I have Dyno tuning, aftermarket 3" Flowmaster dual exhaust, and a Vararam intake on my Corvette. It gained a LOT more than 30 hp over the "factory" setup. My car has over the factory rating of 430hp at the REAR WHEELS. About 475-490 at the flywheel, depending on the fuel. Has a lot more torque than the Ford 5.0 due to 6.2L displacement, and about 700lbs less weight.
A lot of the reason why Corvettes always beat the so-called pony-cars is they have far fewer compromises in materials. They are far better weight-optimized.

Yes, there is such a thing as NORMAL
, if you have to ask what is "NORMAL" , you probably aren't !

Failure may not be an OPTION, but it is ALWAYS a POSSIBILITY.
ALL systems are GO for MAYHEM, CHAOS, and HAVOC !
