Which one?????

Im looking at bumping the power in my 14 ZL1
I am torn between the 3 companies

JDP
Lingenfelter
Hennessey

All make kits to bump it to about 700 HP
I still want it to be steetable and dependable like it is now

Pluses or minuses on these 3?

Thanks

JDP, very good company and they are closer to you.

Lingenfelter is also very good.

I’d consider ADM, they have done a tone of these. Talk to Andy...

Hennessy, not sure about them, I’d choose the others first..

All three probably will meet your needs. I'd go with Lingenfelter or Hennessey for overall quality, and you probably could go to any HP level with the two if you have the money.

Have you considered JRE ZL-1 performance packages?

We number them by Rear Wheel HP gains instead of Crank HP but can easly convert them for you.

Our 125 RWHP package makes 700 Crank HP, this is what I run in my personal ZL-1 on the Road coarse, super fast, super reliable, proven HP.

We select only the highest quality parts for our performance packages and offer unmatched support and custom tuning for a true Plug and Play Performance Package.

Feel free to give us a call 203-753-7223

Won't go wrong with JRE. JDP is good as well. Lingenfelter and Hennessy...eh, I don't really like the big shops, but I'd take Lingenfelter over the two. Premade packages by big name shops aren't always the right way to go for your car. You'd be best off to give us a goal you have and things you want to keep in mind and then go from there. Have a look at Vengeance Racing, they are, IMO, the best of the "Biggish" shops out there with proven packages that are after more than just peak dyno numbers.

Thank you, I have the utmost respect for JDP, However JRE is not affiliated with JDP which this (JRE/JDP) gives the impression that we are one in the same.

I know it is likely a typo but I wanted to clarify for the new people.

JRE, Jannetty Racing Ent. Inc, is a full service Speed shop located in Waterbury CT for over 31 years.

We do appreciate your support.

Ted.

Fixed it Ted. I know the two of you aren't affiliated, I guess I should have used "or" instead of "/".
