Default C6 Z06 Widebody + Procharged Stroker Engine Build (Lots of Photos)

A customer of ours purchased a white C6 w/ A6 Auto in January 2006 and immediately brought it to us for a head/cam install. We installed our stage 2 head/cam package and the car made 440 RWHP. Recently he decided that just wasn't enough and brought it to us for the following list of modifications:

Livernois Motorsports CNC Stage 3R LS-Series Cylinder Heads
Livernois Motorsports Custom Camshaft
Livernois Motorsports Carbon Fiber Fuel Rail Covers
ProCharger D1SC Intercooled Supercharger w/ 8-Rib Conversion
Kooks Longtube Headers and X-Pipe w/ Cats
Borla Catback
Complete APS Fuel System
Fully Built A6 Transmission
GM Z06 Body Panels Painted and Installed by Livernois Motorsports
Zip Products Carbon Fiber Hood Painted and Installed by Livernois Motorsports
GM Z06 Suspension
GM Z06 Brakes
HRE 540R Wheels - 20x12.5 Rear, 19x10 Front
Nitto Invo Tires - 345/25/20 Rear, 285/30/19 Front

Here are some photos of the build...

Good Lord I need more money.

Ball park on this whole job? Yuu guys did a hell of a job!
Why would he still run an LS2 intake? Im sure with FI it wouldnt make a whole lot more power with a 92 but hell 10 hp is 10 hp. He was tapped out huh? Lol.

Well, he bought the car new and could have almost bought it again for what he put into it, but the wheels/tires alone were almost $10,000.

I think it's cool, because other than the Ron Fellow's edition which they only made about 300 of, there is no white C6 Z06. I'm just glad he didn't put Z06 emblems on it.

Hey Rick, so bottom line, how much RWHP / RWTQ did she make and where is the graph ???

404 + D1sc should = sick power.

The wheels are awesome, but with that much power I would have picked a rim size that would allow the 555 RII or Toyo R888s to put it to the ground.

Is there a pool on how long the A6 lasts?

When he came in, he said he wanted to make 800 crank hp, which is easy with that combo. We want him to break it in before we change the pulley to make his goal of 800 HP (700 RWHP), but so far made 615 RWHP. I would think it's good for high 10's on a tire how it sits.

Did I mention it's a daily driver

I went for a ride with him and from a 70 roll, it blows the tires off like most cars would from a dead dig.

He specifically wanted that size tire, because he said that was what was on the new ZR1.

The A6 is fully built, so it should take all he can throw at it.

It is a developmental build that has been orchestrated between us and Rossler Transmissions. We are confident that this will hold up to the horsepower level that our customer wants to achieve. As I am certain all of you with A6 tranmissions know, it is still a grey area as all of the parts have to be custom built for this transmission. Rossler, in cooperation with us, is having to develop the parts as we see what fails.

knowing that a Rossler built tranny is in the works will be a relief to many with an A6.

Simply Bad *** guys, just one of the many reasons why all of my cars work and parts come from you guys.

I think the D1sc is perfect for that, maybe an f1 would have made more power, but wouldn't be nearly as fun to drive IMO. Once again, a masterful combo by you guys. You really know how to tune in to what a customer wants and translate it into a complete package.

Very classy looking. Not a fan of chrome and white but, it does look very nice. Great job on the build/quality/pic's.
