Modding a Stock ZR1
What are some good mods to do to a Stock ZR1 that will be the best bang for the buck?
I have the Kooks headers and doing research on a Cam. I'm going to get with D3 about their heat exchanger set up.
I have about 5k that I'm wanting to spend on upgrades.

as with any blown car, do cooling mods first so the power you have remains more consistent.

I was also looking at the 710 kit and thinking the cooling mod would be needed for consistency.

710 kit comes with a 160 thermostat .Changing the intercooler bricks is helps running cooler all the time.

Don't waste your money on the D3 kit. Message ZbaddestZ about a proper cooling system for much cheaper.

I bought the D3 kit and It looks like a huge upgrade from the stock cooling system for the supercharger.
