Default How much power?

Hey all I was just curious as to how much power you guys are getting from your vette's, Like with mods and stuff. Has anyone got 500 yet? (not including linginfelter turbos for the 500+, but tell about them to!)
I know this post sounds a little lame but I was just thinking and wanted to know. :D
So post away!!! :cheers: :yesnod: :smash: :jester

500 at the wheels requires real serious mods, some sort of forced air system, a big block or nitrous on a heads/cam engine. If you mean at the flywheel the Cartek Stage II X package on the LS6 gets you there.

I have a little over 550rwhp before the computer tune. I should produce 600 maybe 620rwhp after the computer tuning.

I just noticed---our cars look GOOD together. Can't wait to race ya! Watch out I just might be able to pull 620rwhp at 6200rpm. I could never have a 700rwhp car. That would be dangerous. 580rwhp is safer. --Jeff Nation :)

Looks like one of you would have to pay for a boat ride across the Pacific for that to happen ... you in TX, him in HI. :(

Rich oxygen levels in HI. I will save you the trip and ship my car over. I always wanted some real estate on Lanai. I'm joking. Yuk yuk. But I would like to own some land on one of the islands. What can I get for 400K?--Jeff Nation

I have been looking in Mexico also. For 225K I can get 4 acres total land and 1 acre of beachfront and a custom home. I just don't feel safe there.
