Default How to get 500 WHP from C6 07?

Hi Guys,

I am new here and I have a friend who wants to mod his 07 LS2 C6 to 500 Whp. He already has Headers, exhaust, intake, thermostat. What other parts would you recommend to achieve at least 490-500 RWHP?

Also please educate me on modding vets as I wana help my friends, they always ask me about Vette's but i have more experience in German cars. Thanks a lot and looking forward to learning a lot while im on here

The simplest/cheapest way would be to go forced induction, although supercharged Corvettes usually end up making 550 - 600WHP on base kits.
You can do it with heads and a cam, but an LS2 500WHP N/A vette is a pretty radical build; there will be lope at idle, the car will shake at stoplights and you will feel cam surge as the car bucks at low speeds... I'd much rather go FI since the price is about the same.

Thanks for the reply Bro. What FI kits would you recommend for our hot and humid weather?

Supercharger is going to allow you to go past those goals, and still have near stock like drive ability.

There are a lot of options for blowers, procharger, Vortech/ A&A , Paxton/ECS

But for 5000 dollars you can get a great supercharger kit.

Feel free to call us if you would like to discuss our Paxton supercharger kit. 500rwhp would be a very conservative build. 609-752-0321
