So is the CJ really that much better than the Boss?
not to be a vibe killer but guys are making that power with LT's full exhaust, intake, e85. :shrug:
No vibe kill at all. First, it's a dynojet, but I've heard that one at that shop dynos low. Second, my motor was built basically for a power adder so I've been told it robs some power to rotate it. I'm not on e85 either or don't plan on it because it's inconvenient for me, but the car feels good and the truth will be in the mph at the track if I can ever make it out there. Also, another 2012 gt on the same dyno with 12.5:1 compression stage 3 ported heads, LTs, comp stage 3 cams and e85 made 509 so I think I'm ok.
The other 12 gt is right on par. Cams in my opinion do nothing to a car without a good set of heads. Together, they make great power but this is obvious.
So whats your plan to hit 500 mark without corn? Your motor was built on low comp for boost?
No it's stock compression. I don't know for sure if I'll hit 500 and won't be upset if I don't. My only other plans are to add 1 pc driveshaft and CJ setup. I'll be happy with that. If that amounts to about 470-480ish on the same dyno, I'm good.
470 area is still very good! good luck with the car
Thank you, sir. I'm still trying to decide between a 9-10psi KB 2.8LC or a high powered NA build. I love a high RPM V8, but I also love the instant torque of a twinscrew. Tough decision for me.
Itzslow, right now I'm not sure a Paxton or Vortech will fit with a CJ intake due to the oval throttle body position and where the blower sits. You'd have to come up with a custom install
