why not buy a used low milage ZL1 instead for $45K? And sell the other Camaro to Car Max?

What is an average price of a good SC install? Near $10k installed with fuel and such?

I have been intrigued as of late to SC the SS but pricing creeps up there real quick. I don't have crazy hp dreams but would like to get just below 600 as i daily drive the car in the summer. I prefer the look of stock instead of adding a whipple or magnuson. I reached out to ADM and got a price back of $7900 for an entire system with a new ZL1 supercharger, LT4 injectors, high pressure pump. I would still need someone to install and tune.

At least 10k to start if you add any extra's. This is why i never went F/I. Once you add headers and exhaust it can be 14k or more. And no more warranty. One bad tune and BOOM.

I will have to agree with Fraxum on this. I was looking at going down the s/c mod rabbit hole too with my 2016 2SS but did the figures on the costs, etc and decided against it. Then one day searching on Cars.com I found a slightly used ZL1 with a decent price and the rest is history. The loan for the ZL1 was what I was going to pay to mod my SS that worked out for me. Everyone’s situation is different though!

Prime example... Whipple kits are 7k msrp. Likely can be had cheaper. I bought mine for 5500.00 with Hptuners. I sold the HPt because I already had it and ended up into my Whipple for 5k. So I did Whipple and Fuel system upgrade for what it cost to buy a Whipple at MSRP. Shop smart, look for deals, and you can save a lot of money.

The other option is to go looking at junk yards for totaled ZL1s and just snatch up the supercharger lol
When I was in my early 20s and had my first car, an '85 Regal, I actually loved going to the local junkyards to find stuff for it. Just walk into the back of the yard with your tools, pull whatever you wanted or needed off whatever was back there, bring it back up to the cashier, and you paid for it and went on your way. Many times working on your car right there in the parking lot. Those days are gone I'm sure. |

Is this kind of what you are referring to? Is an LT4 Fuel pump and injectors required as well? https://www.tpsmotorsports.com/tps-m...camaro-ss.html |

2017 ZL1 This one looks exactly like my 2018 A10. Still to me a smarter buy than adding an SC to an SS. And adding a SC does not increase the SS resale. And many will not go near it.
