C6 w/ProCharger Question

This may not be the right forum, but I needed a little info and figured you guys would have all the answers.

I just drove a 2005 C6 (non-Z06), equipped with an ATI ProCharger, Lingenfelter heads, and Borla exhaust. Automatic. It was on a dealer lot and the salesman didn't have anymore specific info about the car, so I don't know if there were any additional mods. He claimed the car had over 600 bhp. The little research I've done suggests that similar cars are putting out anywhere from 530-550 rwhp, so his claim of over 600 bhp seems reasonable.

My question is: What kind of 1/4 times are similar cars getting? It felt very strong. I just drove an F430 yesterday and this Corvette definitely felt quicker. Seat of the pants suggests low-mid 11's. Am I right?

Thanks in advance.

Re: C6 w/ProCharger Question

A C6Z here in Kansas City had a P1-SC installed at MCRacing (between 4 and 5 pounds boost, no other mods), was tuned and went to the track the night it was finished. Did three passes that night, 11.1 was the slowest, 10.8 was the fastest (the other was a 10.9 something I think).

(this is not heresay btw...I saw the install and went to the track with them that night)

Re: C6 w/ProCharger Question

The hp level is about right with a standard kit, usually the auto's with a 6 psi system net high 400's to the rear wheel on a stock vehicle, so with heads and such you should be over 600 to the crank easy. As far as 1/4 times go thats tough since it is an auto and worse off a 4spd with 2.73 gears from the factory, its going to make the car slow in the 1/4. Infact next to a lightly modded c5 z it would be a close race. If you decide on this car I'd highly recommend a 3.42 rear end and if you really wanted a jump off the line look into a 2800rpm or so stall.
