Shop tells me it's a freak. On his mustang dyno says normally 540-550. I made 574 with conservative tuning (AFR 11.2-11.3 at only 12 degrees of timing). Max power is at redline so it builds all the way to the top...

It's 9psi intercooled and an ECS Novi 1500 supercharger kit.

Supercharged the Corvette...

For the car savvy: put down on a Mustang Dyno (reads lower than Dynojet typically) 574.2RWHP / 532.2 RWTQ
For the non-savvy: basically 700 horsepower and 650 pounds of torque

I'll put pics up later in the week once I get the car back...

These photos are from the installer and tuner.
 

It looks very cool man.  Congrats!

here we go took it for a nice sunday morning drive....this is probably the most ridiculous car I've driven and I love the fact that it sits in my garage.  Friend and I took turns rowing the gears this morning.

(Oh god, that image quality looks awful. That's the last time I upload directly from a smartphone!)

The TM HOTAS Warthog throttle there isn't the new purchase in question, I've had that for a while now.

But as good as of a product as it is, it's still nothing compared to some genuine mil-spec hardware. I just need to wire that surplus A-10 throttle to a USB joystick board, build an enclosure for it, and I'm good to go.

Very cool!  Do you have to drive across multiple states to get it serviced?  I know that's a common problem with a lot of small production imports.

I think I finally am coming to a conclusion and am going to be ordering an iPhone 6 (not 6+) in White Silver tomorrow. I have T-Mobile as a carrier and will probably end up ordering directly from their mobile support hotline which offers a 20-day satisfaction and no re-stocking fees. It would give me time to decide if I like it enough to keep it or if the Note 4 from Samsung would be a better option (I've already tried it and it is quite nice). My main concern is battery life. I despise my current phone because it hits 15% five hours after a full charge. I ended up missing a very important call recently because of my phone dying on me early in the day and I don't wish to repeat that incident again.
 

 
Not sure which version to pick though. Might just stretch out for the 64GB version. I did find a case I'd like for it though. :)
 

 
So there you have it. Can't wait!
