Wonder what kind of money went into those mods? It's making some serious HP now.

Hats off to the guys and one badazz vette. But I'd also take a ZR1 right out the box (for the stinking warranty for as long as it last).

Not even a comparison. Do you need all of that to dominate a ZR-1? H/C alone should be able to take out a ZR-1.....and maybe a cam only with the right set up.

ZR1 hp is the easy part. I'm way over that now. All of the other goodies is what runs the price up.
