2018 ZL1 A10 Build
 

Here is my 2018 ZL1 A10 build Journal. I have enjoyed it in stock trim. Made some hits at the drag strip all stock, then with just a RotoFab air box. Also made some 1/2 mile runs with it stock. So at just under 4,000 miles the mods begin. Below is a baseline dyno, all stock.

Here are the first round of Mods for this ZL1.

Magnuson Heartbeat TVS2300 LT4 Blower upgrade.

Kit came with 80mm pulley, so will tune that first then will spin the pump faster.

Magnuson Snout for 103mm throttle body. It's a larger casting not ported / doesn't need it.

Nick Willaims Billet 103mm throttle body.

RotoFab CAI w/dry filter

American Racing Headers, full exhaust system, cat delete, 2" primary tubes / ceramic coated.

Tracy Lewis Monster Catch can, painted Hyper Blue

Results;

Stock A10 base line on my ZL1 was 555hp and 559tq. With LT4 Heartbeat and supplied 85mm pulley, complete ARH exhaust/no cats & Rotofab, achieved 641hp and 625tq on 93 octane.

But only got a few pulls in and Matt the Calibrator says that he's still dealing with Torque Mgmt issues. So more to follow soon.

Very nice!
