Suppliers to OEs don't do anything is complete isolation of their customer. The customer issues the requirements is terms of performance, relia/durability, cost, timing, quality, etc.

Oh, btw did you see the latest (german) sport auto? The tested your fabled Z06, and it was slower (just) than the 997 GT3s around the NS. Horst von Saurma did a 7:49 (vs. 7:48 & 7:47 for the GT3 and RS). For reference, the M3 CSL did a 7:50...
