- Yes. There's a third party group with an excellent reputation for modifying
- Corvettes, Callaway Engineering.

- Last one I remember seeing (older) was the Callaway Twin Turbo. I'd also heard
- mention of a Callaway SledgeHammer (turbocharged ZR1 ?). I seem to recall
- that they've been working with Nitrous Oxide injection modifications to both
- the stock LT1 and to the ZR1. From what I understand, the ZR1 version of the
- NO2 injection pulled an estimated 520HP (someone correct me if I have this
- wrong).

- Hopefully someone out there will have more detailed information on this.
