Before you get all excited about supercharging a C5, read the install time 2-3 WEEKS. The labor is rediculous and by the time the car is driving, you will probably have spent close to 10K. Also 11.7 @ 126 is a horrible ET for that mph. Everyone forgets about the little things that need to be done when building a car and how much money to set aside when the engine blows and the drivetrain spits out because it will. I'm sure that ET is crappy because they were scared to put slicks on it because the drivetrain would explode. I also have a hard time believing it went 126 mph with only 416 rwhp(490 w/ 15% loss). I would need to be there to believe that. The 03 Cobra is still in it's infancy stage. wait until a few knowledgable people get their hands on them and start modding them. Remember, it has a fully forged rotating assembly . After blowing up an engine, that carries alot of weight with me.

Your right it is a 2-3 week install because John is trying to do 5-6 at a time to keep up with demand. The trap time is crappy compared to the speed because he was getting 2.2-2.35 60's running on Goodyear Runflats. he did this because it is what most Vette guys still have on their cars. the rear end can hang pretty good till oround 480rwhp at least from what I have seen with those running high Hp on stock rears. The First real instal other then the tests was done on a Friend of mine Phil Kircher's Z06 he went from a 12.1@117 to 11.2@129 on the same Goodyear Supercar tires the car came with. he ran 11.0@128 on his DR's It's his everyday car and so the need to put some ET streets on it was deemed unnessary.

With the hood(you have to have a new one)paint, testing All parts and Instal it was $7600 plus another $300 for the 3year/36K warranty that LPE honors at any ASE certified repair facility. Maybe it will self destruct I mean you say it will right. John ligenfelter has no Idea what he's doing and is more then willing to put his name all over cars that are going to blowing up anyday.

If you have a kind bone in your body please help him out and tell him that he's commiting career and reputation suicide.

A roots type S/C puts less strain on the internals then does a Traditional S/C that is why he can be successful with it. Maybe he'll tell you about it when you call him to tell him just how stupid he is.
