Do you know the full specs on it?
edit- after looking around i found the below info and some specs. also hes changing cam which was a 236 630 113 and going for 7's. Im sorta surprised hes using the fast intake, and how well it and the cam have done..

Thanks for the kind words guys... this was my 2nd event with this setup. We made 6 full passes this weekend and they went like this...

1st pass was off the trailer with the addition of a 2 step and AMS1000 boost controller. We wanted to just get a ratio of manifold pressure to C02 pressure. We set the C02 to 14psi, left soft and ran an 8.75@166

2nd pass we bumped up the boost to 21psi and I left on 4psi with a 1.5 second ramp speed. Pass netted an 8.17@173.
3rd pass no changed 8.17@173
4th pass I was slow on the 2-3 shift and netted an 8.24@168
5th pass I pulled my best 60' to date a 1.30 and ran an 8.15@173
6th full pass was in the finals of the LSX Drag Radial class and I was once again slow on the 2-3 shift and ran an 8.25@169

All in all I call the weekend a success and once we put a real cam in the car we are going to turn up the boost and go for 7's.

They had a beautiful sheet metal intake on it, but switched back to the FAST, because it made a little more up top, and the same down low. It surprised me too.

really.. see thats what i expected at this caliber type car, but i guess not. Just never saw the fast taking that type of boost, but i guess its possible with some glue involved im sure.

This is what he posted about it on a local site. You guys are kind of right on the IRS record, it is a Viper that has the overall record, but this is the C6 corvette record. The car was parked 3 cars down from my truck at a car show, and it is perfect. If you saw it in a parking lot, you would think it was stock.


So here is what is going in now.

Brand spanking new LSX block with Callies Magnum crank (The dragon slayer wasn't rated hight enough) Billit I beam rods, and a fresh set of Diamond custom pistons. We settled on a 9.2:1 427 and have converted to a race ready dry sump system!

This year we will be ditching the twins and in place will be one big GT55 ball bearing 91MM Turbo. Fueled by 220lb injectors through the fast LSX-R intake. We decided it was time to stop playing around and get some real 60' so we are ditching the stock rear spindles and put in new custom spindles that will allow a 15" wheel and yes, you guessed it, some big old meatty SLICKS!

The 4L80 held up well last year, but with the new turbo (and potentially even bigger turbo later in the season) we thought we needed something a bit more stout, so we contacted our friends over at RPM and they are putting together the first ever Turbo 400 Race conversion for a C6Z06. This tranny will be complete with a pro tree trans break and a monster stall so we can launch in boost.

Some of you may already know that the stock computer has limited us to 21lbs of boost for some time now... so we decided to ditch it! (or at least piggy back in) a AEM stand alone system so we can push just a bit more boost through that big A$$ single.
