ryan, turbo its using is a custom PT74/76 DBB, on a 3.2l engine. so for a reference point, if ray made an easy 800whp on a PT76 why cant a bigger engine on a similar turbo put that power down??

note that the power is to the front wheels. see my Haldex explanation. AWHP is probably in the mid-upper 600 range. the Z06 is also lighter than the R32, steel widebody+ big wheels and whatever else it has adds up. take into consideration a STOCK R32 weighs like 3500lb.

for those interested in the R32

leather, heated everything, power everything, AWD, iron blocks, big wheels, big brakes, crazy rear suspension vs trailing arm like i have… it all adds up…

and as you should know, power : weight is huge, the vette stock to stock is like 400lb lighter, emanuel makes similar power, and he has great gearing.

and where is the 125whp difference? its AWD on the street, only FWD on the dyno, as ive explained in this thread. the haldex cannot function correctly on a dyno so its unhooked making it FWD only. so the numbers you see are FWD only. owner of the car says mid 600s on pump fuel.

That R32 is jam packed with airbags, this weird thing called technology, a chassis that no doubt is way stiffer and safer than your camaro, and AWD.
