Look what Katech is playing with.
C4 ZR-1 at Katech getting a check-up. On the chassis dyno it put down 386rwhp. Ported heads/intake, headers, Corsa, tune, clutch. Only 3500 miles on the car.

Katech is an excellent company. It'd be a nice addition for them to enter the playing field.

An LT5 with ported heads (and everything leading to it) has a heck of a lot more potential than 385 at the wheels. Sounds too like they didn't tickle 7K AND it might have stock exhausts too. (Maybe they did go to 7k. My ear is "tuned" for that 7200 dyno sound, and the pitch of that motor didn't sound like 7000, let alone 7200 which is what I'd expect for a fully ported motor. Hellz Bellz, Dom has a graph around here, and Marc's wall is papered with dyno sheets in the 400 rwhp range resulting from plenum/IH porting only!) I'm curious as can be 'bout the setup on that car at Katech. Hmmmm..... P

Re: Look what Katech is playing with.
They did not do the work on the car...just a tune up....see the notes , mods done in the early 90s

Re: Look what Katech is playing with.
KaTech is top notch. Weren't they responsible for early TransAm motors?
