I was planning on doing the install myself, but got busy w/ wedding prep. Had Dusty at Blazing High Performance do the install while I was on my honeymoon and Mayhem Motorsports did the tune.

I'm out of town in PA for a wedding and should get the car back next week. Have some races planned and will post them here....

Gotta love 480 rwtq at 3500 rpms. Damn she's going to pull. Now go get some headers and make this car a legitimate 500/500 + daily driver. Awesome pics, ultra clean install, and most of all congrats on getting married.

The normal maggie hood like you have looks so much better on the c6 than the c5. Looks stock.

SWEET!!! The hood looks great too, can you advise total cost for hood, as I have a PC but that hood just makes the C6 look damn mean!!! 7.0 psi is awesome on 3.0"---is that the 90mm TB? Have you considered the 2.8" or the 2.6", the 2.6" requires the snout being grinded. Also, if you ever go with the smaller pulley, the 8-rib setup is a must. And if you want more power you can also swap the rear pulley---Sorry for emptying your wallet, its all good.
Congrats, Enjoy, go out and crush a few Snakes!!!

I got the hood from a CF member who decided not to get a maggie. RK Sport is selling them for around $850 and I bought this one for $750 shipped if I remember correctly. I paid just over $500 to get it painted....

I know there are other pulleys, h/c, etc... but one of my biggest concerns is the tranny... I want to see how it holds up and go from there. I really don't think I need more HP until I get some better rubber under the car.

Very clean look. I like it!

Is it just me, or does the 480 hp seem a little low? I thought that maggie'd C6s are over the 500 hp mark?

Stock h/c with maggie and tuning only, 480 rwhp is about right. My friend has a 2007 c6 with a Lingenfelter installed Maggie on his ride and made 483 rwhp 480 rwtq. I keep asking him when he's going to get some LG Pro longtubes or Kooks 1 7/8 and a catback to be around 510 rwhp 500+ rwtq.

This is an A6 car, stock heads/cam, stock exhaust manifolds and cats. Basically bone stock C6 w/ borla exhaust and a 3.0 pulley making 7 lbs of boost.

A MN6 car would probably be at 500 rwhp.
