| 10 Second 'Vette by 'Lingenfelter'! Chevrolet's Corvette ZR1 has proven that it can be a very fast car on the track (faster round the Nürburgring than the Nissan GT-R and - as much as I hate to admit it!  - the Porsche 911 Turbo) and on the straight line. Lingenfelter Performance Engineering is well known for their work on Corvette models. Their C6 Corvette ZR1 recently made three 9 second runs, hitting a best of 9.813 quarter-mile at 145.74 mph at the Maryland International Raceway. The Lingenfelter ZR1 has been upgraded with the company’s LS9 components designed to provide 739 rear-wheel horsepower and 740 rear-wheel torque. Upgrades to the Lingenfelter ZR1 include: - Lingenfelter cast aluminum supercharger air intake snout - Lingenfelter 8.5″ diameter harmonic balancer – 11 rib - Lingenfelter 2.60″ diameter supercharger pulley – 11 rib - Lingenfelter S&B air filter - 4′ diameter air intake tube with mass air sensor - Ported stock throttle body - Lingenfelter C6 ZR1 Supercharger Cast Aluminum air inlet - Double capacity intercooler heat exchanger - Larger capacity intercooler reservoir system - Mickey Thompson ET Street Radials R345/35R18 rear tires - M&H Racemaster P185/50R18 front tires - CCW aluminum wheels Video: Source: Lingenfelter Corvette ZR1 runs a quarter mile in 9.8 seconds (video) |
