I guess we’ll find out in a month or so! Re ambient temps the challenge is our summers, my gen 5 ZL1 felt as fast as an SS due to heat soak.

Good point! I am more or less referring to traction with the tires. Inter chiller would be my first mod. 2 million Australian’s can’t be wrong.

Agree on the tyres. I’ve run Cup 2s year round here on a few cars with no issues. Will try to keep this car totally stock, been down the modded route a few times and it’s a slippery slope. Plan is to get it serviced, detailed, add PPF and then daily it for a while. Will throw in a few track days too.

I am unsure why you chose supercharged if you experienced it as a hinder in your seasonal climate, and not willing to supplement it in ways?

A lot of the Porsches run Cup 2 NO models, which are identical to the ZLE specs..... and in Dubai of all places, those tires would work well, as would the SC3s...

Will probably default to the Cup2’s in due course as they are more readily available here.

I am referring to the comment of past experience with supercharger heat soak and not the tires.

Let me drive it in the middle of our intense summer and then give you feedback on its performance or maybe lack of. For now the only mod im considering is deleting the secondary cats.

I would recommend this for your car personally. Given the temps the car will be driving in, it would benefit you greatly while also helping with the heat soak issue. I personally recommend it for all ZL1 owners, but it will absolutely benefit you more.

Yep, I take it those mods are aimed at the drag guys. But thank you to the poster for the recommendation, all comments are appreciated

Looks like the suspension is in track mode.

Hope you enjoy the ride. It's phenomenal.

Thanks, I hope so too. Yes the struts have been rotated. It also has girodisks up front so I assume the previous owner did give it a proper work out or 2.

They use the inter-chiller in Australia, for a lot of the daily drivers.
