Wassup y’all. Just seeing if this is about right for what mods I have on my 2015 zl1. I have the following:
1000cc fic injectors
5” RPM cold air intake (this thing sucks?)
2.50” upper pulley
Catless long tube headers
PLM heat exchanger

I made 530hp/540tq. This is about stock numbers right? I’m running on 91 octane. Am I missing something or does this look about right? The tuner said the 5” isn’t good and it’s really hard to tune.

You an auto or manual ? As far as the rpm5” cai . My tuner told me unless you have a 416 or bigger was not needed . Your cylinder can only fit so much air and fuel . I’m 800+ whp on E with a regular rotofab w/ 103mm tb

Auto, I’m looking at the rotofab too. Gonna go E too. Any suggestions that could get me some more power? Thing feels stock still lol sounds mean tho

My car only made 480HP stock on a Mustang dyno. The type of dyno matters, they're not all the same.

The guys are right about the 5" intake not being needed. When you get around 1000HP and have a bigger TB, then it'll help. No real reason to have all the injector if you're not running E or have a cam, but since they're in you might as well leave them. If you want more power, add a cam with springs and trunnion upgrades for safety and possibly heads.

a stock automatic zl1 only makes around 460 whp. so you are far from that. If you really want to make more power you'll need a cam and a lower pulley. As far as the RPM intake i have it also and lost some power coming from a jlt 5" intake but different day and summer time tune. but i does make adding meth injectors much easier with the built in bungs.

I did this modification to let it breathe even more. I ordered a new fog light bezel so i have the original to replace it if needed.

Move out of Cala where you get a great tune on 93..

E85 works really well on these cars, but you going to need an AUX pump or bigger fuel pump.

Navajo415 · 08-05-2023, 10:17 PM

I have the DSX E85 flex kit and plan on getting the DSX aux kit. And going to go rotofab cold air intake and sell my 5” RPM intake. I live in Cali so camming it kinda scares me haha. Might yolo it though. Thanks for the input guys. So it usually is 460 wheel for autos stock? I never did a base run so I thought it was around 500. Guess I gained about 70 wheel then
