Default Question from the C6 side.

Have been trying to decide on mods for my C6. Supercharger (Pro-charger--Maggie---Kenny Bell) or Twin-Turbo or Heads and Cam. If some of you have these mods and have alot of miles on your car how has the reliability been. My main concern is to have 500+ hp. and still have reliability. Thank you for your help. By the way I used to have a 99 Pewter C5 that I dearly loved. It had 55,000 trouble free miles. ALL VETTES RULE!!!!!!!

A friend of mine has an ATI on his wife's C5. Not the only mod either. It's a daily driver and she loves it.

Hey, that reminds me. I forgot about the STS TT too. Something else to consider.

I have a Magnuson with over 500 rwhp. When I bought it almost 4 years ago, it was exactly what I wanted. Today, if I were starting over, I'd get the APS TT kit without a second thought.
