Default Weapon-X needs to be on the Velocity Channel!

Last week I brought my '16 Z51 in for the LT4 conversion. The results are amazing! In just 2.5 days they transformed my car into Z06 that could go through a car wash! I had a '15 Z06 but sold it because of this inconvenience! Call me crazy! The team of professionals are beyond anything I have experienced before in my 60+ car history!

Base line dyno: 461Rwhp with halltech CAI, katech ported throttle body and careless Birla Xpipe






End result: Z06 Dyno power!

Stage 2; I still cannot believe it's the same car; I drive it daily and it Is amazing; I have logged 2500 miles since installation and it just gets better and better. Weapon-X is the best!
Much faster than my '15 Z06; my friend drove it and could not believe the instant power. He has a Z06 and was giddy driving it!

Nice helluva build you have there I plan on doing this exact thing rather than a procharger. What other mods are done to it?

I'm very happy to hear that you're still loving the car and the comparison to your Z06! You've put more miles on your car in the last week than most 75% of the forum members put on theirs in the last year.

At first when Michael told me he traded in his Z06 for a Stingray and now wanted to put a Z06 supercharger on the Stingray I couldn't wrap my head around it. I finally asked why, then he told me not to laugh and told me about the car wash. I'm one for automatic carwash's too, not because I don't have want to wash my cars but because I feel like I'm always pinched on time. Having Z06 power in the narrow body Stingray so you can drive it across the country and not have to manually wash it makes it so practical. Especially for as much driving as Michael does.

52k and counting! 4K since install! Simply amazing! Oh and by the way, a lot faster then stock Z06. I was at VIR on Friday for charity laps and "walked" every Z06 I came up against! Left them all scratching their heads!!
