It’s always fun when a new platform gets released from GM and the 6th gen ZL1 was no exception to this. We received a phone call from a long time customer that we have built several vehicles for in the past including a 600rwhp Z/28 Camaro, 1,400rwhp twin turbo C6 Z06, and a 750rwhp C7 Z06 stating that he had just taken delivery of his 2017 Camaro ZL1 with the new 10spd Auto. Being no stranger to horsepower, this customer requested a build package that would not only drive and perform well on the street, but also crest the 1,000rwhp mark with ease and become an Exorcist slayer. At the time, our R&D ZL1 was at Procharger to develop the first ever F1A-94 system with air to water intercooler for this platform, so we went ahead and placed an order on a 2nd kit to be installed on this vehicle. For this 1,000+rwhp combination, we opted for the following:

• Procharger F1A-94 Supercharger system with Air to Water intercooler setup
• Vengeance Racing Stage II camshaft kit
• Vengeance Racing CNC Ported LT4 Cylinder Heads
• Vengeance Racing Engraved Valve Covers
• Vengeance Racing Auxiliary Fuel System
• Late Model Engines Billet Intake Manifold
• Kooks 2” Longtube Header System w/ Full exhaust
• Alkycontrol Dual Nozzle Methanol Injection System
• Moroso Catch Can
• BMR Lowering Springs
• Ecu Calibration on 93 octane, E85, and C16 race fuel
• Custom “VR1100” badging


















Once everything was installed it was time for dyno and street tuning. With this combination our customers ZL1 made 852rwhp/685rwtq on 93 octane, 937rwhp/751rwtq on E85, and a final number of 1,046rwhp/785rwtq on C16 race fuel! This made our customer’s car the FIRST ever 1000+rwhp 6th Gen ZL1, and allowed us to deem this package the “VR1100”.









Dyno numbers are great but we wanted to know how this would translate on the street and track. We headed to Carolina Dragway for some testing. This combination with the ZL1 ran consistent 9.5’s @ over 152mph all while on factory 20” wheels with Mickey Thompson Drag radials. We unfortunately ran out of time at the end of the night on our session to push the car further, but this combination has now been proven to run solid 9.30’s at 153mph on the same setup with our R&D car with a bit more tweaking of the transmission tune.




















There is a lot of room to push this setup further. Demons and Exorcists alike be careful! Vengeance Racing’s Turn Key VR1100 ZL1 is on the hunt.
