i have a 2008 C6 that makes 430 rear wheel HP. I have had a cam installed headers cold air intake and npp exhaust. Looking to bump it up to 650 - 700 rear wheel horsepower but got a budget of $3300
any recommendations

For only a few dollars, you can change a water brake dyno that uses the old SAE J607 standard to read whatever results you wish and you won't have to change a thing on your car. You can even come close to your HP goal for the price of a really hot cup of coffee.
Real power costs real money and $3300 isn't enough.

Lower your HP goals or increase your budget. You'll need to go FI, and address a few other things along the way. Can save some money if you find a used kit... https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...ast-parts.html

for that budget I would guess a set of ported CNC'd heads and a 200 shot of the sauce would get you there oh and a great tune

Yep, 800hp+ on a LS3 is easy to do with FI, but the real price tag is upgrading the drive line to hold the power instead.

I hear some places are financing super chargers put some money as a down payment and use the rest for the install. This alone may not reach your goals but will be a good start.
