Wanted, Z06 Killer! What to do; Evoms or Protomotive?

First off, stock TT's weigh well over 3,500 lbs (regardless of what the brochure might say). Also, for a TT to make 500 to the wheels, it needs around 610 HP to the crank. Drivetrain loss for a AWD TT is around 18.5% (610 x .815 = 501 AWHP).
A stock weight, AWD TT with only 560-580 at the crank (456-472 awhp) is not enough to beat a stock C6 Z06 with a good driver. The typical 600 crank HP TT's run mid to high 11's and trap in the 124-126 range. There are examples of cars out there that don't follow this trend, but they are not the norm.
As joetwint (who owns a C6 Z06 as well as a modded 996TT) already stated, it take 600+ crank HP (at least) for a TT to become a stock "Z06 killer", as the original poster wants.

I love the Z06, but on a sunny day I'm not kidding when I say you'll see 4 or 5 just around the house, but there is only 1 Turbo running around (so I gotta do some mods quickly so they will stop picking on me).

The key to beeting a Z in "mexico" is from a dig. At a roll, most TT will have a problem except the highly modded.
I corrected my 1/4 mile time above. Too many drugs too early in the day

when it comes to 1/4 racing... drag radials are a mod in my opinion.

Its a non performance mod just like putting skinnies on the front and or setting up ur suspension correctly.
U can easily use DRs tires... heat them up.... no issues with launching like in the P car nor worries about the gay PSM ....
just my opinion...

So do we call r-compounds that come on factory vehicles "mods"? The PSC's that come with GT2's and the new 997 GT3 will shave a significant amoumt of time off of a drag run or a roadcourse.
Sure, they come from the factory that way..but they are definitely an unfair advantage when compared to regular old street tires.

It's just like when people try to say the GT500, TT porsche, supra's are modded because they come with a turbo/supercharger.
