I am needing some suggestions on how to achieve 700 RWHP through the a10 on my ZL1. I want to hit high 9s at the track and I don’t road race the car. Give me some examples of your setups around that HP.

Budget?

Keeping things simple; Pulley, e85, tb, intake, exhaust, and tune

If you dont need or want the 700 all the time, then Nitrous is pretty cheap for the setup..then its just the bottle refill cost.

I would go:
Kong X port
DSX e85 sensor
DSX or Cordes low side
Long tubes
RotoFab CAI
Tune

[ChadSZL1]

I currently have csp long tubes, mid pipe no cats, awe exhaust, intake, 95mm TB, flex sensor, plugs, wires, and jms voltage booster. On 93 601 tire and on E60 644/676 no pulley change. Budget 4-5 grand. I also plan on getting the TCM tuned

1st item, don't waste any money or time in the stock blower
2nd item, bolt on a 2650 of your choice, get it tuned, you are almost there. Intake and cat back should net you the rest

+1

Boost and fuel is the most straightforward path to more power. Put 14 psi to an LT4 (and keep heat in check), even with a stock exhaust, and the gains are significant

In a world of 24 psi stock engines, 14 psi is nothing

[Revalot]

So were talking a A10 with probably 550(Rear) hp, but you want a 150 rear wheel hp boost right ? 2650R is the right answer with 200 hp so 50 hp more. And the car will run cooler, Once my warranty is over and she's paid for, I'm doing 2650R and cam, probably looking at a 230 hp increase. Mine a M6.

He said budget 4-5 though. If he can front the $$ maybe sell the stock blower to get back the difference. I would.

32% cam, 10% lower pulley, valve train, LT headers, 93 octane.

It's going to take more than 700 wheel to run high 9s.

[KingLT1]

Flex sensor
Headers
+30 injectors
LPE DI pump
CAI
95mm tb
E60
Drag pack.

In the right air that should be good for a bottom 10, high 9 second pass. Will run more consistent then a cam, header,93 octane car.

E50-60 makes the same gains in power as a cam/93. Ethanol is much more tolerant of heat and higher manifold temps.

Look up Jorgelovesspeed YouTube channel. Bottom 10's @ 135 with headers, cai, e40, drag pack, tune.

That is similar to
Henessey's HPE 850 93 octane package.

So what would my car make with a 2650 on it and the current mods? I prob couldn’t run much E content. I prefer E over 93 also.

About 700whp, that's the max you're going to get without high side fueling or meth. Porting your blower and/or using a pulley is a much cheaper way to get there than buying a 2650. Now, if you have long term goals to exceed 800whp or more, a 2650 is probably a better buy.

It would be hard of overstate how impressed I am with my Kong LT4X. I believe it's also true that many LT4X owners use some MeOH or EtOH.

As others have said.. Think about your long term goals as to not spend the money twice. If you are not married to the stock sc, sell it for 2k and with your 5k get a 2650. Less heat and less stress.
