OK...seriously Brian, that guy needs to shut his face!
I was half hoping that the corvette would blow up on his face! Great numbers on a great car but does the guy want a medal of honor for his speech?

He reminds me of a guy at one of the hack jobs shop that my truck's been to, maybe that's why he bugs me...

Yeah I know!
Sounds like the Avon Lady trying to push a line a projects by somebodies nose!
Great numbers on that car though,
Figure 505 stock crank hp + 7.5lbs boost = 800 crank hp - %10 drivetrain loss = 725ish rwhp.
Those are some great gains with the TVS!
