The famous Z06, a high performance version of the actual Corvette, is at the same level with Super sports cars as Porsche GT2, Nissan GT-R, and Lamborghini Gallardo. The big 7.0 l engine, with huge power and gigantic torque, delivers an incredible performance, which will make finding an equal rival on the road really hard. With the Akrapovic aftermarket Slip-On exhaust system, made of titanium or stainless steel, optionally equipped with an exhaust valve remote control, the Z06 will now transform into a pure Beast. Additional HP and torque are a given but the sound will make you feel like you are racing the GT1 Corvette. The four huge 125 mm titanium or carbon fiber tail pipes offer a visual image of what is hiding under the car.

Performance
Performance-Evolution
The Evolution system delivers an increase of 14 horsepower and 28
Nm/21 lbs-ft of torque while also increasing throttle response. The
increases in horsepower start at 1,500 rpm and continue all the way to
redline. This is all achieved without removing the catalytic converters.
The most dramatic improvement is in the sound. The Akrapovič exhaust
transforms the car from being “mild mannered” into a true GT1 racer with
a deep tone and aggressive sound. This is all possible without
introducing any droning or harshness that would ruin the driving
experience. By maintaining the “dual-mode” exhaust valves, the low speed
sound is only slightly louder and deeper than stock, but at higher revs
the true character of the big American V8 can be heard. We also offer a
very trick wireless kit that allows for full control of the “dual-mode”
valves right at your fingertips. It is a small controller that plugs
into your cigarette lighter port and is virtually no larger than the
lighter it replaces. With a single press of the button you can have the
valves open at all times for maximum racing sound. One more press and
the system reverts back to its standard “dual-mode.”
