That is an great article, lots of details I hadn't heard yet. Does the Z06 have as the same cooling capacity as the CTS-V? They seem to be making a pretty big deal about the auxiliary coolers, and I don't remember hearing about them on the Z06.

Yes, they are just located in the back. The "vents" you see behind the Z06 doors feed air into them.

That makes sense, given the Corvette's transaxle setup. I'd also be interested to see what kind of flow those front brake ducts put out.

Me too. It looks to be a pretty cool setup (no pun intended).

The under carriage pics of the exhaust layout really forecast what the next gen Camaro SS will possibly look like and I'm looking at the placement of the x pipe near the rear axle in this application.

Hennessey 2016 Cadillac CTS-V HPE1000

Beast!!!!



From the article:
Sealy, Texas-When the next generation Cadillac CTS-V hits the streets later this year, it will have 640+ hp and a top speed of nearly 200 mph. To the team at Hennessey Performance Engineering (HPE), this is a good starting point. The company plans to pick-up where they left off with the last gen CTS-V by producing the world's fastest 4-door sedan: The Hennessey HPE1000 Twin Turbo CTS-V.

2 pictures and full article
