Default The Stuf Vette

Still a work in progress but here she is...

I think she's looking pretty cool with her BASF (R-M) custom black and purple pearl paint with ghost flames by Bill Carter, ACI Body Parts, Weld EVO Wheels, BF Goodrich Tires, Billy Boat headers and exhaust, Baer rotors and SSBC calipers.

With the Magnuson intercooled supercharger installed dyno readings of max hp went from 297 @ 5250 rpm, to 485 @ 6000 rpm. Max torque went from 305 @ 4250 rpm, to 457 @ 3750 rpm. Runs perfectly, it's a great system running 7.5 lbs of boost. And other than headers and exhaust, it's a stock motor (so far...).

Needless to say, she's a kick to drive

This photo was taken for the BASF 2005 Paint calendar and she will also be at the SEMA show this Nov. in Vegas.
