Default What do you think about this package?

Hi, was wondering what everybody's input was on this package.
http://www.corvettec5.com/store/?pag...&product_id=82

I thought it was almost impossible to get 400 at the wheels from just bolt ons?

Any input would be greatly appreciated!

Frank

Sorry, but there is no way an exhaust and headers is going to add 100 RWHP. Most stock LS1's dyno around 300 RWHP and to make a claim like that is rediculous. I could see it possibly with a cam swap and better flowing heads, but not without.

400 RWHP is probably close with this package if you get the air/fuel ratios optomized.

:bs I don't believe it! Maybe I should give them a call and ask why my car doesn't produce 400rwhp. I have all the same stuff on it and more!

Yep,
I believe it. Look at it this way, they start with an 02 Z06 which is already 365 to the wheels say, then they have many mods such as the pulley, intake, exhaust, etc...iI think they may get lucky and get 400 once. Then boom, there is their claim!
