Engine, Induction, & Calibration
We started with a Billy Boat Fusion exhaust system, which maintains full functionality of the AFM and variable sound valves, keeping the refined dual-mode tone the C8 is known for. On the intake side, we bolted on a Performance & Design Carbon R High Ram intake manifold, paired with a Lingenfelter 95mm throttle body and Halltech cold air intake—all designed as true plug-and-play upgrades requiring no tuning at this stage.
For improved stopping performance, a GiroDisc two-piece rotor and pad kit was added, while a set of Paragon Performance wheel spacers gives the car a wider, more aggressive stance. The ECM has already been unlocked by Trifecta Performance, setting the stage for upcoming tuning and further power upgrades.
Stay tuned—this is just the beginning for the KTR shop C8.
Dyno Results
Note: Bolt-on test configuration; no tune required. ECM unlocked by Trifecta Performance for future tuning and calibration testing.
