Default Supercharger Options

My Z51 2014 is paid off. I like my car but always wanted a supercharged car - never had one. Have had fast cars of various models all my life. Reading Corvette magazine since 2014 many folks have added different supercharges. I am not interested in doing the work myself. Lingenfelter has a $10,000 option that might work for me with a three year warranty. I know I am in the minority but I simply do not like the "fat" look of the Z06. I want to keep what I have and just add a supercharger.

Questions:

1. Those that have done business with Lingenfelter. Were you happy?

2. If you did buy a Lingenfelter package and warranty issues came up did they take car of it.

Thanks for any feedback.

If I were in your position, the only option for me would be an A&A kit from Andy.

There are a lot of different supercharger options out there. We offer the LT4 Supercharger conversions installed for $7999, they produce a little more hp/tq than the Z06, and are very upgradable. We just finished two of these kits last week.

Your web-site shows this kit for Z51 and Grand Sport. Do you have a kit for the base Stingray?

Correct we have not done a wet sump LT1 yet. I do have a product list of what we need, and we can offer that kit installed in house for the same price as the dry sump that we would charge for a dry sump car. Stage 1 (600hp) $5999 installed/tuned. Stage 2 (700hp) $7999 installed/tuned.

Mine was about $7k installed with meth at A&A and have been very happy with the car. There are a lot of great vendors here that do awesome work, just make sure you pick someone reputable that has worked on a C7 before.

This. I was under 6k installed and tuned A&A kit with the 4.0 pulley(about 7.5 pounds of boost). I also have long tube headers from TSP and no cats. I figure I am right about 570-600 RWHP. Car is an absolute blast to drive.

I use to say my car has "supercar handling, supercar breaking, supercar looks, but it was not supercar fast" Well, now its supercar fast too.

On a side note, things I can do in my Chevy Cruze that I cant do in my Supercharged C7... floor it for 3 seconds on the highway and not get arrested!


In short, you cant go wrong with A&A!
