In stock form, the C7 Chevrolet Corvette is more than capable of doing an impressive burnout. The 460 horsepower LT1 will easily roast the wide rear tires fresh off of the showroom floor. Doubly-so if that powerful V8 is paired with the 7-speed manual transmission. However, when you add a little forced induction to the new LT1/manual transmission combo the result is a Corvette which will do real damage to the rear rubber.Here is a Procharged C7 doing just that. Running at 7psi of boost, this Corvette is easily making 600+ horsepower with just as much of an increase in the torque department. We don’t have dyno sheet to prove it, but the odds are good that this car is making solid power thanks to the blower.The owner of this Corvette had just finished installing the Procharger setup on this C7 Corvette Stingray. There’s no better way to celebrate than to let all of this newfound horsepower stretch its legs. After all, everyone loves burnouts and in the safe confines of the private parking area. Far less chance of getting a ticket for exercising a 600+ horsepower Corvette.The video (which is fairly grainy, presumably captured with one of the very first camera phones) starts by showing the driver and his Corvette hat, but the burnout action begins right away with the driver dumping the clutch and smoking the tires hard for a good 25 seconds.Crank up your speakers and enjoy!Tags: Burnout Fridays, C7 Corvette, Chevrolet, chevrolet corvette, Corvette, LT1, ProCharged
