Default 2010 Callaway SC-606

Recently picked up a 2010 Callaway SC-606. It is a blast to drive with 606 horsepower on demand. I bought the auto because I want to set it up for the 1/4 mile. I am much more consistent with the automatic transmission. Love the targa top as well. My future mods are a 4000 Stall. It already has a smaller pulley and tune and a ATI Harmonic balancer. Going to dyno it in the spring to see what I am working with. No dyno numbers yet.

Looks like a really nice Vette. Coming from a C4 the C6 is a much better platform.
Enjoy the ride.

looks nice, dont expect it to have 606 hp , not even at the crank but a smaller pulley will help and you should look into getting a meth setup for the car, that will help a lot when that blower gets hot.

Does the car have headers?

Sorry for the late reply. The Callaway has a smaller pulley and is tuned. No headers. They put out about 520-540RWHP on the dyno stock. Edmunds pulled 565RWHP but I think that was a happy dyno. Here is some of the the article.


"We brought the example you see here -- a 2010 Callaway Corvette outfitted with the SC606 package and other baubles unrelated to making power -- to a Dynojet 248 chassis dyno in order to see how much power it puts to the ground. Power rose with each pull and then reached stabilized for a few pulls after which heat soak started to erode output slightly upon each subsequent run. What you see here is the stabilized output. SAE weather correction was 2%. More than 500 lb-ft is on tap from 3,100 to 5,400 rpm, and the peak of 516 lb-ft arrives at 4,300 rpm. Peak power totaling 565 horsepower is delivered at 6,500 rpm, right before the fuel cut. It's the kind of stout and flexible powerband that can only be produced by boost plus a lot of cubes. The Callaway Corvette went about its business on the dyno without making a fuss, and the soundtrack is delivered at a sane volume. It's as though Callaway has had some time to hone their craft in developing these cars. As for the actual power, it's certainly producing what Callaway claims, and probably a touch more. In this business it's better to err on the conservative side.
If, y'know, a 600+ horsepower Corvette with a hood blister that looks like a giant scarab beetle can be called conservative."
