Maybe from a dig. But roll racing. Nah. Lol stronger bottom end too. ZL1 with intake, headers, pulley swap and tune. Are making 650+ WHEEL hp 725+ with e85. Can safely handle 800-850whp before major upgrades are needed. The GTR comes with well GTR tax and only making high 500’s with FBO + e85. So I can make more power , safer. For less $ . Sounds like a win win. & well... win. Lol and lastly ZL1 has manual option... another key selling point for me.

I’ll make sure to get some runs in with my 3 GTR buddies and shoot some videos over to you ;)

but.....the gen 5 ZL1 is still just an atrocity.

also, comparing it to a GTR is pointless they're 2 different leagues and it needs all those parts you listed just to take on/down a stock GTR.

while reading your posts i'm strongly questioning your car knowledge.

a GTR with FBO and E85 will put down 650whp+ and be capped through the tune to not bend rods and slip/blow the tranny.

Trust me.Don't do it.To make the Ferrari run there is a slot in car where you feed $100 bills.A least $2,000 dollars at a time.

Was watching a video where they go through all of the scheduled maintenance for 10 years. If you stick to the schedule. It will cost you twice of what the car is worth. Things like replace the fuel cell bladder every 5 years at a cost of $20,000. :eek:

I wiped stank on a couple ZL1s at Wannagofast and I left on traction control and couldn't use high boost. I expected more from them. Not saying a properly tuned , headers ,cam an e85 ZL1 can't be a beast , but on that day........nah.
