Corvette Z06 GeigerCars
The stock Z06 already has 511hp. But to these germans that's just not enough.
Theyve put on their stage 1 kit. (More stages are to follow at some point)
This means theyve done some minor engine tuning and a new exhaust system, these upgrades mean the power output is now on 542hp.
It helps the Z06 to reach 100km/h in a mere 3.7 seconds. It made the topspeed increase to 327 km/h. Furthermore they upgraded the brakes and tweaked the suspension.
Obviously they also have to tune the exterior a little bit, but still making it look classy in all black.

sorry to go slightly off topic here but do any of you guys over in the US know how much a Chevy LS6/7 engine would cost to buy on its own?

The rear wheels look kinda like the don't fit or something. Maybe its just the angle of the picture. Other than that its nice.

A LS6 crate motor costs about $7300.00-$7500.00.
I don't know the cost of the LS7 crate motor, I haven't seen it being sold by itself yet in any mags.

That car runs a mid 10 sec quarter mile stock, almost as fast as a stock R-1 ! Can you imagine what it runs now?

cool, thanks for the info, do you know if that would come with the gearbox etc too?, would like to get my hands on an LS6 or LS7 within the next year for a little project, i guess it would be a lot cheaper and easier to buy one from the US and have it shipped over than try and buy the motor from over here.

No, the transmission would not be included in that price.
That's the price for the crate motor only.
