1999 Supercharged Triple Black Corvette Vert.

K.W.'s Corvette is a wicked blend of power and class. At first glance, it seems to be just the average Vette with dark window tint and "bling bling" wheels. With one turn of the key though, all of those misconceptions disappear. The F/I LS1 roars to life with an unrestricted exhaust and a supercharger whine. Within seconds, you'll wonder if there is more to this Vette than meets the eye.

The HOB first met up with K.W. a little over a year ago. Initially, the Vette already featured a vast array of bolt-on mods. The car was quick and nimble, although K.W. felt he needed a bit more. After a few meetings with the HOB staff, his visions of a stroker motor or N20 faded and K.W. became hooked on the idea of F/I … 495 RWHP later he's loving the new-found boost, even at only 7 lbs.
