warp speed for the new princess

i've just been seduced out of C3s into the dark side, fell like a mad fool for a low mile (-27K) C4 left aslumber perhaps by the proverbial little old lady (from Bowling Green?);

i seem to have come across someone who makes a decent intake manifold (see X-Ram.com if you're interested) but now i'd like to turbocharge or supercharge it into a back alley Grand Sport since i lack the capability to widen it into a ZR-1 (which is okeh, because the insurance company of the wildwoman who tore across a lawn and through an intersection to wreck my C3 will be buying me one, right after they pay my lawyer's ransom);

i'm open to recommendation, and feel free to respond directly to my email if you wish;

thank you;

dreameagle

SORRY FOR THE CONFUSION

surely you must know it not my attempt to conduct a free advertising campaign for anyone or any product;

i only meant to note it as some i have read post products from a certain racing catalogue i believe is based in Ohio whose name is the opposite base, as in the foot of a mountain...

now i'll make it simpler for those of an engineering mind;

1984 low mile C4 Corvette

crossfire fuel injection

pls fwd recommendations for

a) supercharging systems, and/or

b) turbocharging systems;


thank you;

For supercharging... search for Joby. Nice C4 with xfire and supercharger.

Turbocharging, pretty much the same.. both power adders would benefit from a ECM change to a 749 and Typhoon ($58) code.

Or you can go with a FMU.
