Post 409 LS1 motor with ATI F1 - 672.9hp/618.6 torque so far

I haven't posted anything about the car in awhile. This is mainly due to the fact that I haven't been to enthused about the numbers but things are starting to pick up. Today's pull produced 672.9hp at about 5800 and 618.6 ft-lb torque at 5200. One restriction that I see is the exhaust flowing through a 2.5" Y-pipe. That will be replaced with a 3" this week and then we can see about getting into the 700+ range.

A quick rundown on the car -

ARE 409 stroker motor topped with a set of Stage II LS6 heads and an LS6 intake. Internal components include - Ross pistons (8.9:1 compression), Lunati crank, rods and cam (.556/.578 112)

ATI F1 supercharger making about 18# of boost

1 3/4" TTS long tube headers with a 2 1/2" Y-pipe and a Corsa exhaust

4L60E with a Vigilante 3500 converter

Future upgrades include a larger cam and possibly tapping into the bottle that is mounted in the back.

To, your problem is in your exhaust.

The y-pipe is too small and the corsa isnt helping either.

Thats 3" y-pipe and 4" mufflex territory.

The stock 4L60E was upgraded when the car was converted from an M6. It's held up to 25+ trips down the track in the last 18 months along with over 50 dyno pulls.

There is now a 3" Y-pipe under the car along with a cutout. A larger exhaust would still be a benefit over this. Laying into the throttle to hard totally pisses off the tires. Then they scream and start smoking

Great numbers your kicking out with that beaSSt. What y-pipe did you end up going with? That seems like the culprit that would be hurting your numbers significantly at this point. Are you planning on attaching a larger exhaust (i.e. 4").
