Hear All About The 850-HP Katech C7 Corvette Z06 On This POV Test Drive: Video

Katech is perhaps best known for offering a naturally-aspirated, 700-hp LT1 V8 to ordinary (read: non-racing driver) Chevrolet fans, but in fact, the firm offers a whole line of performance products that support both the LT1 and LT4 V8 engines.

Actually, most of Katech’s catalogue can be found on this corn-fed Chevrolet C7 Corvette Z06, which makes 850 horsepower at the crank. The extensive list of upgrades can be seen in the description of the video, but we’ve included a few of the big ticket items here to give you an idea of what you’re looking at:

  • Katech Stage 4 engine package
  • Katech flex fuel conversion
  • Katech fuel system with twin 350-lph Deatchwerks pumps
  • American Racing 2″ headers
  • TIKT heat exchanger system
  • TIKT oil cooler
  • Katech LT4 lightweight flywheel
  • DSC Sport suspension controller

One of our favorite features is the DSC Sport suspension controller, which allows Katech to tune the MRC suspension using an ordinary smartphone.

A carbon-fiber front splitter and rear wing by TiKT, plus a suite of additional carbon-fiber pieces from Katech, give this Z06 a much more aggressive look than when it left the factory. These enhancements are complemented by Katech KT1 forged 19×10 & 20×12 wheels in a matte black finish, wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires.
