Chevrolet: Corvette Twin Turbo Z06 on 2040-cars
Marmora, New Jersey, United States
The cover article in the November 2006 Vette Magazine about this car was entitled Overkill and the headline questioned, Could J.R. Granatellis twin turbo terror be the most powerful C5 on the road? I am pleased to present that very potent 972 HP 2004 Corvette Z06. This is a 1 of 1. This car was modified by Granatelli Motorsports and owner Joe Granatelli who is the nephew of motorsports legend Andy Grantelli. The car only has 7000 +/- miles on it and the VIN # is 1G1YY12S445108803. The color of the car has obviously been changed to a dark custom black cherry (formerly yellow as seen in the magazine articles). . The Z06 is a great car, but Granatelli Motorsports turned this Z06 into an AMAZING car. Highlights of the car include: Granatelli Twin Turbo kit featuring two Turbonetics 76mm ball bearing turbochargers producing 972 RWHP and 1057 lb./ft. at 12 psi (max boost) Engine bored and stroked to a 427 LS6 block with Darton sleeves Lunati forged crank/rods and Ross forged pistons 8.8:1 compression ratio TTI intercooler Granatelli exhaust with Corsa mufflers Granatelli Motorsports LS2 mass air sensor Granatelli 0 ohm plug wires FAST intake manifold Carbon fiber hood and carbon fiber door sill inserts Exedy carbon fiber clutch Twin Bosch 930 high pressure turbo fuel pumps manage the fuel system and sub-system (extra 5 gallon fuel cell) G-force T-56 6 speed transmission May 2015 added new premium ceramic front brake pads Adjustable wastegate and in-dash boost controller to go from mild to wild EFI Live mapping software to mazimize the fuel/air/spark mixture Baer Extreme-Plus 6R 6 piston brakes Classic Design Concepts Tiger Shark front and rear fascias RKSport carbon fiber hood Catz HID conversion HRE Granatelli Signature Series 19? wheels Stock 3:31 gears with Mark Williams halfshafts Michelin Pilot Sport tires -275/40ZR-19 Front, 345/35ZR-19 rear Weight 3125 purchased this vehicle for $60,000 in 2004 and invested another $125,000 (his cost) in time 9.76 at 154 MPH Runs on pump gas achieves approx. 20mpg during normal driving conditions has a 9 gallon fuel tank and a 3 gallon auxilliary fuel tank in front

The 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan is for drivers who value performance above all else
Sat, 16 Feb 2013The car you see above is the 2014 Chevrolet SS, and it's important both because it is the first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan from Chevy in 17 years, and because it will be the nameplate the brand uses on NASCAR tracks all across the country starting this year.
Though it wears a name as American as baseball and apple pie, the machine was actually designed and built in Australia, sharing most of its parts with the brand-new VF-model Holden Commodore. That said, the basic chassis bits are shared with other Chevrolet models like the Camaro and Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle.
While Chevrolet is happy to sell a Malibu or Impala to anyone looking for a mainstream family sedan, but the SS is reserved for buyers interested first and foremost in performance. Most sedans sold these days are front-wheel drive, which is great for everyday driving and when the weather goes bad, but the SS is instead a rear-wheel-drive vehicle aimed at enthusiasts who love to drive and who prefer speed and performance above all else.
