^^^ Leave them alone only the fast ones, but i wont know who is fast till i run a few. And i get itchy to run anytime something with power comes by and looks at the car and snickers at it. as long as i can hang with them down the track then i am happy to say io have the glam and the power!
"HANG with" is another term used by some for which the definition has been changed. Used in an attempt to give some credibility to someone who loses.
You are either faster or slower. A winner or loser. This ain't horseshoes.
Sorry,but I couldn't resist.
Ok so to be Blunt i want to give it to one car in particular really bad!! its a stock Z06 with an exhaust other then that its got nothing but a big mouth driver! and if i have to get a charger to do that then that's what i am doing!!

but if he spends 3k on his z06 and gets the cam upgrade, he will take your supercharged car
but then again, other than the supercharger there isn't much more we can do on our na cars that will add much power
this sunday when we went on our run, i ran against a few z06s and stage 4 turbos... i got left in the dust

Your supercharged C4 will be too heavy to beat a Z06, everything being equal. However, much of the performance of a car is driver dependent. I can get better performance from some people's car just as some can get better performance out of mine. Honing your driving skills, particualy learning to shift properly and at the proper time will give you an advantage when everything else is equal.

the z06 are fast and if it has cams and some other relatively cheap mods they are faster
my car just went into the shop for the new v3 vf kit and when i get her back on tuesday i am expecting her to be much faster but definitely not faster than a Z06.
stock Z06 will do 0-60 in 4 seconds and the 1/4 mile in 12.4@116mph from this months car and driver magazine. our supercharged cars will do 0-60 in 4.1seconds and 1/4 in 11.5-11.9seconds
with mods the z06 is much faster
i would just leave the z06 people alone

I am about to put on a plenum with my SC as I do an air filter change (pain in the butt) and wonder if anyone else has done it? I have discussed this with DeputyDog who did a dyno before and after the Plenum with SC and he felt favorable toward it and gained some Hp. I talked to VF and they just have not done any testing. I will report any good, bad, or indifferant results. I am also going to fabricate a plastic sleve that is perforated back in the crowded space that the cone filter sits to protect it from the hoses and wiring harnesses that sit there and facillitate the installation of the new filter. My little simple catch can has kept most of the oil out of the intake but not all. Will

I'm having problems finding a good catch can solution also. My mechanic just installed one with a small vent/filter on top. The problem I'm having is that when i'm pushing hard, like during de's, oil comes through the filter and makes a mess. The filter seems to smoke a bit all the time also. Has anyone else had this problem?
Eliminate the return line to the intake.

There is no return to the intake. The oil is coming from the filter on top of the catch can. Just looks like steam unless driving real hard. I guess the pressure must be pushing oil and air through the filter. I wonder if it would help to drain the oil from the catch can back into the crank case?

Im thinking... that vent tube to the intake is way to large of a diam... The blower is sucking way to much air through the AOS. I think the best way is to reduce the diam of the tube... or put a orifice inline with the tube...
You should not need a catch can if its done properly...
Maybe VF can chime in here...
