Supercharged 2006 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible For SaleThis 2006
Chevrolet Corvette Convertible is a purpose-built C6 centered
around forced induction, nitrous, and supporting systems done the
right way. Power starts with the 6.0L LS V8 backed by a 6-speed
manual transmission and a fully built bottom end, using Callies
Compstar crankshaft, rods, pistons, and upgraded main and rod
bearings. The valvetrain has been addressed with a BTR camshaft kit
and bronze trunnion upgrade, along with ARP fasteners and a
high-volume oil pump to support sustained high-output use.Induction
is handled by a ProCharger Stage 2 D1X tuner kit paired with an ATI
dampener, feeding through a Nick Williams Boosted E throttle body
and a BTR NX direct-port intake manifold. Fuel delivery is equally
serious, featuring a custom C6 Li fuel system with 775cc (74lb)
injectors, extensive AN plumbing throughout, and full E85
compatibility. The car is supported by a custom dyno tune to tie
the combination together.Nitrous is integrated via a Nitrous
Express direct-port wet system controlled by a Maximizer 5
progressive controller. Supporting hardware includes a standalone
NX SAFE fuel enrichment system dedicated to the nitrous setup,
automatic remote bottle opener, bottle heater, and a custom switch
panel. Additional charge and intake cooling is handled by a V2
water/methanol injection system.Cooling and reliability have been
addressed with a C6 cutdown radiator and upgraded fan assembly
using a ProCharger-specific cradle, Evans waterless coolant
conversion, and a high-output 220-amp alternator with upgraded
copper lugs and power cables. The battery has been relocated to the
rear using a Taylor 200 Series aluminum battery box.The drivetrain
is reinforced with a McLeod RXT 1200 twin-disc clutch, upgraded
flywheel, Tick Performance master cylinder with remote bleeder,
2-inch primary stainless long-tube headers, and a 3-inch stainless
off-road X-pipe. Braking is upgraded with drilled rotors.Visually
and aerodynamically, the car features carbon-fiber front splitter,
side skirts, rear diffuser, and an extended rear spoiler. The front
bumper has been custom modified for increased airflow, and the hood
has been modified for improved heat extraction. It sits on 360
Forged three-piece carbon 20-inch wheels wrapped in ExtremeContact
Sport tires.Driver feedback is enhanced with an A-pillar pod
housing AEM X-Series wideband UEGO and nitrous bottle pressure
gauges, keeping critical data in clear view.Overall, this C6
Corvette represents a no-shortcuts build focused on boost, nitrous
integration, fueling, cooling, and drivetrain strength - executed
with high-end components throughout and configured for serious
performance while retaining the engagement of a 6-speed manual
convertible.See the "videos" tab above this description box for a
