bragging rights
went to a local show, was a maggied c5 there. I asked what power level he was at. Guy told me 650,,,,but he can get 750 RWHP if he uses the alky and leaves the boost turned up... stock motor with headers...
I looked over the car.....he didnt have alky injection...lol
but he did have a boost gage. also have stock pulley....he told me he turned it down to 8 psi....
I think he peed his pants when I told him that I had a maggied car....and he is fill of poo....
he did have the hood seal and supercharged emblems.....

Any pics of his so called heavy RWHP Maggied Vette? 
I have had a few different Vette owners do the same thing and usually I ask if they have a Dyno sheet near by so I can look over the TQ and HP curve - Duhhhh Uhmmmmm Ohhhh Ahhhhh sure let me see if I even have it today!
Well mine is over there with it posted in the window
Works each and every time
Thanks,Matt

I let him talk,,,,, he can have his fun....too bad he was braggin to a fellow maggie owner who knows his BS....
He should save it for the c4 guys..
rust me, this isnt the nly time I hear the BS at shows.....I like the " I know a guy who knows a guy who has the baddest ________ that will put teh smack down on anyone who tries. But,,,,,you never seem to meet the guy.
I use my DTE dyno sheet for shows,,,, but I also have a fake sheet for the suckers......its from a pro mod car and the dyno cant read all the HP....and some believe it. All for fun..

Ran into a dkweed like that. Tried to tell me his "full street dress" C5 coupe weighed in at 2200 lbs and ran 10 sec 1/4 mi. Because "he modified everything". omg.. what an idiot. The wiring along weighs almost that much.. so what did he do??? drill holes in the wiring too?
