the 04's made mid 360's rwhp. GM set them leaner than any of the other years. you are going to have your hands full. I think you will be seeing his tail lights.
No way in hell both of my brothers have Z06's (2002,2004) and I have never came close to them. I have a stinger and FIPK. They would both beat me when they were stock pretty bad. Now they both have an intake, exhaust, headers, and a tune and its not even close.
A pulley and a good tune should have your snake charming a Z06. Without more boost, it's hard to make up for the weight difference! With your cold airand your exhaust, all you need is more boost. Maybe a 2.8 or if you feel extreme, maybe a 2.93 upper and a 4lb lower!!
If you are messing with a moded Z06 you must have a KB or whipple and pulley's. IMO
Depends....I say just go for it....you might be surprised. There are many cases where a CAI and exhaust Cobra has pulled slightly on a Z06 OR ran door to door.
Driver has allot to do with it....if you're a good driver with only a CAI, you might be able to keep up.

If its the 04, he will beat you for sure. I recently ran an 04 w/ longtubes, straightpipes, intake, and a big cam. He was not totally tuned, but he only pulled 2 cars from 20 and 40 to 130. He was also on r compound tires and CCW's.
I also ran an 01 with catback and intake and pulled him by 4-5 cars with traction problems. With a pulley you can handle most of the mildly modified ones.
With only CAI, he will pull you no doubt.

When my car had just a JLT CAI, Predator, and Dynomax cat-back I smoked two stock Z06's at the track. Walked em easily on street tires. I talked to the owners and both said they dynoed 360RWHP. Both ran 112 BTW while my car was almost 115.
you'll lose!soonerjoe said:
Go from 2nd gear at 40mph and stretch your 3rd gear wayyyyy out.....thats your best chance!
You'll definately have your hands full. He should win by like 4-5 cars i would think. If you had intake, x pipe, catback, and maybe a short throw it would be close... jmo
my suggestion is get our in front real fast and make him play catch up... if not well youll see those tail lights
If i was you i would race him, but don't but any money on it.
