Knowing RKreigh, I did not miss a thing...

"The Guy", RKreigh is a friend of mine, he wants a turbo Corvette and has always liked B2K's - I can see where Ron's boost craving history may have been overlooked - it isn't in the tread and you may not know his strong affection for boost.
Ron did not say he was in search of more power w/ a B2K than his 505 hp car - after all, it has proven itself "sufficient"...
Ron has told me on many times though he would like to buy a B2K and have some fun
Also knowing Ron, He would explore the outer limits of the car if he bought it, maybe looking for alternate turbo's for it -
Enjoy

The turbos on Callaways are rotomaster designs about the size of t3's. On a 350 cu motor the air flow is maxed past 5000 rpm.
being that youre new here you might wanna do some research before spouting "facts." here is a bit of info.....
There is a guy on this board who made 601rwhp with Rotomaster turbos and a compressor wheel change.
And...
There is another former member of this board who revs to 6k with aftermarket base and runners.....and it pulls to it.

Just a bit of advice...if you dont' want to start a little online fight...you might want to reconsider how you talk to people. The condesending know-it-all attitude won't get you very far around here.
First you said a modded b2k won't make more than 550rwhp...then you come back and say it won't make more than the 505rwhp that Rkreigh's ZR1 put down. Which is it? 50rwhp is a pretty big swing in my opinon. FWIW Callaway built a car with the same turbos that laid down 500rwhp and did so with 6.7:1 compression, due to Englands gas quality. Im pretty sure a 8.5 or 9:1 would make considerably more hp
I know of someone running a miniram with 16 injectors...turbocat from CAC. It all makes sense now.
