Exclamation Vortech Supercharged C6 With VIDEO!!

We completed another supercharger install here at the shop and thought we would share some pics and a little video for your viewing pleasure! This particular one is a SUPER clean '07 LS2 Corvette A6. The kit was supllied by the owner and its one that we had yet to try so we were anxious to see what kind of power numbers it would put down. The head unit itself is fairly similar in CFM/RPM to a Procharger P-1SC but the intercooler core is a little bit smaller than those of the Procharger kit. Overall, the results are not bad for 6lbs of boost on an automatic car in this heat! The existing mods on the car were a small camshaft (220/226) and headers with cats.

572.44 rwhp
496.72 lb/ft


We will be installing a smaller pulley on the supercharger next week and doing some more tuning so I will let you guys know the results then

Here's a few pics of this fine ride. Enjoy!

Thanks for the great work! Major props to Mike, Steve and Alex for an outstanding job. Compared to similar equipped C6's, the numbers are great for an A&A kit. My goal is 600whp and I have no doubts we will exceed that with the added boost from the 3.6 pulley that is going on.

I see you are in Austin. I know Houston is a little drive for you but you need to give Mike at Icon a call. He will take care of you on the install.

Will do Billy. The car has a new tranny. The stocker was replaced due to the TSB. We'll see how long she lasts. BTW, I vouched for you on those LS2 heads you recently sold. Too bad they didn't solve my buddy's issue.
