Default Just another Blown C5 [Video]



http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yx-dSMbTbFs


At 18 I watched a video on youtube, probably the sickest car I had ever seen in my life.. a c5 with some brand of blower I can't remember, but ever since that day my life had changed forever. I honestly had no idea how I was gonna do it, but it's finally done (minus the top and raido I have to still install this week) only took me 3 years to get it all pieced together. I don't think I'll ever be happy driving another car lol its only making 555whp, but man I tell ya this monster makes me feel like I'm flying every time I punch it. although I'm already looking at an 8 Rib upgrade I'm hoping for atleast the next couple of months I wont get the feeling for more haha. Well I just thought I'd share this with you guys. Thanks for watching

-Aaron
