Yeah, we have a thread on it already, Stickers add HP, so the "ULTRA" Added about 100HP to the base Z28...

Yep, instead of the typical Z28's 346 ci LS1 engine, they gave it a turbo rotatry, with headers AND Pistons...



er, no. ultra Z doesnt exsist.


This thread title sounds like a letter to the editor in one of those gay pride magazines, btw.

Like he said, everything is true with stickers....and now we know they even make a car sound mean.

He had the autozone exhaust tips. They have a special resonance chamber that makes your car sound like it has a big cam and adds 10-100hp depending on the application.

They make a Ultra Z hood, maybe they come with the Ultra Z stickers

****, i figured more people knew about that car on here, I was just bugging you man, The "ultra Z" does exist, its a limited edition 2000 Camaro. here's what I can find on it..

Engine and drivetrain modifications came fast and furious with a set of headers starting the parade. Pacesetter jumped on board and supplied its Armour-coated 1 7/8-inch-long tube headers. Geoff and Angie Skinner of Thunder Racing supplied a TR224/224 cam and 918 valvesprings. After replacing the plug wires, adding a TR high-flow lid, Holley Blue air filter and 160-degree thermostat, TR tuned the car and Kevin was ready to turn his attention to lightening the car and upgrading the tires. SLP jumped in and supplied one of its sweet Ultra-Z fiberglass hoods. The addition of Yokohama AVS 100 tires in the stock 275/40/ZR17 size was just the recipe because the stock tires were getting thin. The original 10-bolt houses 3.23 gears, an Eaton posi, and a TR aluminum cover with girdle support. With dyno-verified 400 rear-wheel horses, it's a potent package.
