Picked up 92 over the 2.3 and whipple mono on the same pulley combo. Then add in the 200 shot and you get to 1,200 which is bad ass out of a sub 3 liter blower. Just kinda thought it would pick up a little more on boost only.

936 was the 2.3 10%/2.4. 965 was the 2.65 on a bigger upper and the 1,028 was on a 10%/2.4

VMPs 2015 Coyote car made 1020 boost only bone stock long block.

They are just getting going here .... this blower will make 1100+ easily on boost on the 5.0 platform very soon!

TBH those #s are a little lower than I was expecting. IMO if you want to make 1200+ on a trinity just go BIG KB or whipple.
I do agree with this, I have seen 4.2KBs on 13/14 GT500s lay down 1200whp, same with 4.0L whipples.

Unrelated, but what the hell is VMP’s pump control technique?

Weird? I was under the impression the built block/mods would help with increased HP/TQ?
Plus, would a stock 5.8 block and it's cylinder walls hold up to over 1000rwhp? (Not being a dick, serious questions.)

Sure. I have a JDM built 5.8 that’s warrantied for 1200. I believe they recommend sleeving if you’re going above that.

I responded more on the regular GT500 forum thread but it's a good start.
I'm expecting bolting on 100rwhp on my car if I go VMP Gen3 2650 over the Whipple I'm contemplating.
My car was a little stronger than this one on blower only, and yes I also have that NX spray bar in the lower!
I think we all agree we wanted to see the test without NOS clouding the picture, and I'd like to do that test.
I could car less on pure dyno numbers, I want to see how it pics me up at track.
10.009 to ????
965rwhp SAE Dynojet to ???
Regardless, badass to see it on a GT500 and very impressive!
BTW the 2R peaks around 19psi on my car around peak torque then drops off to 15psi before 7000rpm.
To me that shows the blower is running out of flow and that 25% more flow from the Gen 3 will hopefully correct that and make 19-22psi and carry closer to power peak.
Should be great area under curve increase if it prevents that boost drop off.

I didn't see this comparison but that's a very good increase.
Where'd you find that graph?
Especially as you look on how much better it carries power, that top end pull and area under curve will have the 2650 car run away hard on a strip or top speed event!

@biminiLX i took a screen grab from the burnout box when he was talking about it.
Just saw that and it's important to see how it not only raised the power and but carried it out nicely to 7500.
That's a huge benefit for racing and shows the reason the 2650 upgrade will pay off at the track.
I've learned a bit more about that car and I should have no problem matching or exceeding those results.
I'm not in this for dyno numbers but it's where we start obviously for tuning.
Looking forward to it.
By the way, all I'm saying is that I had a Gen 3 in my shop today!
Very cool to see in person.

Id be lying if I was slightly unimpressed with the 2650 at this point also. I understand it’s still very early.

J I almost think you need to go straight to a bigger unit and take advantage of the increased blower displacement I.e GEN 3 2.9 Whipple.

Or does Whipple offer the 3.0 rotor pack in gt500 flavor yet?

After seeing the Gen 3 in person and if a few to be determined variables pan out, I'd likely just stay Gen 3 2650 as it would give me JUST the edge I'm looking for for the goals of this build.
If going all out, yes I'd go 3+ liter but that sets off another set of variables.
Like anything in life it's about compromises, and for this build, the fuel system and Gen 3 will give me the foundation to have a solid 9s car when driven to the track in any conditions.
As you know on track it's more about fine tuning the combination and nut behind the wheel than absolute power.
Plus it's no accident I left the NX spray bar in the lower intake this whole time. Grabbing that button while already hooked up after shifting to 3rd will make the top end pull insane if blower alone doesn't satisfy!
