I have a Hybrid kit between the 2 versions. I have HO intercoolers and charge piping but Stage 2 cradle. Most of the pipes I left but my tuner did custom fab/modify some pipes mainly for more ground clearance. We are going to redo the Intake to the Blower and section from engine into a LS3 maf/first Y tube closer to stage 2 style but better. In the future I may do single intercooler.

It is a Procharger P1sc with 3.85 pulley. It is also an A&A corvette bracket but the first version which really isn't around anymore.

If you have the older HO kit i would try to change intake to over the radiator if possible without cradle and get an A&A bracket in link below

Check this forum and ls1tech etc for used A&A brackets for the people going to a flip drive or direct drive etc.

What year Z06 and what are your mods planned besides the blower? You will need atleast a lingenfelter/Racetronix Fuel bump if you have 2001-early 2003 Z06 and or a Boost a Pump. If you have a newer 2003-2004 there is another option as well. 60lb injectors are recommended.

Hope this helps!

Should be on the road in a day or so!

Got trans rebuilt with new mainshaft and brace installed. Got it all up into the car.

Still need to touch a few things up in front and install halfshafts and calipers.

Installed trans/ halfshafts/ rear section and drove the car over over to the lift to install exhaust

Another clip of it at idle

Crazy how quiet the XSP catback with cats is at idle and cruise and how loud it gets under WOT. I love it!

More vids soon.

Finishing the gauges and some charge pipes with ls3 style maf =) should be ready to drive sat/sun. I am heading down to the NCM bash weds this week with dad and his C5
