So here’s the story, I work at a chevy dealership in Scotia and the GM (general manager) decided instead of getting the ZR1 he’d take this brand new $80k Corvette Z06 with single digits on the odometer to Redline Motorsports in Rotterdam and have them stick 2 turbochargers in it. It puts out more HP than the soon-to-be ZR1 without any internal mods to the engine. It’s pretty sick. Here are my pics of it: [http://gallery.me.com/kgerrity#100070](http://gallery.me.com/kgerrity#100070)

Yup and it runs like dick compared to how it should run. Car is way to rich and won’t launch proper because his whack ass tune. It’s getting a new tune this winter/spring and some other goodies so it will run like it should

I remember hearing or reading something that Redline was going to be making special editions for Salisbury a while ago.

if i had the money to spend on a new zo6 i think i may have just saved a little more and went with the zr1 rather then a twin turbo kit that could blow my shit up…also in the pictures are then #'s in the 4xx’s range…i cant tell…if thats that case…thats pretty weak… because tony’s car makes way more then that for 1/2 the price of a turbo…just my .02
