    Procharger F1X + LT4 = Easy 1000+ whp

    Well, maybe not easy but it sure looks effortless. Supporting modifications for fueling are still necessary but stock internal C7 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 LT4's that trade in their Eaton TVS blower for a Procharger F1X centrifugal and top 1000 wheel horsepower are nothing new.

    One could make an argument that the power delivery of a centrifugal blower is better suited for the Z06. With the stock blower and its torque delivery getting traction is very difficult. In the video LMR supplies the car does not seem to have much trouble putting the power down.

    This car is all about the top end pull now:

    Just an absolute highway monster.

    All about top end? Looks like it's making 500+ ft lbs at 2,500 rpms to me. The top end being exceptional doesn't mean the power down low is lacking.

    Just because it is making 500 lb-ft doesn't mean it isn't a top end puller. The more it revs, the more the blower spins.

    It's a top end design and illustrated by the horsepower curve.

    Completely different from the stock torque delivery.

    It's a fun car. Just not from a stop. I could never get traction in the thing.

    Lost to a Tesla due to this lol.
