We are starting with a 100% stock Z06. The fuel system will remain stock with larger injectors. The kit does not require an upgrades to the fuel system to run 7lbs of boost.

Just seems odd. Why tell us you're "currently" building a car you already built? Lying is bad.

Literally an oversite when posting it. It was copied over from another forum.

A good thing to add on your list is a new SFI balancer.The stock ones wobble and get worse with a blower pulling on them.

You were talking in present tense as if the project was underway while answering questions on this post, so it was not an oversite. But I digress...

We would love to help you out with parts and services or both. The cost for these kits is car specific so the best way to go about this is to send me an email with what your looking to do and some background on what has already been done to the car and I will set you up with what you need in order to meet the expectations you have the build. We would love to work with you on any project regardless of size so feel free to give us a shout or drop us an email. We are here to help you guys/girls out.

We were able to see a horsepower increase of 234.76hp and an increase in torque of 160.58 ft/lbs. With horsepower and torque increase like this you would probably expect to loose a lot of drivability. The guys at A&A were able to create a kit that allows the car to produce these kinds of number and be very mannerly until you jumped on the throttle. Once you hammer down on the gas the car starts making huge power and screams like a kid that just had a butt woopin' in Wal-Mart. Another contributing factor to the great street manners was the Mcleod RST clutch we installed in this car to take all the power. Even being a twin disc 800hp clutch it has a lighter than stock pedal feel and will take all this car can throw at it. Keeping this beast all strapped together was a set of HINSON Motorsports engine and transmission mounts. Our interlocking stainless steel design, combined with a special blend of poly urethane helps keep the engine and transmission strapped in tight to ensure better shifts and less vibration. All in all the A&A kit went on pretty smooth and is a pretty quick way to achieve some serious power increases, and still be capable of being a daily driven Corvette.

If you are interested in any of these parts or having us build a car for you, please visit www.hinsonmotorsports.com or give us a call 205-909-9402.
