Thumbs up 2011 C6 ZR1 vs 2013 GT500

I Didnt see a thread about this race I think everyone will enjoy it..

Air filter/Tune 2011 C6 ZR1 made 535rwhp on Mustang dyno (around 560-570rwhp dynojet
Pulley/Tune/CAI 2013 GT500 somewhere between 650-700rwhp from what I've read at SVTPerformance

Enjoy

60-150mph

good run, but those cars are definately closer in hp. 535whp is very low for a stock zr1... nevermind one with a couple bolt ons and tune. I say the gt500 has maybe 50whp on the vette which is not enough to overcome the weight advantage.

Way over 50rwhp maybe 90-120rwhp ..
ZR1 is around 570rwhp on dynojet maybe less the GT500 with Pulley/Tune and CAI is proven easy 650-700rwhp
But yes Good run and GT500 ran great with weight difference

easy with offroad x pipe... its hard to push all that through stock cats. If it had an x pipe i would agree with those hp numbers. My guess is its right in the 650whp area. Theres a 600lb difference between the 2 cars. If it truly did make 120whp more then the vette...thats more then enough to cover the weight difference and the gt500 should have pulled. Idk maybe the driver wasnt fully there in the gt... vette driver was pretty good. Either way, i want a z06

With stock cats he right not making 700whp. Maybe 670whp at most. With a dyno tune.

Nice runs! Results look right on the money.

WRONG! In stock trim, most ZR1's will put down 510-530 on a Mustang dyno. My car did 541whp on a 248 Dynojet if that helps. No way a ZR1 with those mods is going to be close in power numbers to a '13 GT500 with Pulley/Tune/CAI. It's been proven to see ~50whp with just tune alone, matter of fact a sponser here saw 45whp I believe.

Diablosport made 617whp on a conservative dyno with tune only. Add intake and pulley to that and do the math. lol And 600lb difference? Where'd you get that from? It's long been known it takes a GT500 a crap load more power to run with a C6 and this one is no exception.

The ZR was starting to check out pretty good when they let out.

First of all... calm down...

Second of all.. The new gt500 isnt the old gt500 platform. Diff motor, diff blower, diff aero...everything is diff. A 600whp bolt on pullied 08 gt500 will get walked by a stock 2013 gt500 that makes the same whp. Unlike the older gt500s, the new ones actually run the ET and traps they should for there power to weight ratio.

GT500 weight - 3850
ZR1 - 3250
= 600lb difference.

As far as power is concerned.. Evolutions car made 740 with pulley, tune, and a full exhaust (longtubes, no cats, high flow exhaust). ALOT of that power came from the catless x pipe. You arent pushing massive power through emissions legal cats. Its not happening. Almost everyone i know who has tried that, has ended up with missfire issues or there cats ending up in there mufflers.

Evolutions car trapped 142 with 740whp. So if this car makes 700, it should trap roughly 135-137... and it got pulled on pretty decently by the zr1. So this zr1 traps 140?

Both cars in stock trim it would have been even uglier. The Zr1 simply outclasses the GT500 in every way. The mustang held its ground however, but nothing too surprising here.

Whoa Billy...let's not get offended here. I was simply stating your claims were all wrong that is all. Just telling it how is, no offense intended.

A 600whp bolt on pullied 08 gt500 will get walked by a stock 2013 gt500 that makes the same whp.

I'm aware of this. The old ones ran the number too with a better tire than what came from the factory. Also, look at how the '13 GT500 stacks up stock for stock with a C6 Z06: Roughly 700 pounds heavier but with ~150whp advantage yet the C6 Z will run at its door in a drag and roll race. Think about it...

GT500 weight - 3850
ZR1 - 3250
= 600lb difference.
A close friends '13 GT500 weighed in at 3750 without him in it. Another '13 the same day tipped in at 3771. For comparison, a 2011 ZR1 will weigh in at around 3350 dry. Closer to a 400lb difference between the two. The '09 Z's like my current one without Nav, side airbags, etc. weigh in the least at around 3320.

As far as power is concerned.. Evolutions car made 740 with pulley, tune, and a full exhaust (longtubes, no cats, high flow exhaust). ALOT of that power came from the catless x pipe. You arent pushing massive power through emissions legal cats. Its not happening. Almost everyone i know who has tried that, has ended up with missfire issues or there cats ending up in there mufflers.
I'm not saying the car in question is making 740. What I am stating is its surely a much larger gap than than what you stated, and the Mustang is making atleast 100whp more than the Z with those mods.

Evolutions car trapped 142 with 740whp. So if this car makes 700, it should trap roughly 135-137... and it got pulled on pretty decently by the zr1. So this zr1 traps 140?
I'm not sure what this car traps. All I know is its going to take more than what its got to run with a intake/tune ZR1.

A ZR1 is closer to 3350 as it leaves the factory.
