Magnacharger makes some of the most simple, effective and reliable blower kits on the market.

FPS, I'll shoot you over a price for the A&A kit next week. Waiting on my vendor to return my email.

I went with a Maggie on my C6. went to a 2.9 pulley with 9 1/2 lbs of boost. 536 rwhp on a safe tune. They had 569 @ 6,000 rpm but it ran bad lean. It took about a day to install it in my garage. Tune that came with the kit only put down 448 at the wheels.

nice looking vette Z51, and nice numbers.

Jon, get it done.

you guys have a great skill center compared to this crap we have on gordon. about half as many bays, rates are higher, the lift bays they have arent the drive on type. and I asked to borrow a crows foot and they looked at me like I had a snake coming out of my neck. "what is a crows foot?"
