Default ANDY@A&A is a trip! LOL

So Andy was passing through Vegas and we made plans for him to take my car back to CA when he was done. Well I call up the shop yesterday and talk to Josh , he tells me Andy has my car on the Dyno. I am like damn thats fast! He said its to get a base pull , he thinks something is wrong with your car. Andy said its feels extra slow ! I am like its stock?

Andy has only been driving S/C C7's and got to drive mine in 100* weather DA being 5000 +. Turns out the car made 419 on his dyno and the only thing wrong with my car is its missing a A&A kit

I told him coming from a 1000hp GTR and driving this car was . That is why i have been blowing up his phone for the last 3 months wanting to get this done!! now he knows why !!

C7's are nice but way way to slow from factory !


should be a fun car making 600@wheels!

I had my car in Andy's shop last month. Your getting the latest
kit. If you know Andy he works on the kit improving it non-stop!
It now has a device in the intake tube to futher stablize the air flow.

You will love it! I run no gauges no tells just open NPP!

Hilarious. Andy drove my Torch Red C7 back from Oxnard after the blower install (touch up) on his way to the airport to fly to Vegas to pick up your ride. Let me just say Andy is all about customer service & fast Corvettes. My car had a minor issue after the initial install and Andy came to my house in Burbank picked it up and then returned it to me at no extra charge. Dyno = 580 rwhp on 91 octane. The car rocks.

Had an A&A kit on my C6 and Andy is certainly top notch. If I go FI on this build it will be A&A again.

Hey man, glad to hear you're finally getting the S/C installed. I threw an Si Trim on my orange vette a few months ago and couldn't be happier with it as my DD. Ran it on DRs a few months ago at LVMS in ~3500 DA and went 10.72 @ 129 with a 1.56 60ft (shifting pretty easy). I'd imagine with skinnies and some winter air it could see 10.40s, but we shall see. I look forward to seeing yours run, hopefully we can have another 10 sec. manual vette in town.

I pulled the trigger yesterday on the AA kit for my Z51 (will be a local installation here in Sierra Vista Az)..

Most interested in feedback from others who already have installed in their C7...for example when do you start to feel this SC kick in given that its a centrifugal pump and their is latency associated with spinning it up to the required speed to flow that air? Is the lag more analagous to a Turbopump? I am also getting 1 7/8 ARH long tubes installed with ths setup...ordered and received prior to the decision to go with the AA SC...hope the long tubes arent a total waist of money when aligned with this S/C solution...
