After months of design and development, we are proud to announce the debut of our new cog driven race kit for C6 Z06 Corvettes. Corvettes are known to fight belt issues when trying to push the envelope and make big horsepower. A standard ribbed serpentine belt can only take so much load before it starts to slip, squeal, jump, or break. This product came about when a customer approached us wanting to build a Z06 that would be capable of beating the current record for the worlds fastest C6 Corvette. It came to us with a ProCharger D1SC system already on it but in order to make the power it would take to propel a C6 Corvette into the 8’s, we would definitely need to upgrade the blower system.
That’s when we sat down and came to an agreement that we weren’t going to waste our time on a ribbed belt drive and started designing a cogged race kit that will run a 50mm wide cog belt. Fast forward a couple months of design, development, prototyping, and testing, and we are proud to announce the newest House of Boost product. Along with the new drive system, we built a fully forged LS7 short block, a brand new House of Boost/Aeromotive fuel system that is capable of supporting 1600+hp, and a built RPM 4L80E automatic transmission. The end result after the build was a Z06 that makes 1103RWHP and 949RWTQ at 6400rpms making 23lbs of boost.
After dyno tuning it was put it into a trailer and headed down to Baton Rouge for track testing. Although we fought some shifting issues the car still went 153mph out the back door on a soft launch and having to lift twice. There’s plenty left in it but unfortunately rain came in and ended out weekend early. In the end, everyone was still impressed on how well the new drive system performed and we are already taking orders for other projects.

We will update this later, but wanted to get started with getting some photos up (much more to be added)
But a this TBSS is going to be WICKED…….more soon to come……
First things first, this GTO is currently featured in this months GM HighTech magazine, so be sure and check that out!
Anyways, so we knew that the small intercooler that came with the orginal P1SC system was holding these cars back after it would get heat soaked. Since after the car was warmed up, the HP numbers would suffer due to the inlet temps. So we looked for a solution, and it came in the form of a MUCH larger front mount intercooler, and an upgrade to 3″ tubing. The stock ATI intercooler we have found does great up to about 550-600hp, and then a bigger solution is needed. The intercooler system consists of just 2 tubes now, and 4 pieces of rubber! Talk about easy installation, and no more worries about couplers coming apart under high boost. (This car makes 14psi)
Check out that jump in midrange TQ! And it was actually 3 degrees warmer inside the shop on the pulls with the larger intercooler. Even with 14psi of boost, and just a mild dyno fan, we were only seeing a rise of just 24 degrees of inlet temps on back to back pulls. The camshaft that we use with this GTO package, is designed to make TQ and a streetable power curve, we think you will agree it does just that.
On September 19th House of Boost hosted an Open House and Charity Car Show to benefit the fight to cure Diabetes! Featuring food, coffee and some great classic and late-model cars and trucks.
There was prizes, giveaways and a raffle for industry-leading performance parts, like an Aeromotive A1000 fuel pump, Auto Meter boost gauges, gift certificates, industry apparel and more. Charitable donations were given to help the cause!
Whats better then cool cars, prizes, coffee and food…. and a good cause?
Thanks to “Doty” for the wicked photos of the event!

This daily driver was feeling a little “bland” to the owner after he put 60k miles on the clock in just a matter of 2 years. So in order to “spice” up the car, and put the “wow” back into driving her everyday, we suggested bolting on ATI ProChargers new 6.1L Hemi Supercharger system.
The results speak for themselves…… and the owner is grinning ear to ear, each time a Mustang pulls up next to him on the highway.
The owner wanted his C55 to have just a little bit more “rumble” then the stock AMG exhaust system delivered. So the idea was to remove the center resonator that was in the stock system. This simple little mod, paid off with a GREAT change in the cars sound, and also picked up quite well on the Dyno.
Now when he steps down on the gas pedal, you can hear more then the engines fan making noise.
Here is an example of what a little boost on a LS2, plus some long tube headers can do. This car runs a little less boost, then the LS1 car the is posted below (since the compression on the LS2 is higher) so we add a simple set of headers, to get the same power gains. Car was tuned in-house with 60lb injectors, Boost-A-Pump, and EFI-Live.
Stock Automatic, other then the A&A Vortech Supercharger system, and a set of Dynatech headers. The car ABSOLUTLY needs more tire under it now!
Thats right, with NO other modifications done to this 100% stock 2000 Corvette. We bolted on a ProCharger P1SC system, and picked up exactly 200 rear wheel HP! Talk about bang for the buck. We started with the ProCharger tuner kit, which does not come with injectors or a tune. We then supplied a set of 60lb injectors, a Boost-a-Pump, and then tuned it in-house with our EFI Live software.
The only other modifications to the car are a set gauges to watch boost, and fuel pressure. (Which we recommend on any Forced Induction install)
This daily driver, just got a wicked upgrade in the performance department, with 100% stock driving habits. This was also one of the first “quiet” blowers that we had purchased from ATI procharger. ($100 upgrade at time of purchase) And when they say “quiet” they should have said “silent” since the blower is quieter then the electric fan.
This car previously had was set up with a 76mm, Alum Block, 6 Speed, and FAST XFI System (Bank to Bank)
Now she features a 88mm, Iron Block, Turbo400, and BS3 System.
The list of things changed, are so long it could be a novel. The intercooler system was upgraded, all piping was converted from 2.5″ to 3″. The downpipe was made custom 4″, with electronic cutout. The blow off valve was much undersized, and upgraded to a Tial unit. The wastegate was upgraded to a 50mm unit, up from the 38mm before. All the wiring in the interior, and engine area was completely stripped and started over. Every single wire in this car is now soldered and heat wrapped. With the BS3 system now onboard, it idles and drives MUCH more smooth then the previous Bank to Bank set up. It also now has an IAC motor, to control idle speed better when going in and out of gear.
The converter in the tranny still needs to get ironed out, before applying the N20, and attempting any good track times.
However, its already a handful when that turbo lights off to the tune of 26psi. Look for more updates as the days go on.
Shes a great looking car, and an absolute blast to drive!
