With the guidance offered in this video, you'll be well-equipped to supercharge your driving experience and unleash the full power of your C8. Highly recommended!
Once again you did a great informative rundown of many of the options out there. Now for the Debby downer part: I will have to say the passion of "Power" Mods on cars to me is now dead. The non-stop greed and no doubt insider price setting then add in new regs especially in CA has killed it for me. #1 Most of the c8 buyers get screwed with ADMs. #2 The tuning process is a joke and cost way too much #3 I dont know what happened but a few years ago I bought a procharger for my c7 for $7K and now like magic almost all setups are #23K+ #4 I dont know how anything will be CARB in CA when they passed that law that cars cant have a non-MFG tune. Even if it pees rainbows and flowers. #5 The c8s are not easy to work on and have half shafts and clutch issues , ticking , even on stock power. Some engines have let go which leaves to the biggest issue and thats losing the warranty. Paying $25K for an SC and then having a trans go at 7-10K? a pop can hurt. The only option I would think if buying new is Callaway getting the car and max warranty from them. But Realistically I think we (non-racers) are the point of why bother. It would be a pain how things are now, but I would sell the c8 "if I wanted more power" and pay the 20K or more and go to a z06 or E-ray(some do sell MSRP).. or if your a baller get on the zr1 list. Everything is so complicated its best just to get the higher model and get the extended warranty and live worry free.
This thing will be a beast NA build if and only if the rpm limiter is upped to 7k+ rpm. The c8 is basically a super car and it is absolutely insane the the lt2 only revs up to 6500 rpm. Coming from coyote mustang this is sorely sorely missed

What is the difference between power at the crank versus at the wheel?
There is around 13% horsepower loss at the wheel because of drivetrain losses
Hey,mate. Good job on the video. We just reached out to you via Instagram for inquiring an LED lighting review. Hope hear from you soon
