Tvs 2300
I am going to go FI this fall and would like to use the tvs 2300. Do they make a kit for the C5 corvette? I know they do for the new camaro. Cant find anything C5 specific.

I don't believe they do a C5 kit. If you are 346 don't need that big anyway. Just go with a 112 or 122

Contact them. I saw at least one other person posting about installing a TVS2300 kit on his C5. I think the kit is in rough form (he had to tweak some things). The eaton 1900/2300 blowers are a lot better than their previous models. They're almost pushing 800rwhp on pump gas with the 2300 on the ZR1.

BowtieBubba - There is a part number for the 2300 on a C5. They are working on the fuel rails now, and they should have a kit read to ship in about three weeks. Keep in mind that the Magnuson will require a new hood.
Edelbrock is releasing roots style superchargers that do fit under the stock hood. They have it for the C6 and are working on the C5 kit now. Unfortunately, they don't have an ETA on the C5 kit, but it could be ready by Fall.
We carry both Magnuson and Edelbrock, so we can get you a great price either way. Give us a call for pricing and any questions that you may have. Thanks!

If plans include going to a 4" bore and FI specific cam, you could always bolt on a set of LS3 heads and do the Edelbrock for the C6. The heads are inexpensive so the additional cost isn't that big a deal.

I installed the 2300 on my C5. It is the only one that I know of with this unit. There were some issues with the install. About halfway through I was told that they should not have sold it to me and they it was not being made for the C5. We resolved the issues and I have been really happy with the results. 540 RWP at 9.5 PSI with meth injection. Search tvs 2300 in the title and you will see my post.

I just ordered my TVS 2300 for my C5. I am installing a forged LS7 and the TVS on top of that. I will run low boost for break in and probably get up to 15lbs after that.
I will have to modify my RK Sport hood a little, but no big issues. I will take pictures of the build, it will not be very exciting, I am hoping for 550 RWHP
