Yeah, I've watched a couple recent ones. That CTS-V with the KONG Performance 2650 supercharger is NUTS!!
Stupid fast. Granted it's a built 416,IIRC, but still. Stupid fast.
The C6Z06 and C6ZR1 are still my favorites as well. The best damn lines!
the c6 z0 and Zr are some sexy mofos, it the interior is dated AF.
The C7Z06 offers c6ZR level performance.
the C7 looks like an exotic to me, in a very good way.
I guess it all depends on what gives YOU the most for your money?
If you don’t care about interior, go ZR. But if you wanna have it all, I’d go c7z.

The interior is dated, but its good enough(IMHO), especially considering the performance of the vehicle...
oh, fo sho.
One thing in favor of the LT4 is that blower swaps are much easier from what I can tell. Procharger setup makes HUGE power. But you have to switch out the DI. LS9 is better out of the gate but there are fewer options. You can port. I believe Kong just came out with a 2650 rotor pack/case that is same dimensions as factory so fits the ZR1 hood.
I read that there was a factory option where you could sit on the assembly line to put together an LS9. Bad ass.
I think the complaints regarding the interior quality/fit-finish are all too common on these cars...it’s a damn vette! If I wanted a plush ass interior, I’d be shopping for an AMG, M or CTS-V. I personally like the C6 interior, it’s simple and minimalistic. And being a terminator guy, I love the rawness of it. Don’t want to get too far away from that in a fun car. Just my opinion.
Klaus, didn’t Kong make 1000 whp through a ported blower car recently? And off the bottle?
I understand where you come from. Been there myself. But when comparing two cars with damn equal performance and fantastic exterior looks, why not go with the one with the killer interior as opposed to the basic one?
I hear you, tho. I respect that.
I was not aware of that but I do not doubt it. I did not mean to imply that LT4 was better platform, I just like the idea of the procharger swap.
From what I have seen there are more big power LS9s out there than LT4s. But each are excellent platforms IMO.
My man,.................
I think KONG just recently made their own version of the 2650 supercharger.
yep, RPM had a special episode about it
Yes, that's where I saw it.
Awesome stuff.
Is that what they put on the CTSV or am I thinking of something else?

Yes, If I had a C7Z06 I’d blower swap it, but if I had a C6ZR1 I’d keep the 2.3L. The blower on the C7 is just too small for the engine in my opinion. They could’ve had the 2.3L on it at the same factory power level and it would be the more efficient blower at that power level.
Pick your poison.
