Default ZL1 vs Turbonetics 5th gen

(Left) ZL1 Vert had headers/intake and tune
(Right) SS has the new 50 state legal turbonetics 76mm turbo kit at 7lbs, otherwise stock.
Both 6 speed manual.

Camera car is my LQ4 T/A.

Watch in HD! They let off around 135-140 or so

Zl1 looked like it kept pulling the longer they went.

Nice run! I thought the turbo SS would pull the ZL.

We're all buds, the ZL1 lives in my neighborhood and the SS closeby. We're doing some work to the SS soon, fixing a lot of small issues it has and the owner plans to turn it up and see what it will really do. It can only get faster. Keep trying to talk him into an auto swap but he likes his 6sp.

Keep trying to talk him into it, lol. He won't look back. Surprised that the ZL1 beat him though.

Good run. A ZL1 that actually didn't under-perform.
