Why not add a healthy 2.9 liter whipple ot tvs or kb blower.
Just wondering, love you guys you make a great product.
Yeah - I would've liked to see the 2300, but ZR1 has to keep something to itself. Besides - perhaps it would've put the output beyond the safety factor of LSA. I believe I read that the 1900 rotors are good to about 700 horsepower, even though we're seeing a lot more. That was in an article that featured the 1900 and 2300 Maggies back in about '08. It will be interesting to see what kind of heat that thing is putting out and how much more efficient ZL1's intercooler system is. Apparently - beyond the new lid, there is a new IC brick that lowers back pressure and the water pump comes from the Volt, but is bumped in wattage from 50 to 80 watts to increase flow. I'm very interested in seeing at what power level we start seeing the IC start to lose control of heat...
