FS: 2018 ZL1 A10 (silver/6k miles/ bolt on mods)

Car has been sold

Just figured I’d post this here before I take an offer from my dealer. Looking to sell my 2018 ZL1 A10. I’m the original owner, and the car has 5900 miles on it as of this...

Yeah, I’m not claiming my car is insanely fast or anything. But for a few easy bolt ons and essentially stock reliability, I’m really happy with how it turned out. And at least for me, I see zero...

I had a similar dilemma. Buy a SS 1LE and supercharge it, or go with a ZL1. Since I’d done a bunch of pretty serious stock bottom end builds in the past, and decided I needed a break, I bought a...

These aren’t my photos, but the vent I mentioned is covered by the foam I’ve circled. The hose that makes a 90 degree bend (seen in bottom pic) is the hose that was pushed up against the vent on my...

Low boost/power? Check your bypass valve solenoid

Figured I’d post this as maybe it’ll help others out.

I haven’t been driving my ZL1 much these days due to other car projects, but last weekend I took a buddy out for a few hard pulls. I felt...

The problem is that it seems to affect most ZL1s. I swear the 2 other 2018s I drove (an A10 and an M6) before I ordered mine did it. Mine did it on day one — or as soon as I started making pulls...

I’m still really disappointed in how they implemented this. This was a great opportunity, and it’s half assed at best. I really don’t like that there’s no tangible evidence that the flash has even...

If it’s a legitimate pull and not the weird rear steer / fishtail thing a bunch of us have, then I’d just start with the basics:

1- Cross swap the tires side to side to see if it changes...

I don’t think anyone’s mentioned it, but I’m betting there was some throttle closure going on in 30 degree temps on the stock pull. These ECUs are sneaky like that. Whether it was doing the same...

I’d have to go dig through my old parts, but I’m 99% sure the LT4 thermostat is 89 degrees C, or about 192 degrees.

That said, I feel a thermostat swap on a ZL1 is well worth it if you’re doing...

I don’t think it’s going to do anything for the launch bog on the M6 cars. Sure, it could help the light throttle bog some report. But again, all it’s doing it making the ECU think you’re pushing...

I’d say that’s spot on. All these things do is change how the ECU sees your input from the accelerator pedal. All the torque limits and controls are still in place. This is the same thing the...

I don’t see any reason why it wouldn’t. Ride height is the only thing I could see being an issue, since they are taller than stock. At stock ride height, I’d think it would be just fine.

I guess it depends how hardcore you want to go. I have a set of 17”x10.5” Race Stars with 305/45/17 ET Street Rs, and they work and fit very well. I also got a matching set of 18”x5” for the front,...

His car is one of the few bone stock cars to break into the 10’s, so I don’t think he’s missing any power. I think tire wear and temperature plays a big role here. I definitely have traction...
