Default 2014 Z51 build started today!!

Just dropped off my 2014 Z51 M7 for an A&A TI Trim blower 3.6 upper, Alky Control Methanol system, Kooks long tube headers and X pipe catless. Pretty excited to see what kind of numbers it pulls!! Rumor is that it might be on the dyno on Friday of this week!

Anyone have a clue what you think it will make???

Good luck with it. I love the Ti Trim I have on my C6Z. Get some good tires, you'll need them.

It made 750 on a Mustang Dyno. Forged pistons (10:1), cam, meth, headers, and 3.4 pulley.

i would agree around 600-650 depending on how much boost you have them run and how much it can run.

I'd say 625 - 650 as well, based on where you are and the tune. Like me, your soon going to be shopping for more grip. Congrats and enjoy

What do you recommend for tire? I have a set of 17's for the rear for track days but am looking for something sticky for the stock 20's for street driving.

I have a friend with a set off of a C6 Z that he thinks should fit it fine. We have not tried them yet though.

Intersting. I have the exact same combo except with Texas Speed headers and made 662whp on a Superflow.

Would you happened to know how much timing the tune has?

I don't think the 17's are going to fit. 18's seem to be the smaller diameter to clear the brakes.

If you want to stay with the 20" wheel consider the Toyo R888.

I am not sure on the timing, I can ask him today. I have 2" headers and 3" x pipe no cats. I do know we were making 11psi.

I just installed some Bridgestone RE-71r tires a couple days ago. I've only driven highway back to the house, but initial impressions are great. I'll do a little "traction testing" tomorrow (I only drive it on Fridays) and post a review in the tech section as not much is known about these other than the track guys really like them.

I'm at 750rwhp and ran the R888 on 20's prior to dropping to the 18's and drag radials. The R888 hooked up surprisingly well. I could do hard 3 gear pulls on the highway and hook and they performed flawlessly in the half mile. Trying to get them to hook from a dig in 1st was a different story, but you just have to be sensible. It just depends on how the tire will be used.

The R888s are good tires, but not nearly as fun as drag radials. I will probably use them for future 1/2 mile events. That's why I maintain two sets of rears. One with MPSS and one with MTs. MPSS at 750whp are scary.
