I don't actually see any TT packages from Lingenfelter other than the C6 TT Commemorative package, which has TT along with a whole new 427 basically. And it costs 87k lol. What does it cost just to stick the TT on?

Not to worry! We do offer all of the turbo packages similar to the C5. Pricing on the stage one is estimated to be about $27,000.00. We have already produced the high Hp versions, so we do have a handle on the tuning. Any of the twin turbo packages you see with the C5 is easily acheivable with the C6.

Actually didn't it say $87K on top of the base z51?, about $132?
Awesome but, out of my price range.
I like that 366 at 500HP.
I only wish it came legal for CA.
While I'm sure the new ZO6 will be a very nice car, it's still going to be a N/A 427CI engine, which behaves differently than a turbo engine does.
Most people don't realize the amount of fabrication, and engineering that goes into a properly designed turbo system, but if you know how expensive quality work is, then it's easy to see why the price of a good turbo package is so high.
There are several companies out there that sell turbo kits for these cars for a considerable amount less money, and some people have been able to install them, and produce good numbers, but we all know that there is an even larger number of members who have bought these kits, and attempted to install them, only to end up with a very expensive car that can't be driven. When we build you a turbo car, it idles, drives, sounds and acts like a stock Corvette everywhere except WOT, where it is a completely different car!!, but the nice thing is that when you're done being aggressive, it goes right back to acting like a stock Corvette.
We are currently working on pricing our TT packages on different levels similar to how we offered the C5 TT packages, but Jeff's $27K estimate is pretty fair.
Feel free to let us know if we can answer any specific questions,

Thats the truth! Just talked with Tim today on the 05' DSOM project. When you guys take on a special ops project, you dont F*** around.
Looks like things are going in the right direction
As a 2nd owner of LPE cars..........the work, outcome and quality are THE BEST out there........you get what you pay for............
See us in a couple of months..........when the beast is unleased
Hey if the stage 1 is going to cost you 27 large, why the heck would you do that when you you could buy a Z06??????????????????????
Some of the prices these tuners charge is MIND BLOWING!!!!
I already have a C6 and it's not cost effective to sell it and buy the new Z06. When I can spend $27k for a 600hp/600#s torque LPE twin turbo. I don't expect the new Z06 to sell at window sticker, most people that can afford $65k-$70 will pay $75k-$80k. IMO.
