I’d rather wait to get the bigger blower sorted and NOT have to spend time and money on exhausts or headers. Just push more PSI through the whole system!
This is a second for CPR in Tempe. Joe has done and amazing job explaining his work and plans along the way. NicD who works the ECU tuning is a Corvette owner as well. Check out their YouTube channel for some insight to their shop. He won't steer you wrong with anything. Last week needed some quick help finding a part he installed for my meth kit. I was half the country away and he was available and immediately helped. He has a team of mechanics that love what they do. In house fabrication of many things for the GM cars not just Corvettes. Plus when he is done he makes you part of his club, LOL. Little "branding" on your car. Street gang I guess.
I guess this would be a 3rd for CPR in Tempe lol. Joe and crew reworked my car after some shabby work was performed by a couple of performance shops. We stayed with the factory 1.7 for now, but who wouldn’t be happy with a 9.49 1/4 mile at 144.40 MPH on the little blower under non-ideal track conditions. You can’t go wrong with CPR and a NicD tune. It’s not about dyno numbers, it’s about track performance, that’s what you get with CPR!
I just purchased a C7 Z06 with the 2300 already installed. I actually pick it up today and will be running a half mile event this weekend to see how it performs and do some data logging. The motor is a built 416 with headers, Lingenfelter GT35 Cam, 102mm throttle body, expansion tank,and Halltech intake.. No low side fuel system or methanol is installed. I I will find out today which pulley combination is installed. Car made 830ish horsepower and 850ish torque on MS109. I plan to add the fuel support for E85 in the near future. Car gained about 30hp and 70 tq on C16 (857hp/928tq) which is how I will be running it this weekend. This should be a fun setup
The edge just needs the little corner off if anything. Looking in person it looks even less and the 2300 tapers in already.
Much larger interior than the 1.7. My M7 pulls amazingly hard in even 6th gear harder than stock did in 4th. Stupid fast!
Is the Z06 plus the 2300 2 inch headers halltech 95 tb and tune. gotta be over 700 rwhp it flies! Now I have the A8 the same way!
New corner scales w/Bluetooth you put each pad in front of each wheel and drive on. Coming real soon!
I will finally stop guessing the actual weight of my cars.

How did you do? Should be very fast with the list of mods.
Install takes about 8hours, and can be done on your own.
I was quoted about 8hrs for the header install by several shops. I'm sure this is a book time that is used. You would need a lift to be able to get the headers off.
The ARH headers are easy with just jack stands they slide right in no jacking of the engine. I was surprised too they fit so easy!
How long did it take for you to do the header swap?
My dealer wanted 1100.00 so I thought even if I take 2 days I paying myself 550 per day.
First time maybe 8 hours but if have done them before it helps since no instructions I could find. But I knew to leave 1 primary loose till last
after you get everything in place with the x-pipe. I think more like 4-5 hours. The removal of the front cats was easy with a swivel then 1 corner you reach through the wheel well to get the pipe off.
But they slip every bit as easy or easier than the C6. The many tunnel bolts are cake with the new light impacts. Another person to hold them up for a minute would help I was totally myself so I gently hung them
on the spark plugs.

Transmission went out. 170 mph is all that it had. Wasn’t pulling up top and then car wouldn’t move at all. Transmission is getting replaced this week.

That car had ran 175 before on less power.
Sorry to hear about that sounds like the tranny slowed you down hope you will back on the road soon!
For the guys with the 2300, how did u bleeding the IC to get as little air as possible? The Gspeed bleeder kit no longer works due to different filling point.

I do not have the stock intercooler or plastic tank set up anymore, my car has the full GSpeed cooling set up with remote intercoolers and their reservoir.
