“We are very excited to announce our Lingenfelter Authorized Installer Program,” said Mark Rapson, COO/VP of Operations for Lingenfelter Performance Engineering. This new program begins the next generation of bringing our performance programs to market.

“The complexity and system dynamics of today’s vehicle platforms have led to a paradigm shift in how performance upgrades are developed, which includes requirements for installation and integration,” said Rapson. In addition, the aftermarket landscape has changed; everchanging security with vehicle electronics, EPA regulations, calibrations process, and specialized hardware requirements for engine and driveline integration is restricting or eliminating DIY installation. We’ve been monitoring this trend towards less DIY, and an increase in demand for professional upgrade installs on new car and truck platforms.

The catalyst for introducing the Lingenfelter Authorized Installer Program came from a joint development with MAGNUSON for a supercharger on the new Chevrolet C8 Corvette. “Based on the sophistication of the C8 platform, the team realized early on that this would be a professional-only install program,” Rapson explains. As a result, the Authorized Installer Program was born, along with the specialized tools and system integration processes.

The Authorized Installer Program is a contractual agreement with select performance facilities geographically positioned to sell for install LPE performance upgrades. These professional facilities will be LPE approved and require specialized tools and equipment to perform upgrades to LPE specifications. LPE will supply calibration and integration support for the upgrades within the professional network.

This new program and its select partners will offer better access to LPE performance programs and give consumers confidence in knowing that the Lingenfelter Authorized Installer Program is a network of highly professional installer partners approved by Lingenfelter. “Our objective is to provide excellent performance and the best customer experience,” said Rapson. We will evaluate and expand the network for other LPE upgrades in 2023.

Together with our partners at Magnuson Superchargers, Lingenfelter Performance Engineering has invested two years of development, thousands of road validation miles, and track testing to produce an OEM quality, fully integrated supercharger program for the C8 Corvette.

The system was designed to work on C8 coupe and HTC Z51 models and features tuning using our “C-CAL” process to directly calibrate the factory ECM and does not require any supplemental piggyback devices. This creates seamless integration and excellent performance.

This new system was developed for the serious enthusiast and features our proprietary ECT (Extreme Cooling Technology) heat exchanger system to maximize cooling of the supercharger charge-air intercooler to control and lower intake air temperatures and prevent heat-soak.

Although the system is complete for the HTC platform, based on lead time for a couple of convertible-specific components, which are different than the coupe, we will launch the convertible program on January 11th, 2023.

The Lingenfelter Authorized C8 Corvette Supercharger Installer Program is a network developed to meet the demand for Lingenfelter MAGNUSON TVS2650 Chevrolet C8 Corvette DI 700 Horsepower Supercharger Package, which is ONLY sold as an installed program. The growing Lingenfelter Authorized Installer network is a select group of installers trained to complete installations to our specifications using only Lingenfelter approved tools, components, and processes.

The network is geographically positioned to make it easier for customer installs, so everyone has easy access to enjoy the C8 Corvette Supercharger upgrade. The program includes both the C8 coupe and hard top convertible.

The C8 Superchargers are IN STOCK, and the purchase process starts with a $1000 deposit for a list placeholder to manage demand. A full deposit will be taken at the time of the confirmed installation date.
