Default Cunningham Motorsports C7 performance results

I have been meaning to post the results of this c7 for a while now, but simply been busy. Here are the Dyno results, Shift Sector stand half mile event results and our 1/4 mile results. This car is a full on street car and see's daily use in traffic, there has been no sacrifice in street drivabilty . This setup is easily replicated and we have two c7's in the shop right now getting near identical setups, one is an automatic the other a manual.
Car:
2014 C7 z51 a6
mods:
Cms Custom spec cam (vvt retain, DOD deleted)
ARH Long tube headers.
Procharger p1sc supercharger kit with 3.4" supercharger pulley
Alky Control methanol injection, with relocated IAT sensor.
CMS custom tuning.
Results:
1/4 mile: 10.19 at 140.3 MPH in 2000DA
1/2 mile: 175.78 mph
Dyno Results: 723 Rwhp, 642 Rwtq at a peak of 10.9 psi of boost on our Mustang Dyno

Dyno Vid:

1/4 mile track video in car (still need to work on the 1/2 shift):

Transmission is 100% stock including the converter . The cam is 22x-23x on a 116+x I can give complete info when the cam is purchased. Custom cms cam's are $399. We use cammotion to grind our custom grind camshafts , all lt1 cam's will receive a 30% larger fuel pump lobe

Isn't it a matter of time before a drive train component fails with this much torque? I am assuming most drive train components are engineered for lower torque.

Oh. I was confused because I heard the transmission shift at least 3 times which would mean the transmission was in 4th going before the end of the 1/4.

Also what led me to believe it was a manual transmission is that in your original post you mentioned that you had to work on "your 1 to 2 shift".

Why would you shift an automatic, when it shifts for itself, faster than using the paddle shifters?

Thanks.

When I said working on the 1/2 shift, I mean the tuning , it hits the limiter on the 1/2 shift. It was shifting automatically by itself. The car is going 140 mph in the 1/4, of course it's in 4th gear at the end of the 1/4 mile

whoops totally my error I should have looked more closely and observe the 140 miles per hour then I wouldn't have made such a careless statement and wasted your time thank you very much

That's going to be close to a 200mph car at the Texas Mile

We don't know how hard the car is going to pull in 5th gear but I think it'll definitely hit 200... As one of our other customers went 174 at this same half mile event and has gone 204 mph at the Mojave standing mile here in California .

Love seeing these Cammed / ProCharged LT1 cars popping up.

Can't wait to see what you all end up with on this car. !

Very impressive! I know the new converters in the A6/A8s are better than the 4L65's but I'm sure even a small converter would have that car in the 9s easily. While my stall was being rebuilt in my 4l65 auto conversion Z. My times went from 9.3-10.0's and slowed the mph down considerably.

Any plans for a stall? I've been debating on putting a procharger on my '14... So tempting. good job on the build.!
