yep but an aps tt can be fitted to z06 
peter (from aps on corvette forums ):
I think it's too early to say that the stock comp ratio is too high for forced induction at relatively low boost pressure, I think the ZO6 would make awesome torque and power at even 5 PSI boost (with the large turbochargers and effcient intercooling) with a safe/correct ignition timing and air fuel ratio strategy.
APS is developing a specfic intercooled twin turbo system to suit the Z06, Time and more testing will prove this one way or the other.
I think a large twin screw would be awesome though I doubt there's a large enough twin screw available to support the mass air flow required for a 427 cube engine (you require huge mass air flow to produce around 650 to 700 whp at 6 - 7 PSI), a pair of 60 lb per minute turbochargers would be ideal on the ZO6 engine and would easily generate around 700 whp at low boost, 6 to 7 PSI, all good.
The ZO6 twin turbo system will be absolutely awesome, with highly efficient air to air intercooling I believe that the stock ZO6 twin turbo engine will produce at least another 200 whp very comfortably on 93 octane fuel at very low boost pressure, all good.The Z06 kit should be very similar to the C6 kit. Probably just a change in the shape of the exhaust ports on the cast manifolds. Other than that, the engines are physically the same on the exterior as an LS2 engine.The stock LS2 engine with APS twin turbos will generate around 550 whp at 5 to 6 PSI tuned for 93 octane fuel with a free flowing 3'' exhaust exhaust on a dyno jet - the peak power is important though the power under the curve tells the real story on the street.

I know all about them haha, i was just saying about the Z06 specifically, i mean the Z06 and regular C6 are VERY diff motor wise, i just thought they were speculating on how it will run, ah well. Im sure we will start seeing some kits come out shortly and insane numbers

You may be right, don't know very much about those cars, sure a TT z06 will be a tire killer
