From the 1st time I matted it in 1st gear I was unimpressed. Next thing I know I see a brand new C6 with dealer tags on it and this guy is like lets take out this Vette. That Vette spanked this cars but from a 10 mph roll.

A friend of mine has an 03 Cobra with 520 hp, stage 4 ported Eaton. I love the instant power of boost right away, there is no substitute for it in my opinion.

With my auto a new Kenne Bell is the only thing I thought about putting on it. The auto has enough lag on the bottom end to where I think personally I would feel bored with a centri, I want torque and I want it now.
JC's 03 is BAD!!! It is running around 17-19psi as soon as he is stepping on the gas...and now that it's been cold out out, he told me it's been in the 19psi range more often.

I love my Vortech HO S/C, but can honestly say that if I were to start all over again TODAY, I would be installing the Whipple on my car.
