Yes it's stout. It would hold way more power than this. Prob with those cars is the stiff suspension doesn't transfer weight very good. Livernois 707RWHP ZL1 went 9.8/142 on slicks with no work done to chassis or rear just skinnys, and slicks.

My favorite thing they do in the development of this car is the 24 hour track test. It is definitely built to handle the abuse. Good dyno numbers btw. Should be a fun car to drive on a daily.

Yea I'm amazed at how efficient these little blowers are. Makes 14~15 psi thru the cats and shitty exh, and dropped about 1.5 psi when I uncapped exh at headers. I ported the **** out of the blower . No plans for meth owner actually wants me to back it down there is no traction under 80~90 mph with tc off. I think this car could go close to 800 HP on E85 with a 102mm TB bunch of meth pre blower. If this car was mine It would be running deep 9's for sure. I think the ported blower, and simi mild lobe profile combined with the high seat psi and lower open psi on valve springs contributes to the power. The valvetrain on this car is dead quiet.

Vid does no justice. You wouldn't believe how ungodly loud this thing was open header.

Badass numbers no doubt, but I just can't stomach the weight and the dash of these things, hopefully in the next gen GM will right some of their wrongs.

Thanks guys I put a lot of work into this. Very 1st one I have ever worked on.
