FYI: We've recently changed our production process on building these, so we were able to decrease the price by $600 for you guys!

It only made 76Xrwhp on the Z06 above, because the client does not have the supporting fuel mods.

We've proven it's capable of over 1000rwhp on an LT4 in a V3. Depending on the compression ratio and fuel choice someone might be able to squeeze 1100rwhp.

That is a very broad question.

From a stock C7 Z06 you could make that 76x rwhp from anywhere $15k-$20k depending on parts and fueling selection.

From stock to 1000rwhp you can expect to spend around $30,000 give or take.

what if u only want to stay in the 700 760 hp range do you still have to upgrade fuel mods? Will stock fuel inj an pump still support that kinda power an be ok.. how was the tq around 3-4000 rpm .

I was just on your site making a wish list (which included this blower)
I have 14.5k in hard parts (Whipple, SPI, Granatelli HE tank, LMR CC) - I’ll swag to say 1.5k in miscellaneous (shipping, fluids and “uh ohs” ).
That’s $16k (I budgeted $15k - she’ll understand the extra 1g ... I’ll blame/blend it in/with tuning cost )
What’s the other 14k I’m missing, is it labor ( I do ALL my own wrenching) ?

Big injectors, and an LPE pump. With a mild pulley combo the torque was over exceeded 675 ft lbs (over 700 Dynojet #'s) to the tires in between 3000-4000rpm.

Assuming you are starting from stock and "want it all". In addition to what you listed above, here is what else I recommend doing to exceed that 1000rwhp benchmark.
Complete cam/headstud/valvetrain kit
longtubes and x-pipe
billet valve covers with -10 or -12 PCV/breather kit to vent the excess crankcase pressure
upgraded HX
Halltech CAI
NW 103mm TB
add on injector ports to Whipple
Triple disc clutch if M7 car
Install labor and tune

I do all my own work too. Don't get me wrong I would slap a Whipple and SPI kit on it in a weekend then have it tuned for kill and push the limits of the stock parts I recommend upgrading. LOL but I would not recommend someone else do it and promise them it was safe.

So,.....how much more power/torque did the 2.9 Whipple make over the stock supercharger, without any other mods at all? Just switching over superchargers?

100 rwhp.. In reality putting a Whipple 2.9 on a stock C7/C7Z with no other other supporting mods isn't really something one does. That would be like putting an Procharger F1R on a stock C7/C7Z with no support. It's more of a high horsepower blower.
