Default Turbocharged C7 Spooling Up (Video)


Yes. Please.

Now, I'm not wholly sure what the details are on this car. I think that it just has a rear mounted turbo, but it might have two. It actually sounds more like a supercharger. Either way it's awesome. Can't wait to see this thing dialed in.

I think the turbos are rear mounted, like the STS kits, so that's why you're hearing them like that.

Lashway is a shop that is local to me, the guys there are great and this C7 is NASTY. Sounds good in the video but amazingg in person. Eric asked us not to say too much about it but I can confirm that it is a single rear mount, for the moment...
