My before and after pics
My before and after pics Well....it's been a long time without my vette and it's great to have it back. This has been a very long process and is still a work in progress. Honestly, I am rather embarrassed of the engine bay. Sure, it has the wow factor, but needs some bling.
Anyways, here are a few before pics:
Here's some of the after (pardon the dirty car
)
And what makes her go:
LOL....I'm whoring out my car!

Those pics of your car when she is clean make her look like she's still wet. Awesome color. One of the brightest red cars I've seen. Did you give her the Zaino treatment ??
What kind of power did you make with the Maggie ?
What kind of power are you making with the Twins ?
Good looking ride.

Nice look'n ride.
Is that a PTK or Halltech TT system ? I liked the CCW classics a little more than the spoke rims, as the CCW's give it that racier look.
I see that you put on a tigershark front too, was that to help with the cooling ?
I'm doing some similar bdy mods to my vette. Tigershark front and chin spoiler, MCM hood, rear 3/4" ACP flares, CCW classics and a ACP rear fascia with spoiler.
How long did it take you to complete the work ?

With the maggie, I was making just over 500rwhp - 490rwtq. That was with a stock displacement motor, heads, cam, and exhaust (but was having problems with #7....the reason for the new build).
With the turbo setup, I am making just under 700 as it started spinning on the dyno. This is with a very conservative tune on 93octane. It's a LS2 based 403 at 9 psi.

I love the looks of the tigershark. That was another want/need.
It was a bounus that it helped with cooling the car. I am going to add a shroud to close the filter area off as I think that is my biggest problem now.I think your car will look bad *** when you get everything done!

Verdad Gallardo This is the Halltech TT. The wheels were a tough choice, but when I saw the iForged on another vette, I had to have them. Besides, I don't see these very often.

That is a heck of a motor and that Halltech TT is rare, I think there are only about 10 of them floating around.
Here what my car looks like now, I am going to remove the current body kit as getting wheels and tires to work with big brakes and this kit is a real pain.

**edit** Is your spolier part of the rear fascia? If so, where did you come across that from?
Thanks for the comps guys!
I don't have those particular pieces, but I do have some other stuff for sale. The radiator shroud would be one of them. It's sanded, primered and ready for paint.
Your car will def be P I M P when it's done. About the rarity of the Halltech, it's cool, but I don't really get off on that (it's true that there are less than 10 kits out there). I like that it's in your face.

What's nice about this fascia vs the tigershark is you don't have to change out the exhaust.
Here's a few more pics for ya of rear fascia.

As I was scrolling down through the pictures I was thinking to myself how much better I like the new hood. And then I scrolled down further and saw the underhood pictures. That thing looks freaking awesome!
