Lingenfelter gives the Corvette E-Ray hybrid a supercharger, which gives it an extra 161 hp at the wheels
Lingenfelter, Paragon Performance, and Trifecta have created the world's first supercharged Corvette E-Ray. Making 734 hp and 792 lb-ft of torque at the wheels, it now has 161 more horses, and 162 extra lb-ft of torque than the standard model. Despite the modifications, the car's hybrid powertrain still works as it did from the factory. Lingenfelter is so familiar with modifying Corvette s that its name is almost synonymous with the American sports car.
For instance, when it tunes a Stingray, Lingenfelter hides the cooling reservoir in the center tunnel, but in the hybrid Corvette, there are batteries there. As a result, the company had to find a new place for the tank, and build a custom one. The hybridized C8 also received a center-exit exhaust system and new intakes from Paragon, which was originally commissioned to start this project by one of its best customers, a guy called Stephen.
