Ive got a S-trim 3.33 pulley, 77mm Pro-M, K&N, Custom superchip, copper plugs, 9mm wires, bassani x-pipe,
Steeda dyno tuned to 467rwhp
Steeda dyno tuned to 467rwhp
see sig.
yep traction sucks without slicks traping at 112 i'am not the best driver at the track only ran the car 2 times might go this week on drag radials, eaton super brute, and 4:30 gears if i can get my 2.19 60 ' times down 12 are for sure.
411 rwhp. See sig for times: stock tires, worn clutch, and road race suspension. I had a 10# pulley but had belt slippage and never saw 10psi.
Since then, I have a forged block, T-Trim/ w/16# pulley, all the air and fuel stuff that you need, and SCT tune. We have not got it all together yet, I am hoping for something around 600 rwhp, but I will probably get about 550 at the wheels.
Good luck.

S-trim, 3.33, L/ts, hpipe, cb, 42s, 90MM MAF, 255 intank, and dyno tuned to 475 rwhp. Now I'm making 0rwhp because I'm blown-up. :bash:
whats the highest amount of boost you guys would recomend with a good dyno tune? i was thinkng 8-10 should be safe for the stock bottom end. im likin the #'s you guys are puttin down, they are higher than i expected. how many of you are on the stock bottom end because i wont be able to go forged for at least 6-8 months after i get the kit put on. what are your thoughts here?

edit: Im dyslexic, u said 16:bash:

I'd say 10 should be safe with a good tune as long as you don't beat the crap out of it. Although I will say that anything can happen. I mean I never thought 4 mo after putting the blower on that a seal would go, causing my motor to also go. :fm:
Ill probably run 8 psi. then when i get used to it ill up it to 10 or so. then when i have to money for a bottom end and tranny ill do that and raise the boost a lot and make some serious power. im gonna have a good tune and i dont beat my car up at all so i should be fine. i know there are more guys out there with vortech kits, i want all of our imput please. have you guys had any bad experiences with your SC or what. let me know whats goin on fellas. thanx!

I was at 468/433 rwhp with a hyland tune on 10 psi bassani O/R x, ultraflow catback. wires and stock everything else. but like joe I am blown up too. I am working on a billet shortblock(stroker) with 9:1 comp. ported heads and intake, cams ,LT's and 16 psi. weldon fuel system with sumped tank and all. should be close to 650 rwhp( according th SHM) hopefully going by summer. winter here now so who cares.
True Blue Performance Shortblock, cleaned up heads, stock cams, vortech v2 w/gt impeller, AFM powerpipe, long tubes, x-pipe, borla side exhaust. 11psi @ 6700 rpm 511rwhp and 398 rwtq.
you should be trapping more mph than that, too. like 15-17 range...
not a vortech but........711rwhp/656rwtq and 10.89 in the 1/4 on 315 BFG DR's
S-trim with a 3.25 pulley only making 7 pounds of boost for some reason 440rwhp on livernois mustang dyno. Ran consistent 12.20's @ 117mph hooking 1.76 60ft's on my road race suspension with some shitty firestone tires....The 60 ft is unreal if you ask me....
also looking to go s/c already have my bottom end redone .020, je piston's manley rods, just want to know whats the best charger for an occasional street use car not a daily driver here, maybe couple times a week. lookin for some input I'm kinda new to the mod motors, so any help is appreciated, although I have been considering swapping my 408windsor out of my drag car,which has been sold now into the cobra for some serious fun, it makes 715hp at the flywheel, but I think thats a bit much for street use!!!
