UPDATED This is a 2003 Chevrolet Corvette z06 torch red 50th anniversary, three owner car, with right around ~92k miles. The first owner had the car, until sometime early 2016. The second owner then sold it me in October, 2016 with a full extended bumper to bumper warranty. This car then had the engine rebuilt, with several other supporting modifications, as well as a custom rear-mount turbo setup about 2000 miles ago, by an engine builder at Honda Performance Development. The modifications are as followed:
Engine: Ls6 block and rotating assembly -LS7 Camshaft (210°/230° 0.593 in./0.589 in LSA 120°) - Gen 4 front cover - Gen 4 camshaft position sensor - Three bolt LS2 cam gear (ARP hardware) - C5R Timing Chain - Ls7 Ignition Coils/ New spark plugs and wires - New Melling Oil Pump (Stock Spec) - Full TSP Seals and Hardware Rebuild Kit -Clevite Rod Bearings -Clevite Main Bearings -Durabond Coated Cam Bearings
Stock LS6 Head Castings -Comp Trunion Upgrade -Morel Street Series Link Bar Lifters -Trickflow Chromoly Pushrods - Comp Cams Beehive Valve Springs W/ Titanium Retainers
Turbo Components: -Comp 78/79mm .96AR OILESS (Purchased used, with 0 miles on $800 rebuild and new billet compressor wheel) - Treadstone 1300HP TRST9 Intercooler (Core Size, 25" X 9" X 3.5", 3” inlet/outlet, 1950 CFM) -A&A branded Turbosmart Blow Off Valve (Purchased used, then fully rebuilt) -Turbo Smart 50mm Progate Wastegate - Hallman PRO-RX-BK Boost Controller -K&N Filter (4” Inlet, 178mm Height) W/ Prefilter Screen
Fuel Components: -Bosch 60lb injectors -Walbro 450 (see cons)
Drivetrain/ Suspension: -Bilstein Sport C5/C6 Shocks - C6z Sway Bars (Used, then rebushed) -LS7 Clutch -C6z Shifter Assembly
Additional Components: - Entire Car had Fat Mat Installed (From Footwells to Rear of Car) - Rockford Fosgate Prime R1S4-10 R1 10-Inch Subwoofer (Installed flush in rear cubby. Subwoofer wire kit installed completely hidden until carpeting. Pac AOEM-VET1 keeps factory system and interface) -Transmission Tunnel Heat Plate (eliminates common in-cabin heat issue)
The rear mount turbo kit was made with the components above, with these specs:
Exhaust: -Stock manifolds(retain heat much better than long tubes) -3” tubing from manifolds to rear of car, into t4 turbo flange. -2.25” wastegate dump(ran car at 2lbs of boost no problem) ENTIRE exhaust was painted with VHT then DOUBLE layer wrapped. Every connection has a SS Vband.
Cold Side: -4” turbo inlet -2.5” aluminum tubing running to FMIC. -3” FMIC outlet expanding to 4”(3.75”?) coupler into throttle body
The car has NEVER(not once) been tracked or auto-crossed. When tuning(Speed density) it made ONE pull at 10Psi of boost(target boost) which ended up making 670WHP. Immediately after the car was dropped to 3lbs of boost which made ~450Whp as a conservative street tune. The oil was changed about 50 miles after breaking in the new rebuild, then once again, just a few hundred miles ago, with Mobil 1. -The Airbag light is on for the drivers side and I have not investigated.
The Pros:. -The car produces boost pressure under 2300rpm and makes full boost under 3500rpm. - Drives like stock in stop and go traffic and gets great gas mileage (Stock or better). - With insulation, and a good sound system, this car is incredibly quiet and docile while cruising. -Comes with regulator and lines, many stock parts, extra maintenance parts(oil, brakes etc) and some extra z06 specific parts that I received with the car.
I am sure I am missing information and parts so let me know if you have any questions. I have receipts for all parts and services. Last three pictures show the minor flaws in the bodywork. This car is the 50th anniversary with Torch Red paint and a Black Leather interior with 10k in modifications and labor. I am asking: $18,000 OBO TEXT ONLY at 310-nine6two five383
