700HP??

I have a 2015 ZL1. It is stock, so 580HP at the crank. Just wondering what it would take to get my car up to 700 HP. Any and all help or suggestions are appreciated. And if you have a preferred brand over another. Thanks!

Dont forget to reinforce the brick and get cooling mods too.

And?

Still going to have to reinforce the brick above stock boost pressure and it's going to create more heat with increased boost.

I would still recommend helping the brick and cooling the blower temps.

I haven't seen any empirical evidence of collapsing the brick at 700 hp at the crank. Another 50-100 hp...absolutely. Any blower can use more cooling than stock, particularly in hot climates. OP is in Il. No real need yet except on the hottest of days, imho.

To get around 700hp at the crank you will need 4k-5k.
