When it comes to taking your Chevrolet C6 Corvette Z06 to the next level you have quite a few options; one of which is forced induction. If this is a route you’re considering, then check out this twin turbocharger kit offered by UPP Turbo Systems. With a price range of $9,999 to $11,599, it’ll support anywhere from a loony 700 to 1,100 wheel horsepower.
Twin turbocharged V8 engines are known for crushing the competition at the strip, but how streetable are they? How affordable are they? Are they worth it? The answers to these questions are highly dependent on what the vehicle is being used for, and what preferences the driver has. In this case, we think a mid-level kit along with the $700 fuel system upgrade UPP offers is a reasonable purchase for under $12K.
Here’s a list of the components of the kit:
- 2x Stainless Steel Tubular Manifolds
