There will be a tuner kit available from ATI fairly soon. There are only minor differences from the LS2 C6. Well if you consider 150+HP over the SC LS2 C6 minor. hahaha

LS7 and a F1a would make a nice combo!

i thought ProCharger had destroyed a couple of LS7's while testing????

Swap out the pistons in the LS7 engine for forged ones, and there shouldn't be any problems. Bob

Why would you swap out forged TI rods?? Maybe have them rebushed, but that is all.

That car was a victim of LS7 valvespring trouble. It broke an intake valvespring on the road. It had nothing to do with ProCharger.

The ATI ProCharger Tuner kit will have a retail of $6595 and comes standard with a P1SC-1 with a D1SC being a regular upgrade option. F1/F1C is also a possibility.

Kit should be available sometime this spring.

Yes, kit development was done and the owner built another engine utilizing an F1C and then an F1R.

ATI currently has an '07 Z06 that is being finalized as we speak.

I have been emailing Kenne Bell and they are working on a C6 LS7 kit right now, that should be done in a couple months. I question putting it on the stock LS7, but swapping out the pistons and that would be a wild setup! I think their C5 kits sell for about $7K with a new hood.

Hello all,
Scott over at lateral-g.net posted this video.

This ZO6 uses the factory ecu, too.

Is swapping out the pistons enough to address compression on the LS7 for this?

If you're going to do that wouldn't it be better to just swap out to better head gaskets....Also do they already have head studs from the factory?? If not then it would definitely help with head lifting...
