Default Z06 H/P increase question.

I would like to get to around 750 crank horse power. What is the simplest way? I only want to do bolt ons. I did a search with no success. Thanks

Halltech CAI, and Innovators West 9% overdrive pulley on a stock tune took me to 650 SAE rwhp and 690 rwtq. Add a Tony Mamo ported throttle body, main cat delete pipes, and a tune and I should be right where you are aiming.

Sounds like you are already at 750 crank. Was told Akrapovic exhaust and Halltech gets 70+-hp. Assuming with a tune.
