# Vengeance Racing’s Chevy Camaro ZL1 Makes 1,047 HP At the Wheels

Building a 1,000-horsepower muscle car is becoming more and more common among tuner shops. Although it still takes a lot of work, having a 650+ horsepower foundation vehicle does not hurt. Recently, Vengeance Racing built a 1,000-horsepower 2017 [Chevrolet Camaro ZL1](<https://www.thedrive.com/news/10353/chevy-camaro-zl1-1le-extreme-track-performance-package-dominates-race-tracks>)...and needless to say this monster sounds like it can wake the dead.

Now let's be very clear: When Vengeance Racing says they built a 1,000-horsepower Camaro ZL1, they actually mean they made a 1,047-rear-wheel-horsepower Camaro ZL1 rocking 784 lb-ft of torque at 19 PSI on C16 race fuel. The ZL1 uses a [Procharger](<https://www.thedrive.com/accelerator/3648/watch-this-3-200hp-twin-supercharged-ford-mustang-run-a-4-18-quarter>) F-1A-94 supercharger system, along with a laundry list of other parts listed below, to achieve such impressive numbers.

This particular build will be a package available to Vengeance Racing customers under the name VR1100. Pricing is still unclear on the build, but it wouldn't be outrageous to assume the total vehicle costs well over $75,000, since the Camaro ZL1 itself starts around $62,000.

Unfortunately, we do not know any of the performance times for Vengeance Racing's manic muscle car yet, but the stock [Camaro ZL1](<https://www.thedrive.com/watch-this/9369/watch-the-650-hp-chevy-camaro-zl1-10-speed-accelerate-to-180-mph>) already hits 60 mph in 3.5 seconds and tops out at 190 mph...so we can only imagine the insane performance stats this thing will put down.
