That will be crazy!! My 15 made 698whp and 757wtq tuned by jeremy formato. I had AFe CAI, fasterprom thermal plates, 1 7/8 LT catless xpipe, alkycontrol twins 15/15 , cordes upper 2.31 mamo ported TB NGK TR7IXplugs on 91. You are gonna have more boost and also stage III cam. Dunno if you are getiing head ported, frankly mind as well do it while you're there! All told, North of 800WhP and torque will be close to 9**WTQ!!!
I saw you're in PA, this is where i went to tune my car! My buddy lives in Harrisburg area, so we went to a place in Gettysburg, where Jeremy drop once in while for tune LS/LT car!!

Thanks man, I am not porting the heads, I was told for the money it's not cost effective at all by many different performance shops. I am estimating 750whp if I had to guess. Did you ever race your xarnin the 1/4 with your mods?
Weapon x will be doing the tuning. They tuned our cts-v and we love it so I will have them do this car also. I tried getting with formato 4 different times to schedule the cts-v for a tune in Gettysburg and got the cold shoulder or no response at all from him so that's why I went to weapon x. I originally had plans to ship the c7z to fasterproms and have him do the cam install rest ofothe mods and ftune b he lost that job now also. I can't knock his work though, see many people very happy with his tuning!

If you are from Canada, look up champion motors. They are in Toronto, Kevin margitta does the tuning there and they do amazing work!

I build my cars always by myself!! I do not have time anymore!! Just want to hit push start n go!! BTW LT n catless Xpipe made my C7Z way too loud for my taste. If i would do it again, it would be a catted xpipe!!

I like obnoxious, turn everyone's heads, **** the neighbors off loud haha. Our cts-v is long tubes, catless, cutouts. I used to do my own work but I don't have the time with work anymore. Luckily with this job taking all my time it allows me to afford a shop to do the work lol

Gonna give this a bump. I have almost all of my parts and I schedule to drop the car off at weapon x on March 28th.
I have changed the build slightly as well. In addition to what is listed above I added nx direct port nitrous and nx direct port meth. I will be spraying 100 shot and also installing a dedicated fuel system for the nitrous which will supply c16. The car is also going E85 now.
I can't wait to get this car built and back in my hands!

Sounds like a healthy list of mods, looking forward to seeing your results.
weaponX recently did my build as well. Ben and the gang took great care of me. I would highly recommend them, incredibly knowledgeable group of guys
Curious, is your car M7 or A8?

So I got the car back about a month ago now. I am very very happy with everything! Below is a copy and pasted review of my experience with blake top speed Cincy also.
Final numbers on a mustang Dyno are:
All motor 729whp/733wtq
50 shot 788whp/805wtq
150 shot 867whp/930wtq!
Ever since I bought my vette a year ago I wanted to modify it and make it my own along with gaining some extra power. I was not sure where to start being new to this platform, so I reached out to a couple shops that specialize in this platform. (four to be exact) two of the shops I never heard back from and or seemed to have no interest in wanting the build do to being to busy or who knows what. One of the shops was helpful but was just too far away for my liking.
The last shop was weapon x Motorsports. When I contacted weapon x I was put in contact with Blake Leonard, he took quite a bit of time out of his day to go over many options I had. Drafted me three different quotes for three different builds to help me decide on the direction I wanted to go.
At this same time (last fall) we were also looking to have the cts-v retuned as we were not happy with the current tune it had from another shop. I mentioned this to Blake and he was more than willing to look at the tune if I emailed it to him. Once emailed he informed me many things were wrong and had no doubt the car was running terrible. He assured me he could tune the car and make it drive with 99% stock manners. This was the test, we took the cts-v to him and he tuned the car. We got the car back and it was incredible how well the car drove along with the best track times to date (.8sec quicker than the previous tuners tune took the car!)
After this experience I was sold that Blake would get the job for my Vette. We spoke many more times, added and subtracted from the build etc. He never gave me a cold shoulder like I was wasting his time etc. We figured out the exact build that was going to happen and I started sourcing parts.
During this time Blake decided to open his own shop called Top Speed Cincy. Blake informed me he was no longer with wxm and was open with me about it all. I wanted Blake doing the build so Top Speed Cincy was the shop to get the build.
Time came to drop off the car for the build. Drove it to Cincy and met with Blake, spent over an hour finalizing build plans etc. We agreed on five weeks for the completion of the build and the build started.
Blake informed me almost daily if not daily with updates of what was being done, any issues that came about, and plenty of pictures of the progress being made. If I had any concerns he answered and resolved them as quick as possible.
Five week deadline was near however the build was taking longer than expected with all of the wiring etc that I specifically asked to be done perfectly with attention to detail to the point it looked as factory as possible. He also ran into issues with a meth solenoid not working and a incorrect nitrous bottle valve that delayed us further. The bad news came, Blake informed me the car would not be ready for our scheduled pickup date. I explained to him that with my work schedule I can't make it out again to get the car before Chevrolet Nationals in Carlisle, PA. Which the car is registered for. At that point Blake stepped up, went above and beyond and said he would trailer the car home for me as soon as it was completed! If there is any way to make bad news much easier to swallow this man did it perfectly.
The car took an extra three weeks past deadline in total. I was informed of every step that was made daily. Pictures, videos of idle, Dyno, purge, everything I ever asked for I received.
Finally! Delivery day is here! I got to see it in person for the first time, hear it for the first time in person, and drive it for the first time since the build was completed. I told Blake I want a very very choppy idle but want the car to have excellent street manners while he was tuning so this was the test. He starts it up on the trailer and idle is perfect, backs off the trailer and up goes the hood. The pictures I been seeing looked wonderful but seeing the car in person put a whole new level of awesome on this car! You can't tell what wires are factory and what were added. You can't tell catch can hoses from factory hoses. Everything is secured with factory looking clamps etc, zip ties are not in these guys vocabulary which is wonderful!
Time for a test drive... I get in the car and it's just sitting there chopping away, car shaking etc. Perfect idle! Put it in gear, idle smooths out like it's a bone stock car. Start our drive, no hesitation, no bucking, no rpm dips, no stutters, burps, hiccups.... Drives like a stock car! Okay, well how about under power..... Roll into it, meth comes in smooth, no massive meth hit to make the car go rich and hiccup etc. The more throttle you gave the harder it pulled. Success! A rowdy idle, drives like stock, has way more power!
so, this past Friday night the blower acquired a bearing squeal within 500 miles since this build was completed. I got in touch with Blake immediately and he told me we would get a game plan together Monday. Monday rolls around and I let Blake know that this car is pre registered for Chevy nationals and we are do to leave in 5 days. Blake tells me he has a replacement ported blower for me, he will be driving to my house on Wednesday (6hrs away) and swapping the blower in my garage for me! Well today was that Wednesday, Blake was here, swapped the blower and drive back to Cincy. My car is 100% and ready to go!
I have dealt with a handful of other shops over the years and have also talked to a handful of other shops. I have never got treated as well as what Blake did, we have never had the cts-v run this good until Blake tuned that car, and I never dreamed the results of my Vette could ever be this wonderful but once again he was there to impress! Then the icing on the cake was how he dealt with the blower issue, just incredible!
So, to my car guys, I know it might be a bit of a trip to Cincy for some of you but I can assure you it's well worth the time to have Blake at Top Speed Cincy assist you with any of your performance needs/goals!

I have never got treated as well as what Blake did, we have never had the cts-v run this good until Blake tuned that car, and I never dreamed the results of my Vette could ever be this wonderful but once again he was there to impress! Then the icing on the cake was how he dealt with the blower issue, just incredible!
So, to my car guys, I know it might be a bit of a trip to Cincy for some of you but I can assure you it's well worth the time to have Blake at Top Speed Cincy assist you with any of your performance needs/goals!
