Corvette + Turbocharger = Uh Oh!

2011 Chevy Corvette Grand Sport Convertible

If you're a Corvette owner, you know as well as I do that the only way to get more power out of that car is with a Supercharger. For those who haven't noticed, only a small portion of Vettes work well with a Turbocharger, like the ones built by Lingenfelter and Dallas Performance. Unfortunately, a small tuning company known as Hinson Motorsports learned this lesson the hard way. While recently testing their Twin-Turbocharged Vette, they managed to get it to Pagani Huayra-Speed, but after that, things went terribly wrong. The car managed to roll off the road twice into the grassy area where it skid to a stop. Luckily, the driver of the Vette was fine after the accident. The Vette wasn't however. So, take heed, young tuners of the next generation: unless you can tamper with the Vette's suspension and stability, never give it a turbocharger. The car does just fine with a supercharger. Take a look at the horrific accident below.
