Idling Videos and Pics of Jimmy's (BLOWN ECS Z06) new forged motor
I uploaded an idling video and some pics that Powerhouse Performance gave to Jimmy.

I also took a pics and shot a couple videos at our monthly Chicago Crew lunch today. We had fairly decent weather for Chicago in January today and Monday's 65 degree temps and rain melted all the snow and washed the salt away. I would have driven my Z06, but it's in the shop getting the Maggie installed right now.
That thing looks and sounds even meaner in person. You're going to have some fun with that beast in the spring Jimmy.

So far so good, I think she will shine well and make big power when we get my Z dyno tuned in the near future!
Still breaking in the brand new motor on street tune, so not WOT yet, but cam seems very stout down low (with great street manners) and really starts to wake up over 3000 rpm.
I know its going to be a beast with 14lbs of boost on her way up to redline in the near future!

Jimmy, when you pulled away today, sounded like a stock car!

I do prefer a little more chop in a perfect world, but that does not make for the best centri. supercharger cam!

Should be at 725+rwhp/625+rwtq on a conservative tune (with 14 lbs of boost), but won't know exactly of course until we hit the dyno within the next month. Going to put a few hundred breakin miles on the brand new longblock and change the oil one more time b/f hitting the dyno!
