Kinda hard to tell, but with the Magnaflow mufflers with the rock wool there was very little drone. Just enough to give a C8 Z06 exhaust experience where there is that exotic sound in cabin.
But if I had to imagine what a flat plane crank V6 might sound like from Italy..... this would probably...
I did go with whatever SOS flex fuel system and full ECU it had at the time a decade ago. Forgot which one, but I think it was the 2nd generation version. I think the fuel fails are stock. Injectors are something like 1300CC ID ones since I plan on going 15psi and it was the upgraded fuel pump...
I have tried the ones from Turtlewax, Zymol, and the newest one from RainX.
Seems to work well, but lately I mixed the spray waxes with other graphene and ceramic ones and it does seem to last longer. 3 months and the surface still has that smooth just waxed feeling. No ill effects.
This is on...
Dunno about the rubber in the gas tank with E85, but I have had it in my car for just under 5 years.
I have left e85 sit in the tank for 6 months with some stabilizers mixed with it that I got from Wal Mart. No apparent issues.
I am running 13psi on a reduced compression ratio of 9.2:1 and...
Get the IC, larger TB and flex fuel and then retune and u will really start to have the silly smile.
I kept my stock air filter box and replaced the filter with a K&N.
I don't think there is that much of a power difference with my setup and that of any aftermarket setup since this is a fixed...
I will wait for the most powerful C8 to be released and decide between that and the C8Z as a stablemate to the NSX.
Plus give it a few years to figure out the kinks and what not.
NSX wasn't just poorly marketed, it just didn't really accel at anything performance related for the price.
Other rear mid engine cars have more or less caught up with reliability but delivers on value to fun ratio.
Any long term updates?
If you are able to make 450~500rwhp and 350rwtq it will put the dumbest grin on your face from ear to ear.
After a decade the power never gets old. Modern day power to weight ratio of a current super car but with the analog raw feeling of a 90's Japanese car.
Wow. didn't even realize that I was a post whore with that many posts.
i think since the Facebook groups, and at one point Prime was heavily policed, I and many others kinda lost gradual or immediate interests on Prime.
Besides, I wasn't really learning anything interesting.
For example...
I will make a hard pass on the z07 package.
thought of curbing carbon wheels make me cringe.
Also the wing needs to be MASSIVE IMHO. Go big or go home.
I am adding a C8 for sure to my collection. Waiting on the rest of the line ups to come out so I can decide between a Z06 or something higher.
Oh and will give it a couple of years to work out the usual bugs in most new performance cars.
Z06 powerplant with a flat plane crank + positive...
