2003 Z06 Corvette
The owner of this vehicle came to us wanting to make more power. He didn’t want just a simple bolt on supercharger, he wanted to upgrade the entire engine so that it could handle the boost we were hoping to make. A plan was made and the goal was 500hp to the wheels. Custom Diamond pistons, K1 Tech rods, a camshaft and valve train from Comp and most importantly a Magnuson supercharger was ordered. The engine was assembled and built to run 12-14 lbs. of boost. At that level the car made 505hp and 540 ft. lbs of torque to the tire! The best part is that it is an extremely reliable and streetable combination. Could you probably make this much power with a stock bottom end? Honestly, you probably could, but an engine is only as good as its weakest parts. That is what makes this combination so great, it is fast and powerful but also streetable and bulletproof! No worries about melting pistons, breaking ring lands etc. Just hit the key and go!
