Default Red C5 w/ Black Stripes and a Blower Houston Area...

I just got some good runs in with a red c5 corvette. It was red with black stripes, droped on chrome 18" z06 wheels, it had a cowl hood that said 525HP on it. We ran on the westpark toll and ran dead evenm from 90-140. Then we exited Dairy Ashford and did a 20-130 pull, I ended up about 3-4 cars out on him. He said it had LT's, X-Pipe, Corsa and a roots blower (magnussun I think it is spelled?). Anyhow if anybody has seen this car or knows the guy tell him good runs, was a VERY badass vette.

Yea, he said he dynoed 526 but with the pills I am running it didnt seem like it, from freeway speds we were dead even and from the low roll I really pulled him well, from 1st to 4th I was steady increasing my lead. Was a badass vetet, the blower sounds like an 03 cobra, and the small cowl hood was sweet. The corsa sounded great too.

Belongs to a Doctor down here in the westside of Houston - His name is James - we tuned the car here and did a couple of upgrades to it.

Makes a little bit over 500 at the tires.

Thanks man. Any other info, from what I gathered it was a magnusun? blower and LT's, was it a stock motor car? If you ever talk with him again ask him about me, he didnt seem to happy about the outcome, hehe.

Stock motor, heads, cam, LT and the Maggie - pretty conservative setup - around 5 lbs of boost.
