Not the tune, it was fine. Also was not a DSX sensor. When I checked the content with HP tuners after it happened, my reading was 25% E content. I tested the jug I poured from and it showed roughly 80-82% with the glass test tube. Something happened, which explains why the cylinder went so lean/hot.

No worries, we are going to take the opportunity to change the combination slightly (different cam, less cylinder pressure, etc.) just so it doesn't happen again. Most guys are not road racing these combinations so my build is subjected to some of the worst conditions most will face.

Have a '19 M7 Z06 Vert and am considering the Magnuson 2300 as an upgrade. What additional measures must be taken to swap out the stock 1700 for this unit? My car is completely stock. Thanks......

What, if any, other modifications have you done? What is your goal for hp? From all the research I have found, you can bolt this on with nothing else done, and pick up about 75rwhp, and end up around 640-645rwhp. On the far end of the spectrum you can build everything around it to get to around 900rwhp.

We went out for a rally last week with 2 huracans 1 performante 1000hp mid 9 second hellcat multiple modded vipers GTR TT R8 etc etc.
my buddy's 2300 Long Tube white A8 Z06 left everyone in the dust.. . Out of 22 cars it was the fastest by a large margin. Car runs 9.7 @140 on pump gas.
the 2300 runs cooler and delivers better power at every point in the range. It's a game changer for this already beast of a car. Chevy's biggest goof was that little 1700 spinning to high death. even more so than inadequate track cooling because the 2300 makes this car as fast if not faster (because it can be tuned) than the new ZR1...
That carbon 65 has same mods but its an m7. Hampers it's ability at the shifts to keep up with the A8. Same guy built both. These cars are animals with the 2300.. it's what i will do should i keep mine past the warranty. I've driven it numerous times and like i said it is better all around. So much better.

You can do DIY really nice kit and it is plug and play and takes minimal skills. A buddy to help lift off the old unit and to set the new unit on the engine. Then the belt on the 2300 comes very tight takes 2 and I have strong arms. 40 pages of a very nice install book very easy takes 10- 12 hours taking your time. I took a couple days spliting the job.
I would DIY for sure. Ready to start my second one.

I'm trying to decide. I want to add the ATI super damper with the changeable pullies to my builds. I was thinking the 5 percent but maybe the 9 percent
don't want make it hard to tune and wish to stay on pump 92. So I was thinking I better go 5 percent

You are fine the tune is the ticket. His car his is the 800 rwhp I believe and things are under considerable "testing" you might say. I don't think you have anything to worry about
You buy the 2300 ad it comes in a box.

Where do you live reach out to ask for tuners proven to be good. Don't take just anyone till they are known to be good to with C7 Z06's.
I think you can start it after the 2300 install and drive it very EASY to the tuner. I did!

like 3zo6zr1 said, I just finished mine. 11 hours total and that was spending about 45 min looking for a retainer plate that dropped into engine bay. very straight forward job!! and very easy install, minus a couple rear supercharger bolts lol {the guys that have done them are laughing right now}. mine started right up and I drove it too my tuner {nicky performance of Chicago} about 7 miles away. no limp mode,no codes thrown. my mods were 2300,103tb, halltech, already did norcal cat delete no headers., just started tuning tonight on 93 pump gas no meth. so far 690rwhp + 740tq going to do a little more tuning on Monday and I will update my thread.

Would like to know if there a a calculate boost. With the oem unit, 15% pulley, AFE and 1-7/8 cat less exhaust, I am at 14-15lbs. The 2300 is about to get installed, was thinking of going with a 10% and the standard 80mm hoping not to exceed 15

Sooo, I may have missed it, But If ya do the 2300, good intake(HalTechk or AFE,or?), add long tube headers, what is a conservative reliable RWHP of this combo. Can you add a pulley(with tune of course) how much more rwhp. Trying NOT to go meth, but want conservative/reliable HP. Want it to be good to stretch its legs(top end run) now & then.
