New Guy in Maryland
Hello everyone
As a youngster I have always admired Corvettes. I purchased my first Corvette brand new in April 2012. I originally wanted a C6 Z06; however I wanted to be able to remove the top more than I wanted the additional HP at the time. I figured that I could supercharge my Vette later for additional power. No plans to track at all. So I purchased a 2012 C6 3LT Inferno Orange GS. It's a 6M with black interior. I absolutely LOVE this car. Not a DD so it’s only out of the garage on beautiful sunny days!!
Back in 2012 everything was going well when all of a sudden THE C7 EMERGED!!!! This really through a monkey wrench in the program for me because I was now torn on if I should supercharge my GS or go C7. I LOVE THE INTERIOR OF THE C7!! However, I'm still partial to the exterior of the C6. So I decided to supercharge my GS. Besides.. it’s still new with only 9K miles on the clock!!
With LOTS of help from the forum, I felt comfortable enough to move forward with the project. So in Nov 2015 I sent my GS to Lingenfelter and went with a Magnuson Heart Beat. The car was returned to me on 13 Jan 2016 and it's a BEAST!!!! I have to learn how to drive this thing all over again!! It's pretty cold here in Maryland this time of year so I have not really had an opportunity to take her out much. But spring is just around the corner!!
I’m looking forward to participating in the forum.
Thanks!!
