Default Hello C6 community

Hello all.

Frank here is SWFL and brand new to the Corvette owner group. I just bought my first car. It's a stock 06 with a new freshly rebuilt stock engine. I plan on supercharging this LS2. Would love any input on what to do and order of operations. I would like to drive this car and start upgrading everything from the engine back before doing the engine work. So any suggestions such as rear-ended, torq tube, trans ,gears, breaks, away bars, ECT. I just want to be ready when I upgrade the powerplant and I'm green as green could be. I'm not looking for a drag car just as much power as I can make without a complete rebuild. Bolt on parts and cam.

Thank you all in advance and can't wait to start on my new journey in the topless Corvette world here in sunny Florida.

Welcome, Frank, and congratulations on your new Corvette. Outstanding! There is a sub-section in the C6 section for forced induction where you may find a significant number of your questions answered. If you look up some posts by a gentleman in Arizona with the handle DrKrieger, you may find his build of, I believe an 07, both interesting and informative. He has a stunningly beautiful supercharged Corvette, though it is built off of a 427. And he is just one that I’ve noticed; there are many with supercharged cars. Best of luck in your journey and send some pictures our way!
