A&A Vortech Superchargers!-$6599.99 INSTALLED!

This is a Dyno sheet of a BONE Stock C5 Before and After



The A&A Supercharger kit brings you dramatic increases in power while not degrading everyday drivability or highway gas mileage! The system utilizes a large blow off valve that remains open at cruise and light throttle. This, essentially, allows the supercharger to “freewheel” under normal conditions, reducing parasitic loss to less than that of an alternator.

A naturally aspirated engine would require higher compression, a very aggressive camshaft, high flow cylinder heads with heavy duty valvetrain, exhaust headers with free flowing exhaust, larger throttle body, high flow intake manifold, free flowing air filter housing and duct, etc. Most of these parts are NOT emissions legal. The price of these components alone is higher than a supercharger system. The labor to install these is also much higher. Then there are the inherent problems brought to the vehicle by such a build. A large camshaft all but ruins everyday drivability AND gas mileage. Driving in traffic becomes a very trying experience. A stick shift car will buck and surge and an automatic car will be hard to hold back because of the increased idle speed required. Low speed torque is reduced with an aggressive camshaft which will require lower differential gearing and a high speed stall torque converter (automatic cars) to make up for it. This further degrades drivability and gas mileage. With all the components required for a high performance naturally aspirated car, the degradation in drivability and gas mileage, the total inability of the vehicle to pass emissions tests and the added expenditure, the vehicle would STILL have up to 100HP less than a stock Corvette with one of our standard systems bolted on.

Average increase TO THE REAR WHEELS is approximately 175 RWHP! No other modification, in this price range, even comes close.

A&A Corvette Performance manufactures top quality supercharger systems exclusively for C5 (1997- 2004) and C6 (2005- 2010) Corvettes including Z06.

Our systems have evolved into the most efficient and cost effective superchargers available today.

Great deal and on my wish list. Do you know how HCs change when it comes to the smog test? Are the fuel injectors changed?

Mike blew me last December and I still can't get the Big Ole' Grin off my face. I try not to use it too much, but hey, that's why they sell back tires. Right?!

Why mess with cams, heads, and long tube headers when you can get emissions legal performance with a Supercharger! Adding a supercharger over a big cam also will help retain the drivability of your car
