I'm going to disagree with you here. My C6 with H&C and a stalled 6L80 was more fun than my C5 because my butt hole didn't pucker with every launch... I'd also be hard pressed to call a C7Z humdrum....

I wouldn't know, I never kept a car that long, lol. I don't think I would every boost my car. Just too much money to dump into the driveline to keep up. I'd move on to a C6 or C7 first.

Thanks. I heard that a lot about the Ti exhaust which is why I'm sold on the sport. I had an MGW in my camaro and loved it so that is probably my next mod. I have been looking at the LS7 clutch just...

Car's been great but I haven't driven it much. I maybe put 1500-2k miles on it since I had the cats installed. I'm completely happy with making the decision of installing the cats and still want to...

This is all correct. With any higher lift cam the torque curve is moved higher in the rev range. My car would greatly benefit from a 3.90 gear or MN12 trans ratio to counter that but it doesn't...

C4 may have been futuristic in 1984 but it far from a modern corvette. It rides like a dump truck and is still front weight biased. Seeing as the same general chassis design was used from 1997-2019,...

My opinion is if you want a fund 600-700who street car then a supercharger is the way to go. It's easier to install and cheaper.

If you want 1000+, go turbo. Huron Speed makes a really nice kit.
