Just tell them to go big or go home...

I'd like to see 500, 550, even 600 RWHP! :D

Sdftw!!!!!!

Engine bay cutting :eekdance: I was thinking the same thing on the oil cooler, I was considering installing one this last weekend, but figured they would want to test the car as is. There is no doubt that the supercharger will generate more heat, so looks like an oil cooler will be a must. We'll have to see. Thanks for the input :tup:

Great move on not adding an Oil cooler, let them figure it out :tup:

My guess is they'll only do 100 whp extra with the supercharger if they're doing CARB. I definitely would want one...

...then I think I could just spend all that money on a ton of track time, tires, and brakes. The problem with more power is that, if you use it as god intended (on the track), then you need brake upgrades, possibly more oil cooling, bigger wheels and tires, a new differential, yadda yadda... The smarter move would be to get a Z06, but then I'm not really into the 'vettes...

Decisions, decisions. I think ultimately more power matters less than track time, but I guess if you have a big enough budget, you can do both...

man if only Cali weren't involved in performance parts there would be no such thing as "waiting for CARB certification":stirthepot:

And without the California market and companies producing parts, there wouldn't be much for whiney midwesterners to buy. :hello:

Do you not watch tv? Lol Happy cows come from california.

LOL... Lotta hate for old CA.. It was at a time the 4th largest economy in the world, and is still larger than many industrialized powers..

How's that wine produced in Wisconsin? Enjoying the views overlooking the pacific? :bowrofl:

I want to move to Texas though now there is a good place to live. I think i'd want to be in the north eastern area of the state. Way better than Cali any day.

Yeah it's too bad performance companies don't base themselves out of the midwest because we aren't flooded with cheap illegal labor. I can settle for most of the major tool companies like snap-on, and a massive forging, casting, metalworking industry including Wiseco pistons, and more than a few OEM parts suppliers. Oh and almost a third of the entire nations beer producing facilities (Miller- the beer without rice in it that can still be called beer in Germany)

Dropped the Z off at Vortech yesterday, this will be the preliminary testing for fitment, etc. After that it will be determined if they will move forward with a production kit. Any questions, thoughts or suggestions would be great. :tup: keep voting on the pole, interest is definitely a deciding factor.

why would you want to move here? Texas's emission standards are almost as bad as Californias, and is required to be renewed annually, shitty. And you think California is full of illegal labor? :rofl2:

Thanks for the update. I would be quite sad if they dont follow through. Vortech is a very good company and i would easily sport one of their blowers.

When did the state add the annual emissions cert? Is it state wide or a local ordinance but there are a couple of counties here in Wisconsin that require it too i just don't live in one of those. If that's state wide i may have to go to the backups of Arizona/Nevada or Montana. Gonna have to look that up.

Although being able to shoot someone stealing things on your property would still be sweet.
