I've owned both as well, the SS has enough power for the street, but the ZL1 is useful for M driver smackdowns. Then again you could easily find yourself with a big speeding ticket or worse

Why it is horseshit? You don't like the results? Run your own test then

You should have paid attention and run their Ultra can which is designed for higher flow

Haha - of course you want it to die, so you don't have to admit when you're wrong. MM huggers will continue to deny the facts

These aren't engines with 100,000 miles either, in most cases garage queens < 20,000 miles.
