my new project for the next few months.

The car is now up at the Dyno Shop in Littleton Colorado.


Hope to have some videos later tomorrow.



Ended up Driving it the 65 miles up there. No issues other than it loading up pretty bad around town. But with 80 lb injectors........I can see why.

SO......


The dyno's PC took a lightning hit the night before tuning was to take place. so it got canceled.


Just got a call from the shop saying it was back up and running. hoping to have it DONE tomorrow.


Mike
 
yep.....That's it. Had some trouble with my phone posting it as private.


This thing is WICKED loud. I'm going back up tomorrow to help with the tune somemore.




With ear plugs.
 
Small Update.

Supercharger is toast.

Impeller nose cone came off and got sucked through the impeller while running down the highway.

I'm not screwing around with Procharger this time around, and am having a Billet impeller machined for me along with a new hardened impeller mainshaft. All new bearings are here waiting to recieve the two replacment parts from Japan.

We're looking at a 10-15% improvment in airflow over the stock cast impeller.

Way back when I used to install them I don't remember ever having one blow up for that reason? I know a few sucked in the hoses that they tried to use as a cold air kits destroying the engine in the process of wiping out the Vortech at the same time.
 
It's not a Vortech.

The F1 Prochargers are known to have these nose cone issues. I had a new Nose cone/hold down bolt created so as not to have this problem again.

Pay to play type thing.
