I have a 2014 ZL1 with 5000 miles on it . I am thinking about these upgrade . My goal is to add 100 to 120 horse to the wheels but make it reliable for long term . I plan on keeping the car to give to my kids any advice would be appreciated.. I have a good high performance shop to do the work but I am concerned about the long term .

1.. smaller pulley
2.. injectors
3.. thermostat
4.. spark plugs
5.. heat exchanger
6.. cat delete pips
7.. tune

Talk to Ted from Jannatty racing I picked up his 125RWHP kit installed everything and its bad ass he'll be able to work with you for what your looking to do

injectors, plugs, heat exchanger all yes

add onto your list a CAI

i wouldnt touch the supercharger pulley just yet an overdrive pulley will be much less work (if you were do it yourself)7

as for the cat deletes best bet is to run a nice set of LT headers with HF cats / cut outs (plus a bad ass LS sound)

The Roto-Fab CAI is a great bolt on mod that delivers an average of 25Hp without a tune on a stock ZL1.

kinpin - that looks like a good start. A Roto-Fab intake would be a first to add on that list and also one of the easier ones to install. Ported VMAX TB as well. If you're gonna delete the cats, you might as well look into headers. In our ZL-700 Package we include all of those items and we add Alky Control Methanol Injection for extra safety. We see 100RWHP gains with this combination and proper tuning. Please let me know if you have any questions and feel free to call, PM or email us at anytime.

Kind regards,
