Default Will a Procharger C6 = Z06 performance

I owned a 07 Z06 and sold it and bought a 09 C6 M6 Z51. I did it because I wanted the open feel of the top off option. But I missed the ***** out performance of the Z06. I added Kooks header and Cats with a Vararam intake with tune (step one). Other then the sound of the car I could not tell much of a difference. I will be getting my car back on Monday..they just added brake upgrades and a procharger with tune. Vararam was removed. I was wondering what numbers to expect as far as 0-60 1/4 mile etc...will it be comparable to the Z06. I was roughly 0-60 3.7 and 1/4 11.75 at 123. With my C6 Z51 I saw 4.1 and 12.5 respectfully. My RWHP of the Z06 was 475 after tune and KN intake. The C6 was 385 after tune and headers. (mustang dyno)

Any Thoughts

My guess.

Your blown C6 will be around 570 rwhp @ 8/9 psi and while you should not expect a big improvement on the 0-60 time compared to your Z time (3.6 sec), your 1/4 will be closer to the low 11s, if you hook up.

It will be more to the 6psi then 8-9. I wanted to keep my internals stock. Anything above 6psi they recommend better internals to prevent engine failure. I should be around 500-520rwhp.

yea pretty much you can make more than enough power to outrun a z06 safely. the only issue youll hit prob is traction. a paxton could be another alternative and maybe even cheaper
