Teammate Mac proud owner of a brand new 2009 Z06 with only 700 miles on it drove over from the state he lives in for us to custom tune, add our smart water/meth system and install a CAI.

He bought a Calloway Honker CAI, 2 gauge A pillar POD, and then bought from us the N/A 3D smart w/meth contoller with touch screen and our new 220 PSI w/meth pump and nozzle for us to install.

Whoever wrote the honker install document should be shot.
They instruct installer to yank the radiator shroud out and the trannie cooler, then cut the shroud and reinstall it all back again bana

Screw that, we did the install without ripping anything out.

The end if the airbridge then is to connect to their MAF coupler that then connects to the stock rubber piece to throttlebody. mad
That end was out of round and was hell getting the coupler on.

Images below show all that and what the stock and honker look like plus how the honker looks when installed.

One image shows the install of our HIGH PSI w/meth pump and how all the fluids on any C6 is jammed together on drivers side.

The customer had bought HP tuners and that is what he wanted us to do the custom tune.

We downloaded the PCM and then when we went to tune the flash file Hptuners puked and said contact their support. sex

This is a 2009 Z06 yet Hptuners edit took was saying the car was a 2008 even though the VIN # was correct for a 2009 Z06

Of course Hptuners gives simple ways to buy their product but does NOT publish a phone number to call them so we had to send a email to them and hold out breath to see if they have a fix so we can custom tune this 2009 Z06 nono

JR, so where are you installing the pump for the w/m? I can see the frame and WW reservoir. Is there a removable panel like the C5 in the inner fender liner of the left front?

would the tap into the reservoir be better suited to a 90 degree connector?

There is enough freeplay for the hose to be straight out of the bulkhead fitting at bottom of WW tank. A 90 deg fitting would have been OK but I did not have one.

There is a lower inner fender panel BUT since the WW tank is so large down there as the image shows the pump had to be mounted to the right of WW tank causing to remove most of the left fender bolts and then tilting bottom outward.

I did NOT take the left headlight out to remove the whole fender but enough of fender was loose to tilt bottom away and mount the w/meth pump, do the wiring and hose install.

We had to wait another day to get some software fix from Hptuners that allowed tuning a 2009 Z06. What we got worked but did NOT support all the functions we see in using LS2edit. sex

The results below show with the water/meth, Honker CAI and then our custom tuning the Hp gain to 573 HP and torque up to 510 ft/lbs and as you see the test run was ONLY to 6,000 RPMs and to 118 MPH with no dead stop launch so the numbers will be higher with a hard zero to 130 MPH testrun.

Teammate Mac who owned this 2009 Z06 passed away on 1/3/9 from a painful illness he had suffered for almost 2 years.

We are glad he had a chance to own his dream car and enjoy it even for a few months.

Mac now you can speed all you want for BBG speeds and not worry about getting a ticket.

We'll all miss you buddy !
