I actually really like this thread. I don't think we have seen two 6th gen verts (SS and ZL1) with builds like you two. Kudos to you both for your builds.

If it wasn't for Ricco I probably would have stopped with a Rotofab...now I cant wait till we catch up for a run at the track.

I wonder if they will let us run with the top down and golf clubs in the passenger seat?

My results for phase 1 are in.

Dyno: 705whp and 695wtq @8.5psi...through the A8.

I can add a couple more pounds of boost and jump to about 750whp with virtually no changes and then we can add a track tune for race fuel and will be in the 820-850whp range.

As it stands, however, running on street tires let's just say there is very little value in adding more power. I might hold off to up the boost until I get some better shoes on back. I do like having a Camaro setup that will run in low 10's.

Great numbers on only 8.5psi! Congrats!

So my tuner did the first pull on the dyno, running real rich and low timing it made 813rwhp

Got to do something with the PCV system before tuning continues to make sure we dont blow out any seals.
