I think exhaust and downpipes would definitely help. Not sure what kind of horsepower it would make, maybe another 20-30 horsepower?

Realistically how fast do you think you could get your times and what kinds of risks would be associated with quick accelerations?

Risk wise the thing i'd be worried about would probably be transmission issues from the extra torque created.

I think if i had grip i could probably run a 12.0-12.2.

What is it, the ZL1 Camaro that runs the 10sp as well? Makes a bit more torque than us. This 10sp is stout. With a good launch, a 111 trap could pull an 11.

I'm not THAT worried he just asked what the risks were. I don't truly think there's risk there, if anything the catalytic converters are going to melt first with all that extra airflow through them.

Also the one in the ZL1 is a 10R90 moniker. So most likely it has upgraded clutchpacks and a beefier converter similar to the 6L90 in the outgoing car and the cadillac CTS-V

I don't believe i can cut the 60 ft required for an 11.9 without going below a 1.60 which i doubt i will ever hit.
