Re: 2006 Corvette

Yeah, I'm not sure where the t-top reference came from, they haven't had those since 1982.

Mod list looks awesome, I'm starting to think a C6 is in my future, probably stock. I'm actually a little sick of modded cars. Cars are so good from the factory now, that modding just isn't what it used to be. Or maybe I'm just getting old.

It depends on what you are doing. I wish I'd bought a $10k track car and a truck/trailer instead of the Evo. I would have been much better off.

Re: 2006 Corvette

What fuel are you running? Will 93 support 11.5:1 ?

I have sucky gas in Iowa, the best I can get is BP 91 octane with no ethanol. It runs about 22* of timing and 12.3:1 AFR at peak torque and around 25* of timing and 12.6:1 AFR at peak HP up top.

I'm sure my 11.5:1 compression is quite a bit lower than most cars here running 8.5:1 plus lots of boost, probably making an effective 20:1 compression ratio (or at least high teens). The previous owner just about converted it to e85, but with the annoyance of the cold start in the CTS-V I just can't do it in this car, especially with how much it makes on the 91 gas.
