8-0-0: Lingenfelter Empties the Stables to Crank Up the Corvette Z06

Date posted: 01-31-2006

DECATUR, Ind. — Lingenfelter Performance Engineering, known for its fire-breathing modifications to Corvettes and other cars, is offering a new Gen-2 Twin Turbo package for the Chevrolet Corvette Z06 that bumps up the 427-cubic-inch V8 from the standard 505 hp to 800 hp.

The $45,995 package takes six to eight weeks to set up on the 2006 Corvette Z06 and includes professional assembly and engine blueprinting, twin Garrett turbochargers, custom stainless-steel exhaust manifolds and turbo outlets, forged aluminum pistons, forged steel connecting rods and a high-capacity fuel system.

Lingenfelter quotes an eight-to-12-week lead time to carry out the modification.

What this means to you: Money equals power. Horsepower.

Will this one break the 250 mph like the Sledgehammer did 15 years ago?

I wonder what Callaway has up his sleeve?

Was the top speed ever measured for the Lingenfelter TT 427 C5? I remember the top speed being estimated around 240, but I dont think they ever tried to reach its max. That was a damn fast car...0-60 in 1.97 seconds and quarter mile in the 8's....
