What else do you have in your vette? Get a custom cam, port your heads, gears and a tune.

Hmmm....horsepower sounds low in my opinion. There are guys getting that with heads and cam, including myself. 500hp with a supercharger is actually slower than a 500hp n/a car. Something is not right. Seek out some of the gurus on this site. I don't know a lot about those superchargers myself.
