I just recently had an A&A kit w/V-3 upgrade installed on my 2006 Corvette. Great system with nice #'s! I'm currently getting about 510/440with a really safe tune on a stock block. I'm currently planning for future (6-8 months) upgrades.

First with the V-3 Trim, is it possible to get more power from that unit by installing a smaller pulley? if so, how much more? If possible, something I may consider until the major upgrade.

I do plan to forge the bottom-end and go with a V-7 Trim next. Since I already have a V-3, do I need to buy a whole new head unit or does the upgrade from V-3 to V-7 only require the purchase of a few parts to add to the V-3 unit?

I know that I'll need a fuel system as well... any suggestions?

I'll also be going with a blower cam. I'm shooting for 700whp, is this attainable without aftermarket heads?

thanks

Get it from andy, I am pushing 857 rwhp with his YSI unit and his 1100.00 fuel system and a boost a pump. With no problems at all. Plus these # is on a Mustang dyno. Get you a set of good V/spring and better pushrods. You will not find any place that will help you any better than the guys at A/A....:thumbsup:

Thanks for the info, I think I'll be happy with 800whp. I've also been checking with the guys at Vorctechsupercharging. They seem to be pretty good as well.

Did you go with aftermarket heads or cam?
