I'm about 3 months into my ownership of a Corvette C7. I'm not one to leave things along so the mods list has been growing pretty quickly:

Engine:
Procharger P1SC Kit (fitted by me)
Alkycontrol Methanol injection
MSD Airforce Intake Manifold
Zeitronix Wideband
HP Tuners tuning suite
Borla X-Pipe secondary cat delete

Exterior:
Show'n'Go motorised front number plate
Genuine Z06 front grille
Highly metallic wheel refurb + red pinstripe
Oracle LED Side marker lights
Carbon Flash emblems
Toyo R888R semi-slick tyres

Thanks guys. I need to get some good pics of it, but I can't find anywhere interesting nearby.

Get a video up of it running, and the charger howling...

Out of interest OP, is there a benefit to the supercharger kit you installed rather than getting a ZO6 in the first place?

They absolutely nailed the look of the C7 IMO and this is a tastefully done example. Great stuff.

About £10-15k left in your pocket and an extra 100hp smile

Not to mention a car that doesn't overheat as much (Z06 do this baaad) and a higher top speed without all the Z06 aero

Not yet. Getting it tuned next week (remotely by a guy in the states!) then off to a rolling road for some figures. I'm shooting for 750hp.

I had one on my Mustang (zip ties showing in this vid as it was a test fit)...

Will do. I've just bought a couple of GoPro's and some suction mounts, so hope I can get a couple of good videos sorted providing the police don't harass me smile
