Was there to see the runs yesterday. That car is moving for sure. Pretty cool to be the world's fastest ZR1.

Awesome results. Now the only questions remaining are:

1) What octane fuel was used?
2) What is this package going to cost?

What fuel was used? +140rwhp over a stage 1 (12-13psi) seems a lot for an extra 3-4psi.

Besides the extra boost, the gains come from the increased capacity intercooler heat exchanger and the larger supercharger inlet. In talking to the LPE guys they said there were big gains from the new inlet (I was quoted a number but won't repeat it since I am not sure if it is official). This is a cast piece that will replace to snout and throttle body on the front of the supercharger. I believe they will be releasing this part for sale soon.

I am pretty sure the ZR1 inlet piece is different from the aftermarket part. It is offset for the application. See below

Two questions:

(1) What power will the car make on 91 octane pump gas?
(2) When can I buy this package [regardless of your answer to question 1

] ??

Congrats!!!!

Hmmm... 740rwhp with no exhaust cam work. Though it is still impressive and assuming that inlet isn't as the answer to the ls9, it may seem that this run was done on race fuel.. maybe a mix.

Hmmm... I believe it is at least a mix. Why would anyone chance detonation at those power levels, race gas is cheap insurance.
