I wouldn't even put an aftermarket air filter on a GT350. In the 9 months I had the car it went through 2 engines. Can't imagine how screwed I would have been if I had pulled the trigger on the E85 Lund tune which was the plan a month after I brought the car home. A power adder will only exacerbate the problems these engines have.

My gt350 was replaced with a 2017 Zo6. Aside from sounding like a suped-up tractor the car has been amazing. It will run circles around the GT350 in every way on or off the track.

Don't get me wrong, the GT350 is an amazing car which is why I still lurk here. If they can sort out the reliability problems with the $25,000 voodoo I would consider owning one again but never without a warranty.

Couldn’t keep my z06 from overheating on the track. I would get 1 lap in before it went into limp mode. The opening in the front is not big enough and the superercharger is too small. They have it spinning too fast for the cooling. The Z screams on the street but not great for the track. Putting a supercharger on this car will perk it up. It stays cool at the track and is fun to drive.

Nice looking car for sure. I like the 350 in blue.
Traded my z06 for the gt350

I love the z06, it was my first choice until I test drove it and discovered my 6’6” frame would probably require neck surgery after 2-3 speed bumps. It was doable, but not comfortable.

We don’t have smog tests in AL. What’s a CARB sticker mean?
