My buddies true 1000rwhp daily driven Z06

[JPblkSS]

I just thought id share the video of my friends daily driven 1000rwhp z06..this car is violant and he does drive it everyday on the street..when its not snowing..by far the most violant street car i have ever been in..it is all on pump gas also. i know we all like fast stuff so i figured id share this video.

Cool video! I got to drive a C5 version vette and it was no Z06 and it was awesome. Can't imagine the power that one has.

To anyone that has never driven a Corvette, you owe it to yourself to try it at least once. I did and now I want one! They are an awesome piece of American Engineering and raw power and speed.

The one I drove had tons of traction, stop on the gas and expect the tires to spin, nope, they grab and your off!! Fun car to drive for sure!!

[drockw]

Id like to see a dyno sheet.

[JPblkSS]

ill see if he has one he can post up..i know he went and dynoed the car again today on more boost so ill let you know what it makes today also

[AdvanTimberLou]

I can see it possibly getting up there. Our race car puts out serious horsepower and with no supercharger.

[Blownsvt]

i want to see proof of over 1000 whp. don't boubt the car can do it but i highly doubt it on pump gas. several of my friends built 427 vettes. one being procharged and on being TT. niether got close to 1000 on pump 92.

[skitty4gzus]

beast car. im a lil jealous for sure. my buddy had a 530+whp civic and i rode in it a couple times. lets just say it was ridiculously quick. smoked a street bike and did a couple 3rd gear pulls and it was just nasty fast. i couldn't even imagine 1000whp or anything close to that.

[RICE ETR]

Beautiful car!

1,000rwhp can be done on pump....if you allow methanol injection. That's how I have been able to make 640rwhp with a turbo on a basically stock (cam and springs) '98ls1 and my buddy actually did make 1,000rwhp...well ok 995rwhp on pump with meth. He ended up wrecking that car at the track and built another...much badd'er ride. It is a complete street car...and this pass was on 17" DR's. He runs on pump around town but puts the good stuff in it at the track. This car is 3825#'s btw.

And yea, 1,000rwhp on the street is absolutely rediculous...as I have ridden in it...my measely 640 is almost stupid.

[skitty4gzus]

yea, nice for sure. I know honda's and what not dont get much respect, but they are pretty cheap to build up and build up fast. My street car goal i guess you say is a '93 RX7 with an LS7 and twin STS turbo's. You know fully built forged motor and heads, the whole nine and say a 200 shot of nitrous just in case you need it. That and my sleeper smart car with a 1300 hayabusa motor, turbo'ed and nos!!!!

[RICE ETR]

If honda's and the like were rwd or awd...I would be all over it....even with the 4 banger in there. Either you make more power or you take out weight....most of those imports are more than a 1,000#'s less than my ride....that's a full second in ET's at least and a lot easier on drivetrain parts.
I have driven high powered fwds and just can not stand spinning and steering with the same set of tires.

[standsitter]

I work at a Chevy dealer and see and drive vettes daily in the summer. Have worked on several with Ligenfelter 427 engines around 600-700hp. If that car made a legitimate 1000hp that would be amazing. The amount of money that would cost is uncomprehendable to the average working man. A Z06 vette cost $75 grand minimum before any mods. By the way, the 600hp vettes are way more than the tires can handle.

Lou, think about this, 1000hp and it has to idle and go slow. Do our race cars idle?? Like to go slow??. How much we spending on engines?? what fuel we running?? Tony Stewart has 800hp and is that streetable, no, and his motors cost $60,000 thats right around $60,000 for a cup motor. $60,000 for 800hp.

[RICE ETR]

I don't know about the vette originally posted but 1,000rwhp is attainable and can also be completely streetable...how it's done is how my buddy is doing it....turbo. Boost makes up for a ton of displacement/compression/etc.
Both my friends car and mine drive and ride almost like a stocker (cam gives it away). The average person riding in my/his car would not be able to tell what's in it if driven normally.

And while I am on my soap box, here is an old vid of my car dynoing. Mind you this was on a dynojet, which is not really turbo friendly...my car makes full boost on the street around 2800rpm....but on the dyno it didn't come in full til 4400ish rpms....so my tq readings are low because of this.

This is wild stuff, turbos, injection, strokers, this game has come a long way from putting on some ported heads, cam kit, manifold and carb, then tuning it with wrenches and screwdrivers, not laptops.

Nothing against you hi-tech guys but I make power the old fashoined way, high compression, fast lobe lift cams, low lobe seperation, optimized fuel curves, and step headers, and a ton of cam advance. If you raced against my car you WILL NOT beat me to the flagstand.

[JPblkSS]

yeah this car does make 1000 hp at the wheels..however when he redynoed the car there was a problem with the belt slipping and the car wasnt able to produce the boost it should be making and it made 912 rwhp..this car is absolutly capable of making 1000 hp..as it was already said it depends on how it is built on how streetable it is...the guy that built this car knows what hes doing..the last motor that he had in it was a 449ci motor that made over 600 hp at the wheels on all motor and that was VERY friendly to drive..boost does wonders on the street haha..but when you try to get insane amounts of hp out of motors with no boost, nitrous or meth thats when you start running into the street friendly problems..i know people have their own opinions and respect them and i dont care if its a honda or a camaro..if its fast i like it!

[MUZZYxSHOOTER]

Dammer! I bet that thing freaken rips!, it sure looks like it does.

I bet it will roast the freaken tires off the rims.


Awesome car.

[skitty4gzus]

there are plenty of import car's running rear whl drive. And, plenty of them make BIG power. Obviously on boost though. Look at the Supra. 3.0L motors on boost making over a 1000hp to the wheels. It doesnt take $60,000 grand either to get to 1000hp reliably either. If you want 1000hp in a vette, you dont go to the dealer and drop $75k on a Z06. You get like an '02 with a blown motor or high miles. You build a motor yourself or a buddy whatever and drop it in the donor vette. Spend some time on dragtimes.com and check out cars on there and see what kind of numbers they run, some even list what they did to the motor and what not to get where they are.

[Bllade]

My Monte (i just posted pics) is detuned and putting down well over 500hp and 600ft lbs to the rear wheels and this car is very close to unstreetable with 275s on the rear .If you are running 1000hp on the street you better have a feather for a foot. My next mod will be a frame notch and 325's on the rear, should make a little more streetable that way.

[ColdplayX&Y]

1000hp on the street, do u even use the gas pedal or just varying degrees of letting off the brake? hell even the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 dosen't use all 1001bhp all the time.

[RICE ETR]

640rw on 315 DR's is mostly usable....from 2nd or 3rd gear roll it just rolls the tires a bit but then rock and rolls.
1,000rw on the same tires is quite dangerous on the same tires (cold) until higher speeds but that's what makes it fun! Now on ET streets it is usable once they get some heat in them on good pavement.

[Bnbfishin]

The only gripe I have is ditch that stupid ass music in the video!! I want to hear that beast not the beast that's coming from some donkeys vocal cords. I can't even count how many youtube vids I've watched with hopped up cars that drown out the sound I want to hear with one type of music or another

[Big Country]

WOW! They must build cars a LOT stouter today than they did when I was a young guy spending all my money for the dragstrip.

Back then, 800 FLYWHEEL ponies would have twisted a corvette(or any other car without a chassis) to the point you could not drive it.

I understand that turbos are a little more "friendly" HP, but how in the world could you use even half of those ponies?

Car sure sounded sweet though.....and like already mentioned, dump that maniacle stuff that kids call music so we can hear the car.

The difference there is quality! I dont know you, or your car setup so please dont take it wrong for me assuming, but do you even have 60K in your whole car? Most that i know dont! Tony Stewarts car is meant to maintain peak hp at extremely high rpm's for 4-500 miles NONSTOP There is absolutely no way, yours, or mine, or anyone i know whose cars engine would last like that (the bottom end anyway)

The vette uses electronic control to make it more streetable where your carb setup (assuming again) is tuned to the max all of the time. The cam/heads, and everything in most drag cars are absolutely peaked, which makes them unstreetable for the most part. Im not saying that electronic control is better, but it can be used in a little bit broader of a spectrum if done correctly.

BTW, I know of a guy here in my town who works at the local Ford dealership who has a 1000ish hp car. It may not be 1000, but he runs high 8's in the 1/4 so i would say 900-1000. Its an older challenger with a bb, and a huge direct port shot. He drives it on the street His advantage to driving on the street tho is that he only has the extremely, extremely high hp when he sprays. Im pretty sure its a dual stage 250shot.

I am an old harcore street racer has been...been away from it since I found archery but hangin' with the old car buddies a little again .Wheww it ain't the same out there on the streets. I was at an all Corvette cruise here in my hometown last summer and they had a dyno contest.....Holy smokes there were 4 latemodel Vettes, high dollar, supercharged all street driven that made at or over 1000rwhp. I was shocked and every one of were street driven no "trailers parked around the corner" cause I looked.

[introverted]

1000whp pretty easy nowadays if you've got cash to drop

my old man has been building old school alky small blocks for 30 years and he's even impressed with what some of these kids can do with some HUGE turbos and a laptop

open up a hot rod once in a while, they had some KID with a LS in a 65 nova making well over 1000hp on pump gas

to the guy talkin about tony stewart

it's the beauty of fuel injection my man

[jmvaughn06]

Not to be a but or anything, but you can talk all the HP numbers that you want, wether it be 1000 or 250 but what it all boils down to is what it runs in the quarter or eigth I've seen guys at our local track with some monster turbos kicking out amazing horses but i've seen many of them fall to smoking the tires right off the line and losing to a car with less power. Turbos are great dino number makers and can lay down some pretty inpressive dragstrip numbers if and only if the guy knows how to tune it. So I guess what i'm saying is i'll take a car with less horsepower that can hook on a gravel road to being able to brag about having a ton of power to only see my oponents taillights I'm a chevy man and that vette is bad, but just my two cents on the dino talk.

[introverted]

i have a car that runs 11.50's in the quarter

but for street racing, i want something that goes 200mph, not 11 seconds

I do agree with you if we are talking about the track. On the track a well driven car with considerably less hp can rape a rick punks Supra all day long

But... when we are talking street here, most with those high hp #'s DONT race from a dig. They are smarter than that If i had 1000 hp I wouldnt even race someone on the street starting at under 40mph. Those big turbo cars do well in the 100+mph range...

BTW, in road and tracks top speed test between the worlds fastest super cars, the hennessy viper won by hitting 200mph in like 20secs or so. Anyways, they said they actually had to use boost control until 130 mph or so b/c it was still spinning when the boost maxed out. thats just ridiculous IMHO... I couldnt imagine breaking loose going that fast. they need to tub it out and see what it can really do

[ursonvs]

impressive...yes. but there comes a time when in the end it turns into nothing but a dyno queen. there are several of toyota supras that have over 1000whp but are truely non streetable...hell, even non trackable just cause they produce so much torque they can't get any traction.

[JPblkSS]

This car is very very streetable..it's all in the tune...this car is easier to drive than most of the cam only cars..very little surging at low speeds at all

that sounds just like the hennessy viper! PRobably 400hp is just wasted up until 150mph b/c they have no way to plant it to the ground.

Sweet. I like it. I am sure it pushes you into your seat unbelievable so.
