Meet GheyRay: Lower, Wider, Lighter!

[Kracka]

Lew and I have been going back and forth with logs and tunes since last week and now have on my car what he thinks should be the final version. I'll take one last log this afternoon to verify! :D

I've been very impressed with him, he responds to emails/logs with a revised tune practically instantly. It's nice feeling the engine want to pull to redline now instead of dying off.

Now the real fun begins :cool:

Real fun, you mean FI?

[evotuner]

Thats pretty fucking glorious

Actually, just thinking about this, when the z06 comes out and those guys start upgrading SC's and what not you could probably get the Z06 blower for a decent price.

Are the shortblocks the same on the z06 and the stingray? internals wise i mean.

Maybe different cam?

They don't do any clean up work in the collectors?

Love that coating. I gotta get an FP manifold and get that coating on it, they look like piss otherwise. Does it have any heat retention properties?

Different motors, LT1 for Stingray and LT4 for Z06. I doubt many people will change out the blower, they had to make a special one to fit under the hood.

The coating does have heat retention properties and does a good job of helping to control underhood temps. On my IX & X I coated everything worthwhile and it make a noticeable difference (exhaust manifold, turbine housing, & o2 housing/downpipe), plus retained stock heatshields wherever possible.

2 of the 4 runners had work done in the collector area, but the other two were left alone in the name of runner balancing. Overall flow is up 13.8% and runner imbalance is reduced from 7% to below 1%.

Hanson got it right; I don't forsee many Z06 guys swapping out the blower. Pulley, sure, but doubtful on the actual unit. The blocks started from the same design, but the Z06's LT4 is significantly beefed up to handle 650/650 and still get a 100k mile warranty, plus a bigger fuel system of course. Upgrading a direct-injection fuel sytem is a big hurdle, but supposedly a lot of the Z06 components will swap over to the LT1 for the Stingray guys wanting to make big power. That said, the stock Stingray DI fuel system seems to have no problem supporting 600-650whp.

Now I need to source and intake manifold core to get into MAP's hands...

Manifolds look clean, great choice and great price point.
