Not L related but ... Corvette

Lingenfelter Performance Engineering had always been able to beef up the Corvette, but now they put it in a kit. Read below:

This latest LPE product is a supercharger kit for the C5 Corvette. Installed on a base 350-hp model, the $6400 kit ups horsepower to 490 at 6000 rpm and increases torque from 375 pound-feet to 480 at 4600 rpm. The kit is also available for the 405-hp Z06 model, but due to the Z06's freer-breathing heads, the horsepower increase is a mere 125, to 530.
530 horsepower on the Z06! ouch!!!

But check this out
The supercharger uses the same internals as the blower that's installed as original equipment on the Ford SVT F-150 Lightning.
