Got my 2017 ZL1 6MT tuned with a ported throttlebody 90mm and RotoFab intake and 102 Octane tune on the dyno and achieved 690 horsepower (motor) and 860 Nm of torque at 30 °C surrounding conditions, Love the car ;) tuner (Geiger Performance, Germany) also told me the 6MT are way better in performance dispersion as the automatic version
How would that intake compare to the stock box with the hood down and on the road @ 100mph? That would be real world. Dyno tuning is always with the hood up and at mostly lower wind speeds.
On a stock car with the stock throttle body the Big Gulp is only another 5ish hp. On a car with more modifications such as headers, pulleys, larger throttle body, ported supercharger or aftermarket supercharger, the Big Gulp can be 20hp over the the standard 4".
Yes. Either one of those would keep the knock down. Careful when mixing leaded race gas in though. The lead can foul the oxygen sensors. Just a 2-3 gallons per full tank is all that's needed.
It doesnt void warranty. Everytime they do warranty work they scan the car and if it comes back different from manufacturer tuning then you void the warranty. I just talked to my dealers shop repair manager and he said the cai don't void warranty unless you tune the car.
Great video. Very informative!! I actually just ordered a Roto fab today for my 21.
Nice work thanks for helping the community

Everything else was stock
Transmission gearing would be the difference between the two models
Love to see this compared to Corsa's New C.A.I

Why is the R-F intake power curve fluctuating up top and dipping down before 6500rpm?
Good stuff! Nice car.
Too bad it’s an automatic. Fail.
great video...what's the story with GM's suggested 'break in' period for those engines......most say 500 miles
What Rotofab unit was that? It didn’t look like the Big Gulp. Great video too by the way. 👍🏽 thank you.
That was the standard 4" Roto-Fab.
Not a Big Gulp, that would require PCM tuning.
Do you know how how much more HP and Torque you would have gotten from installing the Big Gulp with the PCM tuning ck paired to the 4” root-Fab.

@@ApeMotorsports that’s some good info. Thank you sir 👍🏽
Matt. Is it possible to get a tune from ya?
Would you run octane booster or cut with some Sunoco 260gt to stop the knock on the top end?
Yes. Either one of those would keep the knock down. Careful when mixing leaded race gas in though. The lead can foul the oxygen sensors. Just a 2-3 gallons per full tank is all that's needed.
@@ApeMotorsports do you think an aftermarket tune would reduce the knock on the top end vs the stock tune?
@@colbygraves9298 Yes. You could make adjustments in the tune that would reduce the knock.
Why? Without a tune it’s minor. And it voids warranty.
With a tune it voids warranty
