2004 Twin Turbo Corvette Z06 Modified By Granatelli Motorsports 972 HP The cover article in the November 2006 Vette Magazine about this car was entitled "Overkill" and the headline questioned. "Could J. R. Granatelli's twin turbo terror be the most powerful C5 on the road?". I am pleased to present that very 972 HP 2004 Corvette Z06. Dyno sheets accompany the car. This car was modified by Granatelli Motorsports and owner Joe Granatelli who is the nephew of motorsports legend Andy Grantelli. The car only has 5800 +/- miles on it and the VIN # is 1G1YY12S445108803. The color of the car has obviously been changed to a dark custom black cherry (formerly yellow as seen in the magazine articles). In a nutshell. for the price of a brand new standard Corvette. you can have the most unique. road burning. eye opening. hair raising. traffic stopping. modified. tuned Corvette on the planet and isn't that really what you want. The Z06 is a great car. but Granatelli Motorsports turned this Z06 into an AMAZING car. I sold this car for Mr. Granatelli in October of 2009 with the only 1400 miles on it at the time. The owner recently contacted me and asked me to re-market the car now with 5800 miles. This is truly the "ULTIMATE" Corvette. Highlights of the car include: - Granatelli Twin Turbo kit featuring two Turbonetics 76mm ball bearing turbochargers producing 972 RWHP and 1057 lb. /ft. at 12 psi (max boost) - Engine bored and stroked to a 427 - LS6 block with Darton sleeves - Lunati forged crank/rods and Ross forged pistons - 8. 8:1 compression ratio - TTI intercooler - Granatelli exhaust with Corsa mufflers - Granatelli Motorsports LS2 mass air sensor - Granatelli 0 ohm plug wires - FAST intake manifold - Carbon fiber hood and carbon fiber door sill inserts - Exedy carbon fiber clutch - Twin Bosch 930 high pressure turbo fuel pumps manage the fuel system and sub-system (extra 5 gallon fuel cell) - G-force T-56 6 speed transmission - Adjustable wastegate and in-dash boost controller to go from mild to wild - EFI Live mapping software to mazimize the fuel/air/spark mixture - Baer Extreme-Plus 6R 6 piston brakes - Classic Design Concepts Tiger Shark front and rear fascias - RKSport carbon fiber hood - Catz HID conversion - HRE Granatelli Signature Series 19" wheels - Stock 3:31 gears with Mark Williams halfshafts - Michelin Pilot Sport tires - -275/40ZR-19 Front. 345/35ZR-19 rear - Weight 3125 pounds - Best time - 9. 76 at 154 MPH - Runs on pump gas - achieves approx. 20mpg during normal driving conditions - has a 9 gallon fuel tank and a 3 gallon auxilliary fuel tank in frontFrom Mild to WildThe most amazing thing about this car aside from the shear brute horsepower according to Joe Granatelli is the fact that you can dial down the boost to 612HP and comfortably use this car as a daily driver.
