The two different sets of hp/tq data are boltons vs. H&C
I put over 15,000 miles on the current setup. She still runs like the day I picked her up. I recently had a test driver(Ricky Kwan) from R's tuning drive my car - and was told the power is ZR1 class.
Working with R's Tuning on suspension and a tire setup now to get some more grip

The shocks are going to be a spec that Ricky helped develop for the Corvette specifically. Shock body and valving are both different from off the shelf parts I believe.
I really don't care for current steering feel, and it's really not easy getting this much power to drive out of second gear corners.
And when at speed - 3rd gear plus, the current setup(H&R's) gets quite dicey as well.
Hopefully this new setup will prove to me that the C6 is a capable chassis.

Ricky at R's Tuning is a good guy and he did the original installation of Ohlins on my Z06. The Ohlins were designed and prepared by PSI, and my car was the test guinea pig for R's turning. Ricky had it dialed in from the get go and I haven't had the need to adjust anything.
Are you keeping the stock sway bars? Or, what will you be using?
Why did you start another thread asking for a good shop when you're singing the praises of RPM here??
I'm pretty sure I can field this one. Short story, trouble maker. He may be in the same position that many have found themselves in who go to RPM. In that case, he needs to promote the crap out of RPM, even though he's being treated like crap.
On a side note, take that car to another dyno, and you won't be so pleased with your numbers, moreover, ZR1s average about 20 RWHP and 70 RWT more then your already inflated numbers.
^your post was which shop should I go with. Sounds like you're trying to start some kind of ****, especially when you just posted a thread about how awesome your car is. Confusing to say the least... Lol.
I just wanted to see what other H&C builds are out there from shops in this area.
I will have my CMS heads and cam LS2 build results. With Rynes spec'd Cam only, the car made 463 RWHP. I just completed a housing move and I will have the heads put on quickly. We can compare apples to apples from there.. Jay
Yeah My Z made 585 rwhp when I bought it and it was done at RPM. Only made 531rwhp on another Dyno and picked up another 10 over his crappy tune. Do you really believe your car is making 527 rwhp stock cubes? If so your way off sorry to say... O and get your heads checked. I just barely missed catastrophy because the RPM heads on my car were junk! All chinesse parts and multiple people have been dropping valves in there heads around here. Guildes were ****ed and setup up incorrectly. I'm extremely lucky I got my heads checked when I did. And this was one of Charlies friends cars so I can only imagine how the average customer gets taken care of over there. I've also talked to insiders of RPM and was told they took short cuts and used crap parts to save a buck on numerous occations.
I've pulled on cars making 630+ on there dyno and my car makes 567 on Mustang Dyno. You should go to Famoso this next sunday. A lot of cars going out there and you can try and back up that power you make with a good MPH...

PS- are you the dude from GNC in MV?
Yep, the other thread is locked, that didn't take long...
