Edelbrock E-Force Supercharger
This one goes on the C6. Why the hell can't anyone make something like this for the C5?

this is cool, but still just a 2300, there is a few on the market comprable.
Also if you are going to S/C a forged motor would let you go a lot further, 6lbs pounds of boost is cool, but once you get 6 you will want 10 - 12 +++ then you will need a forged motor anyway

I just want something to make the C5 a little funner than it already is, and will look 
under the hood like the ZR1 unit does.I'd never even dream of going to more than the stock boost levels....I promise

Now a year or two later wanting more, so if you are going to build, build big if you can.

Check with user C_Williams@RPM at RPM Motors. He's in the process of working through the installation details...
[Quote] I am doing one very soon on a C5 - I’ve mocked up the pieces and it’s straight forward, only minor fabrication. The hood has to be changed – but only by the slightest. A small rise 3/4”, like the RK SPORT, will more than clear (it only comes close at the very front, near the radiator “crown”.If you are local I can call you when it’s done.
Thanks,

I have installed this kit on an 06 mustang, and I can say from experience that it is the most complete kit with the best instructions I've ever seen. my girlfriend could install it. expensive, but worth the money. They even send you a programmer in the complete kit to do your own tune.

I will admit that to get it to work with an LS1/6 will cost $9000+ (heads + SC), but for that price, you get something that few other C5 owners have...
Power for dollar value is dimished, if that is the only thing that counts for you.
What is the price of exclusivity or uniqueness? Only you can decide that.
