Default ZR1 ultimatel track build getting closer to finished

My C6 ZR1 modifications list - goal is full time track racer/TT car that can go around COTA at 2:10 or so




Speed bleeders on all calipers

Pagid RSC1 pads all around

SS brake lines

Pfadt camber kit

Pfadt HD sway bars front and rear

LG Rear tow hook

PFADT Front tow hook

GS1R 18” wheels with R7’s mounted

Front bump steer kit

Rear bump steer kit

ARP wheel studs with gorilla lug nuts

Tunnel heat shield

2”x3” kooks headers

Kooks cat-less x-pipe

Sparco Egro seats

6 point harnesses

Shark bar harnesses bar (remove when roll-bar arrives)

RPM roll-bar 6 point with rear hoop

Solo 2 DL w/ smartycam GP

QA1 vansteel DA coilovers 800/750

Pfadt spherical bushings

Moog ball joints x8

Billet pedal covers

SS brake lines

ARP wheel studs with gorilla nuts

DSX Flex fuel sensor - car to run on E85

K&N cold air intake

iD1050 injectors

Prospeed Reinforced bricks

ZERO deg thermostat (removed internals)

Ron Davis radiator (big AF)

Edelbrock heat exchanger (modified with 1” inlet/outlet)

Prospeed billet 3/4” inlets

Kong divider

10 gal rear mount ice/water tank

AFCO C7 exchanger (modified 1” inlet/outlet) - rear mounted

All 1” lines on exchanger system except just before bricks

Reprogrammed EMP pump 24 amp 4500 rpm

Meth/water injection w/ 7 gal rear tank (100% water to be injected)

Auto-blip rev matching

Hinson short throw shifter

DEI TI wrapping on headers and X-pipe

Castrol SRF brake fluid

Elite engineering Dual catch can system

Replaced polycarbonate vent window with function louvered vent

Dual vent inserts on hood also

Custom made front splitter 5” out from stock carbon fiber splitter

Custom front brake cooling system

APR GT-1000 wing bumper mounted

DC power 270 amp alternator for ZR1




Will play with blower pulley sizes upon successful AIT temp reduction mods from above - maybe go 15-17 PSI vs stock 10 PSI. Initial AIT’s with stock pulleys should not get above 110-120F after full 20 minute session (at least that’s plan). With have essentially 4x the heat exchanger area as stock with 2X flow and 10x system volume.




First pass engine/cooling mods should put 625-650 HP to ground - need closer to 800 rwHp to go 2:10 lap at COTA....




All sorts of videos of everything done so far in car in my channel - remaining upgrades and more track time videos coming.....

Do you have any pics of your wrapped headers & X-pipe. I keep thinking that I want to wrap mine to help with under hood temps but I can't get clear advice on whether its a good idea or not. What made you want to wrap yours?

Wrap them or have them coated or both. Only wrapped mine due to some time constraints and putting other measures in to reduce temperatures in engine/footbed areas.

everything on exhaust is detailed here
