Help please
I just bought my 1st C6 Corvette, LS2 2007. I was looking in the trunk and in the left trunk compartment I noticed a Kenny Bell boost pump, and then I opened the glove box and seen a Kenny Bell controller. My car came with a PSC1 procharger. Any help with these 2- items. Thanks Alan

K.B. boost a pump increasing the voltage to the fuel pump, thus increasing fuel flow while under boost. This prevents the engine from going lean at WOT. The boost a pump (BAP) works under boost when needed, without it your engine will lean out, detonate and go kaboom!

The car may also have larger injectors.
I would dyno the car or better yet street tune it. Just to make sure everything is ok and working together.
