Default corvette bye bye!

I just finished installing my supercharger for my mach 1 (procharger)and i took it out for a spin and the thing rocks!!!!.I was out for about 2 hours just cruising for someone to race and i finally found one guy in a brand new 2004 vette.I saw him in the walmart parking lot and i pulled next to him as he got into his car.

I told him that that p.o.s was a waste of money!He told me it wold kick my sorry *** all over the place.For the record i dont think vettes are a waste i was just trying to bait the guy.so i told the guy to follow me a i took him about 2-3 miles down the road to an housing complex that was under construction.Theres a 1 mile road that runs into a big loop at the end of the housing complex.All there is on either side of the road is simi built houses and construction equipment.

Anyways we line up and he rolls he window down and asks if im running nos i told him no and thats all he wanted to know and off we went.I punched it and all you could hear was tires screaming i back off a little to get some tracking and away i went.I left him so fast i thought he was going backwards.Afterwards the guy pulled up next to me and said i was full of crap and the i had nos.I told him no nos just a charger and i did a burnout leaving.

I cant wait to get this thing to the track and see what kinda of times i can run.The tires i was running were 45f1's front and 55f1's rear.

haha that poor guy. You're such an ***.

How much was your procharger and did you bother tuning it before you took it for a run?

Well my kit for the mach 1 came with a charger and a intercooler as two seperate units.As for how much it cost i used superchargers for less and got it and the fuel injectors for about 4k after all was said and done.I havnt had it tuned yet.

It would be a real good idea to have'er tuned ASAP. If ya keep doing that, that Corvette will pass you when you hear pistons blowing through your oil pan.

ORIGINAL: Tango 1

I am not a trader but I would have to be thier to belive it .

A superchargered mach 1 would murder a vette just like it did in this story.

Ya, mostly any supercharged v8 will kill another stock n/a v8. It's pretty logical. Why call BS. Maybe he exagerated a lil, specially with the whole "yo, that thing got nawwz?" Other than that, I think it's legit.

You're right about the Vette not racing. I have NEVER seen a Vette street race. Most of the guys with them are in their mid 40's.
