No you didn't. You read BS.



I wish I could find the post, but then again, I guess I was wrong to take the CEG-er at his word about what he saw at the dyno, silly me Its "possible" that the exhaust manifolds on the LS-7 are restrictive enough to keep the hp down, alot of GM cars were/are like that. I don't mean to bring up my old car, God knows I'll get ripped for it, but a single turn of the wastegate was good for 10 hp and the stock turbo was good for 22 psi of boost, BIG power gain for nothing, so the header install is valid IMO Todd, but thats just my .02 cents. As far as the GT being the "cooler" car, yeah you don't see em' around, thats for sure and an extra $90K over the ZO6 IS ALOT OF MONEY to pay just to be noticed



Here you go Roger...

Not 700 whp but really not very far down the road...only time will tell.
