Buying a 2015 with 8k miles
Only mod is a procharger and still puts down 660hp. Stock intake/exhaust...everything

Does this sound reasonable?
Also how are the c7s handling boosted power?

BrunoTheMellow

Is he talking estimated crank hp or wheel hp? If crank, yes perfectly normal. If wheel, only if he has a smaller pulley or bigger head unit but that's going into unsafe power levels with no meth.

thats awesome...prochargers are bad *** the most powerful blower for a c7

BrunoTheMellow

Perfectly normal. Prochargers are seeing 550-600 rwhp depending on the dyno and the tuner. If he took care of it, I don't see a problem with buying it. They are estimating 13% drivetrain loss which is fairly standard.

stock trans can hold that power? i know my 07 with 520+ with no issues

As far as I know both ECS and A&A C7 cars have been in the 9's. On the C7 fast list, I don't see any Procharger cars there YET ! Maybe I am wrong though. Anyone know ?

The Car keeps up pretty good on pump gas at 600rwhp and with Meth you can push any of the kits up to about 700rwhp without much concern. If it were me, I'd put a catch can on the system and have some fun with it.

I had a 2014 with an A&A kit I did and put over 14k miles on it, then traded it in on a 2016 and now have that kit on this car. I tuned mine to 600rwhp and am leaving it there for now.

We have kits available for anywhere from 550rwhp - 1000rwhp+ and as long as the correct supporting mods are done, I wouldn't worry about any of them.

I can tell you this, everyone loves the way my car sounds with the blower and long tubes and it drives great as well.

true but that's a big YET....wait till the guys w the c7z procharged cars get them squared away be stellar numbers for sure

they all make about the same power to be honest the ones in the 9s are most likely the best tuners..Its all in the TUNE

thegame

True, everything has plus and minuses. We are lucky to have so many good choices for our cars

I've been supercharged for around 15k miles so far, all on stock drive parts. I was at 1150rwhp for about a year no issues. Now that we are upping the hp to close to 1400 rwhp (boost only) ive upgraded to DSS level5 axles and also a Mantic triple clutch. All transmission parts are still stock.

#12) Ryne and his little P-1SC with a cam... lol. 10.19
#7) Stangkilr 10.03 slipping and spinning his manual down the track.

It seems 99% of our customers are not track guys. So pretty rare to see a C7 at the track. Lots of 1/2 mile guys, and "street" raced cars it seems.

Throughout the lifecycle of building your car, did you do many hard pulls from a dig with your R888's on there?

thegame

I'm not putting you guys down. Usually the Vendors handle themselves like professionals and it's the fanboys creating issues and being morons. I have always used ECS for almost a decade now and they have always been great to me. No need to think of changing teams. ECS/Procharger/A&A all seem to have happy clientele and that's all that really matters in the end.

0ProChargerTech

I don't know who is creating issues, or being a moron.

You just said you didn't see any on the list, and I pointed out (2)
Nothing wrong with that.

Here is another guy, with a ProCharger, not on "the list"
However 10.16@135 on 20" drag radials is a solid number.
(would put him at #10, on "the list" if he cared to be)

so guys, weve agreed on a price of $48,500....this seems like a steal right? Can anyone talk me out of it?

Silverboost

Sounds like a smoking deal to me.

BrunoTheMellow

do it.

JPutney

I may have details about the car in question. Is the last 8 of the VIN:
G5116236?
