[QUOTE="Silverstrike, post: 16167046, member: 4781"] Oh I agree there might be a few 2017's involved, I was just telling what Tadge Juechter, the head engineer of Corvette said down in the 2017 April Corvette bash. One 2016 Z06 owner even said to him that the 2009-13 ZR-1 made 638 HP and you used a 2300 TVS s/c for that. And so the C7 Z06 makes about 15 more HP and you put a 1700 TVS on it, seems to me you went backwards. Really I just found out how Callaway does their 2300 TVS s/c that they put on their Camaro's and Vettes. It sits upside down on the engine and so it blows the air upwards against the rotor housing roof where there is the first intercooler, it then goes off to the sides and then down into the V of the LT-1/4 wherre there is an IC on either side for the intake ports so that the air charge has 3 IC's to go through and Callaway also exposed the SC to the outside air as a 4th way to cool the S/C and the air charge. But Callaway can have his S/C exposed while GM needs to have it covered up due to some states rules and laws saying any new vehicles being sold has to have their engines enclosed in a fire resistant space, hence why the new ZR-1 has such a large cowling on it. Callaway has a low volume mfg exemption and so can sell his cars without worrying about this. [/QUOTE]
