Default The BIGGEST DYNO NUMBERS......

Hey guys,

I had a question about whom is/has made the biggest power/torque RWHP/RWTQ per FI "STREET/LIGHT TRACK application" verifiable with an actual dyno graph that someone has seen or one that has been posted.

What have you seen for the "biggest" RWHP/RWTQ on A C5/C6 Corvette setup for both street/track use (something that is actually driven on pump gas mainly, perhaps with some octane assistance via methanol, Torco, etc.)???

Sample FI Categories:

A. Single Turbo
B. Twin Turbo
C. Quad Turbo
D.Roots Style Blower
E. Screw-Type Blower
F.Centrifugal Blower
G.Twin Centrifugal Blower
H. Compounding
I. What ever else???

What are the "BIG" numbers on the C5/C6 platform RWHP/RWTQ that people have seen...and on what brand of dyno????

I am curious, because I am a power "pig" (can't get enough of it...it seems), BUT more because I am curious to see what people have done
on this platform.

So what have you seen????

It can be stock or modified.

You're probalby going to get quite a wide range of responses as to what is streatable.

I guess I'll post up the first link :

Automatic on pump gas. This same setup in a stick would dyno quite a bit higher. This car is extremely streatable, but bad for your health .

So, what do you like the powerband on?

I know, that 700 RWHP on a stock bottom end is psycho, but cool!!!

I have the D1 procharger set up w/ Kooks 1 7/8" headers, 2.5" x-pipe with cats HPE S cam and a meth inj. kit and I drive the car ALL the time. Pump gas and nothing else. My car goes on road trips and gets 30-32 mpg and does this.

That's pretty common now a days JJ, our 346 Paxton pkg makes roughly 750rwhp with stock heads, and over 800 with Trick flows through stock mufflers. You would never know it made that kind of power even if you went for a ride in it, if the owner didn't lean into it.

I think at this point all the major tuners have proven that they can make more power than the drive train can handle and still be very streetable with great gas mileage.

In my opinion, if you can't make 700 rwhp with stock shortblock and stock heads, you have a problem.

Nice dyno numbers. You need to update your sig for the new cam.
Are you still running 12 PSI?

Was that on a stock bottom end?
How many PSI?
Specs on the S cam?
Was it tuned for meth or meth just for safety?
Why did you go 2.5" X pipe and why cats?

Great numbers, But is that safe with a stock bottom end, I assume its a stock bottom end.. And does anyone know what is a safe HP level for a stock C6 w/6m...before reliability suffers..Thanks

That's a forged "bottom end" on mine.

I've got several stock bottom end D1SC cars putting down over 700 rwhp. With a conservative tune up, like they have, they seem to be holding together! But the rods might say see ya later before too long! If you want max dependability, obviously it's best to build a forged shortblock.. But if you can't afford it up front, it's not going to hurt you to run the blower on the stock motor... You can always be "real" safe and run a larger pulley on the blower to decrease boost/power until you have a forged shortblock for it.
