Next Round Of Mods
well I have had my 17 zl1 M6 for about 9 months. Already put the roto fab and American racing 17/8 with their long system into factory muffler. Sounds amazing. Called Ted Jannetty and he gave me some great advice. I ordered the flex/fuel kit, voltage booster, throttlebody (jre's) Ted is doing the tune for me. I decided not to swap any pulleys. I have never dynoed the car but I may afterwards. I think the fuel and tune should wake it up a bit.

So what I mean is he maximizes the LT4's capability. Heat is the number 1 culprit for power loss BUT Ted has the knowledge and experience from what I have seen and read. As for the Pulleys, I'd consider upgrading the upper pulley. Talk to Ted but he can tune your car to still be well within the safe limits. Good luck!

I have driven it for months without a tune. We only did a rear cat delete as I hate codes. It runs like a scaled dog. It is running fat so I can't wait for Ted's tune. He took the time to talk to me good dude. I feel very good about doing business with him. Sadly no local tuners I feel comfortable with

Ted has helped me on stuff in the past, and I like the way he goes into builds for these cars, too.
There have been threads in the past (and even a newer one right now) that go into problems a tracks and road courses because of heat and mods. It seems to me that builds, like this one, that Ted has invested a lot of time and research into, are probably a lot more effective that some of the other combinations that are out there, where boost is added, and heat exchangers (and such) are swapped. I like the way Ted optimizes what GM gives us, and just polishes it a little more to get the most out of it. I think the E' is most beneficial, too, from what I can ascertain.

Ted told me we already have a blower spinning 20000 rpm. To overdrive it creates more heat which is the enemy of our cars. I am excited to get his system and tune

I’m looking for some guidance right now for missing my 19 ZLE, I have 2 shops telling me 2 different thing (do upper pulley and don’t) I currently have Soler TB, Dry Roto Fab and Corsa Extreme+ Catback.
Was debating doing: Kooks 1 7/8 with catted connection pipes 160 stat Catch Can Tune Was told it should yield around 40-60whp and 80-100wtrq. Was told the upper pulley can cause slip issues, not sure if I should add the ATI 15% damper kit into all of that or what. This is just a street car if that helps with any guidance, looking for cost effective power to be around 650+whp and 700wtq
