Lazerlemonta update

Results from my C7 Z06
I miss my Camaro family and thought I’d share what I’ve been up to.
Did some upgrades over the summer. With a rotofab big gulp, 103tb/adapter and flex fuel we went 9.88@136. Yesterday we went 9.37@146.8 using pump e and had all 1.3 60’. Working on the trans tuning still. Once that’s dialed in we should be low 9s. I still have the stock exhaust(I know why don’t you have headers question is coming) I simply wanted to prove it wasn’t necessary to achieve my goal. Here’s the full list of mods Fore triple pumps, port injection with 1000cc injectors, too high psi controller, inter chiller with aux pump and expansion tank, kong x ported blower, 2.3/9.4 pulleys, rotofab big gulp, 103tb, flex fuel and mighty mouse catch can
Pray Performance Forced Induction Interchillers Kong Performance

Damn dude, glad to see you are still doing well and building monsters! Loved how you were always trying to find power in non conventional ways and were willing to experiment and do things a bit different than the mainstream.

Geez, I kind of sounded like AI for a moment.

Guy sells his NA M6 5th gen, goes NA M6 C6 Corvette, and then goes boosted/automatic C7 Corvette and you guys welcome him back!?!?!? TRAITOR!



I'm kidding. I love to see the progression, and that thing is flying. It's so impressive what "minimal" mods are capable of with that platform. Looks incredible to see it wheels up ripping the 60' just stomping the gas. You more than paid your dues chasing those stick shift 60 foots, must be nice to just go out, wack the throttle, and crush it! I'd be lying if I said I don't consider it at times!
