I know a great guy that has the connections with Magnusen and would be able to supercharge your vette and do anything else that you want to do as well. He helps me out with all my stuff.

Not sure of any good shops in Bakersfield to achieve that much hp, you're better off calling Andy at A&A Corvette out of LA to get some trick work done.
