Default Twin turbo Z06?

I love the new Z06 but would love to see a turbo version (without the blower).

anyone working on this conversion?

Be patient. EcoBoost will find you whether you want it to or not. Enjoy this limited lifetime of positive displacement OEM superchargers.

Yeah, if rumors of the C8 Z06 with the twin turbo are correct, that's one to look out for. I'm still not digging the mid-engine move, but that thing should rock if they do it right.

The ME C8 will offer the engineers some options as they have more room out back so we will see...personally I think the first C8 Z will still have the LT4 engine, albeit modified for mid engine usage...but we will know in a couple years.

He's asking about a C7Z TT, not speculation on a C8. OP there are quite a few turbo'd Zs running around with custom setups. Can contact any of the reputable shops and get an idea of cost and power. Also hellion has a single turbo setup...

Didn't Mighty Mouse do a twin Z? It was one of the vendors that was talking about doing it.
