Any Procharger 1/4 mile times?

If you want to make real power, and not run a turbo, or a big block, you run a centrifugal, period. Roots are for one thing...being thrown in the trash, and for street rods, that are more concerned with a Muscle Car Look, than real numbers.

I 'think' your problem is going to be the torque management that the M7 cars are subjected to in the C7Z's calibration.
I haven't done any due diligence because I don't have an M7, but can the tuners adjust the tables or turn off that feature? Otherwise, you may be fighting an uphill battle.

Side question for those ditching the factory blower. Is there a market in the LT1 arena for those wanting FI? Or what are people doing with their stock blowers, I'd like to sell the stock one to recoup some of the money spent if all possible.

So you can't just "bolt it on" the heads.
Sorry guys.

Obviously the C7 Stingray gains probably 200 whp probably,
What is the z06 doing?

Most lt1 kits come from Procharger around 8psi and gain around 170rwhp on 93 octane...
To make it worth it on an lt4 probably needs to be around 12-13psi (3psi more than factory)

We were only able to make one pass with this car. You are comparing everything that has multiple track passes on it to a new combination with one pass on the car.
Honestly it doesn't matter how many passes we make or how fast it goes, certain members on this forum will discount it any way possible because they don't agree with the pricing or the modifications performed.
NorcalSS wanted to see a Procharger car go down the track, now that we did he compares it to everything else as if it wasn't a feat to take a 14 month old platform and run 9.3@150 and then drive the car back home 4 hours away.
At the next track outing we will go 8.9@155, drive the car to and from the track without changing tires or the use of race fuel or a trailer.

Have shops been able to "crack the code" on the high HP centri swaps? I know the torque management was a problem with the A8's once you hit a certain level of power. A high 900whp procharger setup on A8 with no shifting issues I'd send my money in now.

On the stingray it maxes around 46x and on the zo6 56x or somethin close to that...
This correlates to line pressure, shift time, etc...
That and getting the the DD table and peak tq table right..

To be honest to fix the A8 issue on high powered builds is to just scale the tq axis in the trans settings

It looked like it shifted fine on the 9.30 pass they posted. The A8's are a little bit of a pain to deal with now but HP tuners will eventually have control of most of the transmission parameters.

For those I adjust trans shift speed and rpm as well... I run full tq management, but instead of pulling negative timing on the shift I skew it to give a hint of spark on the shift

I have a customer I performed a remote tune on that makes upper 600rwhp on a bolt on z with e85 that has literally 400+ passes and runs low 10s at 4000da... Plan to spray it soon with a direct port...

Also the tuning of the centri curve vs the factory blower. While there are many procharged Z's we've only seen the one A8 post a time slip. While many of shops have failed to manage to get the cars to shift properly.

I'm curious to the 900+ rwhp builds and the life of the A8 trans with a fair number of passes per year.
