^^Jimmy I'm probably at 250ish right now give or take, once I add on the other stuff I'll probably be up near 300. It's basically the most I can do without nitrous and without switching to a tvs or turbo.

haha I'm not, that's why I'm getting some more goodies. I'd love to be able to break into the 11's with my car but I really think the only way that's happening is with the TVS or turbo like I said.

For comparison, a stock C6 vette and C5 Z06 do the 1/4 mile in 12.4. The new Z06 does it in 11.5. And a stock C5 vette does the 1/4 in "just" 13.1-13.3

My goal is to be able to at least hang with or maybe even beat a stock C5.

Yea but I dunno how reliable twincharge is. It's an awesome concept but I think for the money I'd probably just get a Harrop and if I still wanted more power (never enough), I'd just do a turbo swap.

But you know me and superchargers haha. And I'd kinda rather do the tvs because it's a way WAY easier install/swap than a whole turbo kit is. I'm starting to research the harrop now. Maybe a little christmas/new year's/first birthday gift to my car....

i like the tvs and all but twincharge is good powerband.....i also like the turbo swap but too much for the hahn kit......twincharge is reliable as long as you got good cooling mods for the supercharger and you get a turbo timer cuase my friend just blew up his turbo by not having a turbo timer.......im def going twincharge i like that and add an intercooler spray to that whole mix and you will be in 500 hp

haha too bad you're doing it so soon because if you wanted to wait another few months, maybe I'd have a tvs and we could install our supercharges together haha

If they're selling it used for $2100, I might as well just spend the extra $150 and get it brand new. Good lookin out though man

Car update... Stopped by on my way home and they said all the parts are in and they're currently painting them and then they'll start installing all on the car. Said it should be done by next Friday (12th) if not sooner. I'll be in San Diego til the 14th, but I cant ******* wait to get back and drive the hell out of her. After an oil change of course.
