wow, does look killer! wonder if they will sell just a supercharger kit for us, looks like it fits good, probably be for rectangle port heads tho.

wonder if they had to drop the k-member a little to get it to fit. doesnt look like any cowl cutting.

It looks pretty much for show and all seeing that they kept the AC on there, those big *** new ZR1 wheels and the stock air box even! :yikes: That airbox will restrict the blower a ton if you are going for HP numbers IMO. It doesnt even look connected to the blower from that picture..

no, everything was connected and the car ran and drove! i was working at the show, so i didnt get any more pix or have time to find any more specs :-/

but obviously they left the stock airbox because its GM. i would have been surprised if they didnt leave it. I like this because if you had never seen the engine of a 4th gen, you would think it was straight from the factory!

oh yeah and it was a 6-speed

Yeah, they dropped the K member a inch and a half I believe I was told, and the Dr. was saying that the headers have no ground clearance now and scrape everywhere.

Also, the ZR1 wheels that are on that car look garbage imo.... WAY too big for a 4th gen. Were they 20s or 19s?

that sounds odd considering how much shorter this blower is over a mggie which doesnt require that much drop, plus the k member shift shouldnt affect ground clearance much at all since essentially your lifting this body off the kmember.
