2005 C6 Corvette
APS Twin Intercooled Twin Turbo
700 HP

This is my 2005 C6 Corvette. It is a Z51 package car with factory upgraded brakes, suspension, and gears. The car is fully loaded with every factory option including navigation, and XM radio. The car has a few mods, including the APS Twin Turbo package, which includes twin Garrett 500HP ball bearing turbos. It dynoed at 604 RWHP and 620 RWTQ on the stock diameter exhaust and only 10.5 psi of boost. A new, APS 3" true dual exhaust is coming soon. This is my first Vette, my last car was a heavily modified Subaru WRX... (see it on page 2)

Great looking Vette you have there. I have a Vette forum and Corvette Gallery you get the chance go to www.smokinvette.com and upload a few photos. My guest would love to view custom work like this.

Nice Vette!! I like the rims, subs, amps, custom box, and the factory navi system, sweet!! Even like your mazda 6 too, my friend has a 2006 mazda 6 with a V6 I think a 3.0 engine with 5-speed, and bose system, he done some things to it so far. How does your bose system sound? Keep me posted for pics! Check out my ride and vote!!
