Chevrolet, a division of GM, promotes its E-Ray model as a high-performance sports car capable of accelerating from 0 to 60 miles per hour in 2.5 seconds and completing the quarter mile in 10.5 seconds.
Priced at $104,900 before taxes and options, the E-Ray packs a powerful punch with 655 horsepower and 592 pound-feet of torque, making it an enticing option for performance enthusiasts.
Despite impressive performance figures, BoostDistrict, a Texas-based company, offers a twin-turbo kit for the C8 Corvette, enhancing its capabilities even further. Installed and tuned for $21,250, this twin-turbo kit boosts the E-Ray’s output to over 1,000 horsepower, delivering exhilarating performance on the drag strip.
Equipped with Precision 6466 turbochargers and other performance enhancements, this modified Corvette achieves remarkable power levels, rivaling exotic supercars. While aftermarket modifications offer substantial performance gains, General Motors plans to introduce its own twin-turbo Corvette, the C8-generation ZR1, boasting approximately 800 horsepower from a 5.5-liter DOHC engine. This upcoming model signals GM’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of performance, following in the footsteps of iconic turbocharged Corvettes from the past.
