105 traps should do it.

I am sure everyone has had thier day in the sun against an A4 2.72 geard slug C5, but that is way different from the M6. night and day.

heads cam intake should give you the go you want, or a nice shot of juice for the economy route.

there are always freaks out there. My friends stock c5 would really run hard. around 110 mph based on who he hangs with on the street.

how does the C5 Vette compare to the Z06 Vette I saw about 10 Z06 Vetts run on a dyno jet down in Mass last weekend. They all pulled 350, a few had 351 or 352. There was one that pulled 359.

depends on the year of the z06

I have seen as fast as high 11s bone stock at high teen traps
and then there are crappy drivers in poor air who go high 12s at 112 ish

to hang with a z06, you definitely need good heads cam + something else, be it ALOT of weight reduction, the bottle or some more cubes AKA a stroker

Or you could run boltons and a whole bunch of spray, Or a blower setup putting out 380+ at least on a full weight car
