1000HP LMR Stage 2 Twin Turbo C8 Corvette - Late Model Racecraft

[@QuentinDicapo]

Love the video , but the sound of this car in person is unbelievable . From the time Steven and his Team started the build I had the upmost confidence in their ability. Steven was very honest about what it takes to build a car like this which made digging into pocket little bit easier😅. Justin was also a big help letting me know what was happening and when it was happening. Even after the car came home they have called after hours to check and make sure I was happy with the car and are even still helping me with best tire size and wheels for car. Steven and his Staff are top notch and although the only one I met in person was Justin, it feels like I know all of them from the many conversations to make sure I was totally blown away by the build. If anyone has doubts about LMR don't because they are THE Shop for cutting edge builds and top notch performance without a doubt ........Thanks to STEVEN , JUSTIN , MARK And The Entire Team At Late Model Racecraft.👍👍

[@LateModelRacecraft]

Thank you very much Mr Dicapo! We will always be here to support you and your vehicles in the future. Thank you for trusting us with this build!

that’s my dads car he got it back not long ago i’m so happy to ride in it again been a while😂😨🙌

[@LateModelRacecraft]

It’s a BAD car!! Highest horsepower TT C8 Corvette that I know of running on Stock ECM only and no meth, and she has plenty left in it. Another 5lbs of boost and it will be over 4 digits to the rear wheels.

Steve makes me want to get into R&D for a career. He knows his stuff.

[@LateModelRacecraft]

This video messed up while rendering. The STOCK C8 Corvette ran 10.8sec 60-130mph. So this package on this boost level picked up 4.8 seconds.

[@itshiho]

@StopthatThinking It's the gearing on the C8 that's the issue. Only option to hep combat that other than custom gears is a PD blower.

[@keithcring8011]

Definitely don’t drive that in the rain. Not a traction concern, you’ll probably hydraulic the motor.

[@rodneykimberlyhenry5056]

Love the channel, love what you do. Never apologize for talking about your passion, and what it takes to get it to the next level. It’s very easy to tell you love what you do.

[@LateModelRacecraft]

Thank you very much. I quit college after my 3rd year to start my business almost 20 years ago. It was a tough decision but I definitely still love what I do!

Wow what a beautiful build once again guys! Insane!!!

[@LateModelRacecraft]

Thank you very much!

[@LateModelRacecraft]

Agreed! I absolutely loved driving this car for a few days before we shipped it back home. Even sitting in horrible Houston traffic. haha

Hi ​@@LateModelRacecraft

[@JohnGrohman]

As always brother another great video! Your work is by far One of the Best in the Industry!!!

[@LateModelRacecraft]

Thank you very much! We try and stay on top of the GM performance Industry.

[@JavierTorres-py6rp]

Another beauty from the guys at LMR. Nice, nice, nice. My Mitsubishi Outlander blew up 5 days ago. Been using dad's X-Terra looking for a car for me. I found a 2001 Jaguar in pristine condition. Bought it. I wonder... could the magicians at LMR make it fast? Just kidding! Great job guys.

[@LR-my2di]

Great hearing about all of your cool cars (esp. the Outlander!) and what blew up! YES, PUH-leeeze take your dad's X-Terra OR that fine, rare 2001 Jag. to the LMR magicians!. I will excitedly wait for the results! Can't wait!

LMR, The best in the business 👌

[@MrDahkilla]

I liked and subbed cuz definitely wanna learn about this and will be coming to you for the 1000HP on my C8 Stingray. Will bring it straight to you right out of dealer’s lot.

[@ryanmatchett6481]

You are the mad scientist when it comes to boost ! Awesome video and I hope the owner enjoys this monster! Getting my catfish out tomorrow , can't wait to put the miles on. Future goals would be visiting Texas from NB, Canada..

Hell Yeah, Im almost ready to make the jump from my C7 to C8....love the C7 too much just yet

[@LateModelRacecraft]

We will be glad to get you taken care of when you’re ready to add more power to it. 😎

[@AJUSA1]

Great job. And you actually show the tangibles for the kit. Real dyno and draggy numbers… big credit for not hiding all that like so many others do. What u see is what u get and what u get is a fast ass vette 🔥

[@freak_5.042]

6.0 is fast but not for a car that made 870whp and weighs sub 4000lbs. He did mention the gearing is killing the time so I'm interested in hearing about that. For reference, my 4200lb 10R 5.0 run 6.1 60-130 at 700whp, straight pump 93, and 4.8 60-130 at 870whp.

[@LateModelRacecraft]

Thank you! That was the plan for this video and other C8 packages we offer. It seems a lot of other C8 builds only shows pictures and maybe idle clips. No real racing or action to show the end results. We want our customers to know what their vehicle can do once we are finished. Hope this helps.

[@LateModelRacecraft]

@@freak_5.042 Yes, but like previously mentioned. What does yours run 60-110mph? I think once we share what these C8s run 60-110mph you will see how truly quick they are to that mph, and with the help of gearing, they will run so much quicker to whatever speed we want to achieve.

[@LateModelRacecraft]

@@freak_5.042 Watch our last Mustang build. She ran a solid 5.0-5.1 60-130mph with 850rwhp. Just shows how gearing makes a huge a difference.

[@freak_5.042]

@@LateModelRacecraft Yes that's right I did see that video. Really enjoy the channel and your break down of the builds and then the 60-130 tests. Good honest workmanship 👍

[@Flexwithken]

Yea I think it’s easier to do the 6.2 than the 5.5 I heard that flat plane crank don’t like boost but that’s the best one as far as sound and more hp🔥🔥🔥

[@larrynewberry3500]

Great job again, guys.. I wonder how many times you have to talk about the gearing. Do you have any gearing options coming down the road?

[@blackula02]

That thing sounds super nasty!

[@LateModelRacecraft]

Thank you! One of the largest cam shafts we have installed to date in a C8 Corvette.

[@zmanmd1641]

Great video! Can the C8 twin turbo's fit with a center exhaust with the intakes outside away from the hot exhaust pipes?

[@ronAkshunjackson]

I like those Stark Wheels, does anyone know the specs?

[@taylorburford5246]

They are Signature brand

[@ronAkshunjackson]

@@taylorburford5246no there Stark monoblock DM51. I found them on their website. I believe there 20” front and 21” rear. I was hoping for widths and color finish.

[@nunyubizness5483]

@@LateModelRacecraft I am as well. But, not if you don't answer after asking multiple times: Why are you running the rear mount ETS twin turbo system instead of your top mount twin turbos??? Nice build. Thanks.

Are you guys doing anything with ERays yet?

[@LateModelRacecraft]

Yes sir, the same packages we offer for stingray will also apply to E-ray. 👌

[@charlesgarcia4928]

How much to twin turbo a 2024 C8?

When did it make 1000HP?

[@jwrice743]

Can these types of turbo setups be driven in the rain?

[@LateModelRacecraft]

Yes sir, both our top mount and rear mount can be daily driven if you so choose. 👍

[@patrickciarcia4100]

Beautiful…., 👍🏻😎

[@LateModelRacecraft]

Thanks 👍

[@jeffnoob8448]

So it's tuned on 93 and adds torco for added safety ? How much 😊

[@LateModelRacecraft]

Yes sir. This setup is running at 10lbs of boost. Plenty more in it whenever the customer chooses to turn her up. 💪

[@BOWDOWNLS3]

👏🏽🔥

[@evanphotography5149]

Anything similar package for HTC ? Thanks

[@LateModelRacecraft]

Yes, this exact package will be the same for the HTC.

[@machdaddy6451]

Encroaching on ZR1 territory.

[@LateModelRacecraft]

That’s the plan. This package should lay down more than the C8 ZR1 coming out, and most likely C8 Zora Corvette 🧐

[@losersquadhd1234]

Anyone else concerned about these low style turbo kits. I mean if you splash through 1 puddle and that it for the engine.

[@lindawilkins5381]

Turn audio up

[@itshiho]

Not to be mean but at that power level it should be running minimum low 5s 60-130 and possibly high 4s. I don't get it, it must be the gearing or something or perhaps you guys tuned it a certain way for 93 octane.

[@LateModelRacecraft]

Yes, as previously mentioned. We are comparing apples to apples. Stock C8 vs modded C8. If we want to compare C8s to other platforms, we will. We will show how these run just as strong from 60-110mph as other platforms, but because of gearing simply do not run the numbers other platforms do from 110-130mph. Hope that helps.

[@itshiho]

@@LateModelRacecraft Okay that makes sense. Their gearing is probably more track oriented, especially the Z51. I'm curious how the C8z will turn out with the same kit.

[@elibosox782]

Why is this car a full second slower, going 60-130, than the Mustang GT with almost identical hp?

[@LateModelRacecraft]

It’s actually quicker 60-110, but because of hearing slower from 110-130mph. We will post a video soon explaining more in detail.

[@NastyGenV]

kind of embarrassing 60-130 for the power. My FBO 6speed 6th gen ZL1 with stock non ported blower, 9.45 lower pulley stock upper on full E85 with meth did 5.9 60-130 full weight estimated 700-720whp. I guess the trans in these cars is really holding them back.

[@kalithor1]

Don’t mean to be rube but 60-130 in 6sec for a car that has 870whp and less than 4000 is not that crazy

[@LateModelRacecraft]

The 60-110mph is quicker than C7 Z06 with 850rwhp. The gearing is what makes the 110-130mph slower compared to other models. Like comparing apples to oranges. We will make a video explaining all of this so check back to our channel. Once we get our new gear sets in, this platform is going to FLY!

[@LateModelRacecraft]

Stock is 10.8sec, so you’re seeing 4.8sec gain which is HUGE! Again, need to compare apples to apples.

[@audawgg_tv]

Ain gon lie you talk alottttttttt I'm tryna hear dat engine!

[@LateModelRacecraft]

😂😂 I’m sorry!! Next videos will have more engine/boost sound!

[@audawgg_tv]

@@LateModelRacecraft i was joking keep up the detailed break downs!😂

[@mohsenkhatiblou311]

There is no way to make 850 WHP with only 10 lbs of boost and 93 octane. You have lost a lot of credibility at least with me.

[@nunyubizness5483]

Why are you running the rear mount ETS twin turbo system instead of your top mount twin turbos??? Nice build. Thanks.

[@justinranes3351]

Most likely cost. Don’t have to swap headers among other things.
