Factory manifolds really cork these motors up, especially with a supercharger. There will be a substantial gain on your setup.

At least 450-475 with a conservative tune, and to be honest, I would ditch the Z06 rolling stock for something a little more condusive to 1/4 mi times.

To give you an idea I gained 200rwhp going from a stock motor to a P1 Procharger at 10lbs with Kook headers as the only bolt-on mods.

I Made 448 On 7 Lbs Thru My A4 With My Vortech. Good Choice In Superchargers Just Make Sure You Get Someone To Tune It Good For You.
