C6 ZR1 Corvette LS9 Power Upgrade Package, 700+ Horse Power
You may think it would be hard to improve on the very potent ZR1 Corvette with 638 hp, but it is possible. The Corvette engineers did a fantastic job of bringing us an awesome car, but they also gave us something capable of more. The Zip LS9 Stage 1 performance package brings together our exclusive set of Kooks R-Series stepped headers and high flow catalyst backed by a Corsa exhaust system to give the ZR1 some authority out on the road. Along with a supercharger pulley kit, Mamba fresh air scoop, Zip performance shielded wires to keep the heat off and some calibration changes in the PCM, this performance package will turn your ZR1 Corvette into a 700hp beast. You will also notice quicker acceleration thanks to an additional 5lbs of boost and free breathing on the back side. For more information please call a Zip sales representative. This kit is not recommended for the DIY as a press is required to complete installation. If you like turn key, Zip can install your LS9 Corvette performance package.
Zip's Package tweaks for the already formidable ZR1 Corvette includes :
* Zip Corvette Mamba fresh air scoop, Item # PM-623 The Mamba Fresh Air Scoop allows the ZR1 Corvette air intake to achieve its full potential by ramping fresh air from the front of your ZR1 Corvette directly into the opening of the intake. The Mamba Fresh Air Scoop is mounted to your ZR1 Corvettes radiator shroud with 3M double sided tape.
* ZR1 Corvette supercharger pulley upgrade kit, Item # PM-633 The Lingenfelter ZR1 Supercharger Pulley Upgrade Kit is designed to enhance the LS9 Corvette ZR1 supercharged engine. This upgrade kit produces excellent horsepower and torque improvements over the factory 638 horsepower and 604 lbs. ft of torque while maintaining a safe level of boost and supercharger RPM.
* Zip-spec high performance shielded Corvette spark plug wires, Item # PM-533 These Hi-Performance spark plug wires are built to Zips standards, built specifically for Corvettes with headers. We start out using a Delco Mag wire and then heat shield it with some of the best products the aftermarket has to offer. This will be the last set of wires you will ever have to replace from getting burned by a header or just plain wearing out. These C6 Corvette spark plug wires are the perfect compliment to the Kooks Stepped Headers also included in this LS9 power package.
* Custom PCM programming, Item # S-174 To go with all of the upgrades to your LS9 Corvette engine, we will also upgrade your ZR1 Corvettes PCM. With custom PCM programming using HP Tuners scanning and diagnostic tools we can modify just about any setting available within your ZR1 Corvettes computer system.
* Kooks R-Series "stepped" long tube Corvette headers, Item # PM-558 If you really want to step up your Corvettes exhaust system then consider a set of Kooks Custom Headers from Zip Corvette. Kooks Stepped Header design, which is included in this power package melds the particular advantages of specific tube diameters: low end torque from 1 3/4" primaries at the flange, then opening up to 2" tubes for unrestricted top end. Built by Kooks Custom Headers, manufactured from mandrel bent 304 stainless steel with 3/8" flanges and 3" collectors. Stepped headers include O2 sensor bungs, gaskets and sensor extensions.
* Kooks high flow converters, street X-crossover and mid-pipe, Item # PM-564 This mid-section is designed to complete installation of Zip/Kooks R-series stepped? headers on LS9 equipped Corvettes. The mid-pipe bolts directly to the 3" collectors and allows you to utilize the ZR1 exhaust system of your choice; in this case the ZR1 Corsa Sport. The 304 stainless steel center section includes a crossover pipe and hi-flow stainless steel converters for a completely street legal performance exhaust system.
* Corsa Z06 & ZR1 Corvette exhaust - 3" Sport cat-back exhaust system, Item # EX-2077 Also included in the LS9 ZR1 Corvette Power Package is the clean-sheet engineered C6 ZR1 Corvette Corsa Sport Exhaust System. Corsas famous sport system includes a race car like sound at full throttle yet a calm sound great for cruising speeds, military grade 321L stainless steel, and an increase in horsepower and airflow over the stock application. The quad 4" exhaust tips finished with the Corsa logo adds the finishing touches to this near perfect Corvette exhaust.
Note: Stock ZR1 Corvette PCM must be shipped to us for upgrade.
Take a look at a couple of our before and after dyno runs of a customers ZR1 Corvette with our LS9 power package installed. As you can see in the graph the ZR1 Corvette was producing 429 rear wheel horsepower and 410 ft-lbs. of torque at 5500 rpm (red). After installation of our ZR1 Corvette Power Package the ZR1 produced 534 rear wheel horsepower and 510 ft-lbs. of torque at the same 5500 rpm (blue). Thats an improvement of over 100 horsepower and 100 ft-lbs. of torque on a stock ZR1 Corvette. Not only did this ZR1 produce greater numbers but it sounded like a pure race car with the C6 Corsa Exhaust System, Kooks Headers, and Kooks Mid Section. So if you thought adding to your ZR1 Corvette was impossible you may want to think again. Our power package will make any stock ZR1 accelerate faster and produce approximately100 more horsepower to the rear wheels.
