I agree with you on the pricing, $7K being the upper end given the kit design. But even at $7K it might still be a stretch when you compare to an ESC or A&A kit @ $1500 less that will make the same power. My opinion is 600-700rwhp for a daily driver / stock C7 is plenty.

O.k. I will be patient for the kit. Hopefully they will announce something. I have spoken to John before. Really nice intakes BTW!

Hellion really seems to have dropped the ball on the C7 kit. Still no updates or information available.

They seem to be focusing on the Camaro at this time.

After multiple calls to them, I finally gave up and ordered an ECS kit.

I was proud to have John install this kit on my C7 and love it! We Dynoed the car stock and it made 400HP. After the Turbo install we made 620HP on 5lbs. I have put over 300 miles on the car with no issues. I did have to upgrade the tires due to it going sideways

at 85mph. I will need to update the fuel system with LT4 Injectors and High pressure pump. John has a Stage II kit that includes the fuel system parts and a new intake that will be going on the car soon. Stay tuned!!!

You have to take into account he is also in ABQ, so that he is probably seeing a 20% correction factor. Fuel doesn't care about that either. So take that into mind, that ~620 is only ~500rwhp where he was running out of fuel.

There is no information about the C7 kit on their website, and when calling they say it will be available “soon”. So how did you end up with a kit? What does the kit cost?

Hellion is in Albuquerque, he is in Albuquerque. I'm going to take a guess he drove over there.
