Correct me if I'm wrong... but you're getting 453 torque and 416 hp on the dyno now?

It sounds like you are just in the process of installing the headers so I assume that dyno run was before the exhaust mod?


I was doing some calculations and was trying to achieve the same or greater torque to weight ratio as my current car ( in sig)

The Torque figure I need:

3900 / 8.53 = 457 tq ( wheel)



3900 / 9.90 = 393 hp ( wheel)
( already achieved from factory)

My current car is torque heavy, so any extra horsepower will be great for the track and icing on the cake...

I just want ensure I get that daily driver THRUST you get for lane changes that only torque can give you....

I think if I can get to these numbers without going to ZL1 $$$, I will stick to ordering a 1LE instead of a ZL1...

I keep hearing about heatsoak in the LT4 after the first couple laps...

Just curious if you could ballpark what parts and labour $$$ you think it would come out to to get at least those numbers.

I only ask since you're right in the middle of the process and are in Vegas. (I've heard it can be cheaper getting stuff done there....)
It's more responsive after a tune with the parts.
Everything is installed currently, just waiting on HP tuners to send a file so we can get a better tune on it.
Then I'll post the final numbers on this set up since it's more.. "budget friendly" if you would.


Parts and labor I've spend about $5,000 on it (including shipping)
I can find the receipt for everything to give a better break down on parts.. About 1,000 of that came from installing the headers.
The stock dyno had 416 Hp and 453 tq at the wheels.

My whole reason to waiting for the "final" dyno is that I want that file from HP tuners and the proper intake should help from CAI. Rather give a good sheet with no "if's, and's or but's" on it

Go with the 1LE, I know plenty of guys ditching the stock supercharger on their Z06 and going with a pro charger
