Dyno Day: The C8 eRay is a TORQUE MONSTER

[@jjcorv]

What's up Jesse, you're finally a youtuber. Congrats and i'll be watching. Cool E ray. Enjoy in good health.

[@jesse_iwuji]

Lmao I'm no KZbinr!

[@Vettedealer]

Torque monster indeed. Boost district just ran a twin turbo Eray and already hit 9s on stock tires . This platform has tons of potential!

[@jesse_iwuji]

So much potential

[@dlang1009]

I’m a Vette guy just sold my 8th C7 Z06 loved that platform. I love the sound and looks of the new Z, but this Eray has my attention. I can see high 9s in the near future without mush effort. Love the videos. The new Z sounds amazing.

[@g-long]

Nice! Love me some E-Ray and Jotech Motorsports! Win Win!

[@JoshuasFilmWorld]

wow..nothing like all wheel drive. I'm glad they made those E-rays. urs is a beast forsho

[@jesse_iwuji]

Thank you!

[@thiosemicarbizidebenzoylal2921]

At this point the entire C8 series is ignored by European automotive journalist because its so good.

[@jesse_iwuji]

They are heated 😅

[@IamOguguaIwuji]

Capable of anything capable 🤘

[@dlang1009]

Great video, looking at the Boost Logic Eray on the Dyno, your down between 40 and 50hp but up around 30tq compared to his Eray? Interesting data. Keep posting.

[@jesse_iwuji]

Great point!

[@maromyers964]

Congratulations 🎊

[@jesse_iwuji]

Thank you so much 😀

[@shatter71]

Thanks for taking your e-ray to the dyno right away and giving us numbers! The C8Z pulls hard so I can only imagine how the e-ray feels.

[@jesse_iwuji]

Most definitely!!

[@fdenniskenny9511]

WOW UNREAL!! THANKS FOR SHARING!! CANNOT WAIT TO SEE MORE!!😊 Dennis

[@jesse_iwuji]

More to come!

Perfection in human. JESSE is super good😊

[@richarddjohanson]

Should of done a first oil and filter change while you were there. Hope to see you at Irwindale, should be able to hook up with that AWD.

[@jesse_iwuji]

Wait till you see the drag race videos post over the next 10 days

[@2024CorvetteE-Ray]

So if this is 568AWHP to the wheels, that means it's 757 to the crank?

[@jesse_iwuji]

Nope! It’s not a front engine car

[@vulcanconstructionroofing7157]

Hey Jesse, Great Video! I have an ERAY being delivered any day now. I currently have a 23 Z06. I have put a very fun 5,000 miles on my Z. I also am #1 on my dealers list for the ZR1. I am trying to decide if I should trade in my Z when I pick up the ERAY. I love the Z but I am ready for something new. How does the ERAY compare to the Z06? I am really nervous that I am going to miss the sound of the 5.5 FPC motor. Since you have owned both, Considering I'll probably have to wait a year to get the ZR1. Would you keep the Z06 or take the ERAY? Thanks, David

[@jesse_iwuji]

It's tough to compare. Yep totally different monsters. One isn't an upgrade over the other. The z06 is special, and so is this. This eRay will give you more light to light fun. The z06 is lighter and sounds amazing....these 2 cars are equally cool

[@c8z06vitoria]

Man, there is no sound to that car, totally different than the Z06, I'll rather get the Stingray and save the money.

[@jesse_iwuji]

Stingray is so much slower. Just wait till you see the video I drop this Thursday

[@c8z06vitoria]

@@jesse_iwuji yes, I know that, but a car with no sound, I’m not a EV person, for the price I’ll take the Stingray, that’s what I meant

[@corystansbury]

​@c8z06vitoria But a stingray and eRay basically sound the same. I'm confused-- the eRay isn't electric.

[@leonforeman5062]

2100 DA you will be around three tenths slower. 10.63 is fast for the conditions. Car will run 10.30s/40s in much better DA.

[@jesse_iwuji]

That's my thoughts! I think 10.3

[@larrynewberry3500]

Thanks for the video. Nothing replaces the sound of the ZO6 except maybe the new ZR1. Have fun and enjoy both. I'm looking forward to what comes next.

[@jesse_iwuji]

Right on!

I think one reason why the gap between the E-Ray and Z06's dyno numbers is bigger than the rated difference is due to the electric motor powering down by the top of 4th (assuming the E-Ray Dynos in 4th). Because of that, when the engine is making peak horsepower, the motor is probably not making full power. I'd assume GM's rated horsepower for the E-Ray just adds the individual peak numbers from the engine and motor together. I'm guessing it's a speed thing and not an RPM thing, so I'd guess the car is still making full power from 1st through most of 4th. Could be wrong, but it seems to line up with the dyno graphs I've seen from Paragon, CSP, and Boost District, and the drag races I've seen from Hagerty & Edmunds. Regardless, it's making considerably more torque than the Z06 through its entire rev range, so no doubt she's quick, but the Z06 has it in the top end.

[@jesse_iwuji]

Good observation!
