So slight context, this is my first corvette. 2013 C6 grand sport (manual). Bought it with 11k miles about a month ago and just hit 17k. I did kooks long tube headers, catless mid pipe, corsa extreme exhaust and tune. Made 460whp on a wheel dyno and absolutely love it (BTR stage 3 cam next) but here comes the questions……

As I get deeper into the rabbit hole of this car I’m starting to learn these cars are fairly “unreliable” once you start getting up in power so I’m curious to know….. how much power. I’m really curious to know what the power rating/ how much abuse the clutch, trans, torque tubes, etc can handle. What is also the mandatory maintenance and any preventative things that I need to do.

I DRIVE THE CAR VERY HARD but I wait till oil temp is at least 175 and I have YET to do a clutch drop but I do take it to redline or close to it. Any input is greatly appreciated!
