is a 580 HP $60K car...who buys that kind of car and can't afford to fix it if they break it?

Not saying either is wrong or right.....
