Default Any supercharged Colorado Corvettes?

I'm debating whether I want to supercharge my C6 or keep it relatively stock. I'm looking to see if there are any local members with supercharged vettes that would not mind taking me for a spin and showing off their cars!

I appreciate your time and help!

I have a SC'd C5 and am in Parker if you ever want to get together to take a ride in it.

That would be great! I am in Arvada, so not far at all. The weather reports are saying next weekend should be in the 60s, so maybe I could take my vette out and meet you down in Parker.

This weekend coming up I'm questionable for. I'm waiting to receive my new headlight shrouds at the end of the week that I have to paint, mount and let the silicone cure for 24 hours.

Next weekend I believe there is a cars and coffee if weather permits at vehicle vault if you could meet then. Either way, shoot me a pm and we'll get together soon.

If you live close to Colorado Springs I can help you out if you wait about two weeks as my A&A kit was just ordered today.

I was wondering about the cars and coffee and was wondering if the average joe will be okay at this event.
I can also ask my buddy if he will be there with his 06 Super Charge Vette.

No, RMCR in Colorado Springs is doing it. I only hear great things about them and visited the shop and talked to one of the mechanics who does the install and tune and quickly came to the conclusion he knows his stuff. I left feeling really comfortable with picking them. They told me they have done 100's of A&A installs over the years.

Well Hell I will not be at the Vault for cars and coffee as it has snowed about ten inches in my neighborhood at 9,000 foot elevation.

Snowwolfe, would you mind letting me know your impressions on the kit after you get it installed? Also, a ride would be very appreciated!

Be glad to but it might be awhile. Called the shop yesterday and there was a delay in getting the kit delivered so the install is scheduled for 6 April and will most likely take a couple of days. But then I leave for a couple of weeks so the ride might not take place until the first week of May.
PM me your phone number and I'll give you a call when I return. Install went well and already put a couple hundred miles on the car with no check engine lights or any other issues. Thumbs up, feels like a new car. Stock, 368 HP at the rear wheels. After Supercharger, 570 HP. It could of been more but we decided to go with the 3:8 pulley instead of the 3:6 or 3:7 they usually use because my car will be driven a lot to lower elevations and I wanted to keep it pretty safe.
