Default My 2000 RWHP C6 Z06....

Well,

So far we have tested up to about 1800RWHP, but we now have a new power plant in the car that we expect to be able to put down 2000 RWHP! We have been doing some testing with the new motor.

We now have the new ERL powerplant tuned and working well with the new intake, and Throttle body. We have been testing with the 30" tall drag radials as well.

Our first goal with the new setup is to be able to build about 7-8psi on the line so that we can launch with enough power to be able to stay consistantly in the 1.2x range.

Our second goal is to spin the motor way higher than we ever spun the old motor. The new setup is a Solid Roller setup and we expect to be able to spin the motor as high as 9000rpms!

Durring testing we were easily able to build 6 pounds of boost on multiple attempts and were also able to hold the shifts as high as 8500rmps (we didn't try to go higher)

We plan on doing some more testing next week and I will share updates as I have them.

Now for some pics









Also you can see some of our initial testing of the new motor in this video...

Amazing, I think you need a rocketship, not a Vette.

Yeah, but what kind of fuel mileage does it get. . . . j/k

Holy crap. What a tremendous build. Not only a fine engineering accomplishment, but it looks like a work of art as well.

I would say you just crossed the line between hobby and addiction with this car now! WOW! Can't wait to see the track numbers she'll be laying down next...

Amazing car! The turbos on this car are so big, they look like a seperate engine in front of the engine. Looking forward to more 1320 vids from this car!

After looking at the pictures, something tells me it's not stock.








A true work of art. Good luck with the new setup. And keep the rubber side down.

That's funny, while we were out testing last Thursday someone actually asked about economy.

I am definately addicted... We expect numbers to be sub 7.50 and right around the 200MPH mark in the 1/4

There is actually only 1 Single 106mm turbo... the thing on the drivers side is an Air to Water intercooler.
