Z06 vs Supercharged Stingray
Pretty cool video I came across on YouTube. Z06 has ARH headers, an intake (not sure which one), and a tune. Stingray has an ECS 1500 blower and headers.

That's about right .. ECS's claimed 700whp kit (headers/SC Kit/tune) vs low 600whp Z06.

My experience with similar setup but running the A&A V3TI blower headers/Meth/Cam on my 15 C7 A8 but a much larger Gap of day light while out front. It might be more interesting if I run up on a C7 Z06 pullied, tuned and cam.

My car is a ecs stingray with meth and headers. Only 8lbs makes 610rwhp. I raced my friends fathers M7 Z06 and pulled him pretty good. He was shocked lol thank you ECS!

Power is power ... Those modded stingrays are making more power off the rip. Weigh less, and as some may claim scientific aero disadvantages ...
The LT1 will make more power at lower boost too due to the CR. But the ceiling in the Z is MUCH higher once you start talking about equally modded and beyond vehicles.

I had the Boosted Lt A&A kit was over timed to get 618 rwhp. Caused
lots of blow by. Then when the timing was moved back and the car had roughly 570. At 570 rwhp and without the meth or fuel system the Boosted C7 is slower.
I rather buy the Z06 and have the Z06. It a great car. Superior to the
boosted Z51 I had.
The factory package is far superior. As a driver and the looks department.
The lt4 engine is better as well.
I can put distance on a stock Z06 with just the Halltech CAI.
The extra air makes the Z06 a faster car.
GM was really dumb reusing the stingray intake and filter.
Just not enough air for a blown motor. The engine runs cooler with
the Halltech as well. Callaway sees this and uses Halltech intakes on their cars.

Yep then you need the meth. Or some fuel system work.

blah blah blah!! You are the kind of guy that HAS TO THINK whatever they own at the moment is the best! I don't think I am the only poster here to notice how annoying your posts are lol Also, you say that NOW because you bought a Z06 but this is what you said when you bought a boosted stingray
You go and get a kit installed where I installed a few myself.
This Z06 is Corvette number 9 . You are way late to "the GAME"
My z06 has been in the garage for 18 months and the Z51 gone for longer.
HAHA! I never BOUGHT a boosted Stingray! I bought a new Z51 and
had a for the first time a blower installed. I know what they are all about.
You make error's and learn things in life along the way.
Then you pull my comments made when the Z06 wasn't EVEN on the street yet.
Which were right on! The big centri's on the Z06 are very fast.
Your car is not one of those either.
I don't need quite that fast and rather be a little slower and no issues.
Comments made about my experience with a C6Z06 with a centri kit. Don't race one of those you will be smoked in your Centri C7. They are I think the fastest cars running 8's.
Then the KING Corvette is the C6z06 Atomic fusion's.
Don't get me wrong I like centri's just not Lt1's.
The Centri C7 is not for me the Lt1 engine is Corvette's worst.
I'm sure your dealing with oil issues as well.
I sold it and bought a Z06. If want to have your boosted C7 and have the hassle of adding meth. Be my guest.
I made my choice and would not go back.
Tha factory Z06 is a better package. That is fact the boosted C7 will never be as good. You are hanging in the wrong forum as well!

If you're going to make useless posts like this one, I would appreciate that you don't spam my thread. Go post somewhere else until you learn to stop arguing in every thread. The point of this was to share a few friendly races between two awesome cars. It wasn't so we can argue about which Corvette is better.

Nice video, thanks for posting it.
It says the Stingray had our kit and headers so it probably made 550/575 RWHP.
Add meth and remove the restrictor plate and it wouldn't of even been a contest.
I love seeing guys enjoy our products, really makes my day, thanks again!
