My Car is getting SCREWED by Techco! lol

Hey guys,
The title is not like what it sounds lol. My car is back at Techco Superchargers for the R&D. The process is underway and soon it will be available. They just finished the corvette LS3 and now going to my Camaro. They are great systems and very cool guys. Now just cant wait now till its done!

What the supercharger is all about:

The Revolutionary design allows air to move through the supercharger quickly and efficiently, without significant heat buildup, and at the highest resulting airflow volume at low boost output. The performance result is maximized horsepower and torque output.

Key Features of The TECHCO Reverse-Revolution Twin Screw Supercharger™.

* Reverse-Revolution Twin Screw Compressor with Asymmetric Multi-Lobe Screws
* 3.0L / 180 cu. in. Displacement
* Font Induction with Integrated Bypass
* 10 Inch Long Intake Runners
* Dual Stage Intercooler System with Single-Pass Coolant Flow through the A-Frame (2) Intercoolers, Large Capacity Heat Exchanger, High Volume Intercooler Pump and Recovery Tank
* Open Element Cold Air Kit with High-Flow Air Filter, CNC Venturi and High Flow Inlet Tube
* Extruded Aluminum fuel Rails with upgraded fuel injectors where applicable
* Separate 8-Rib FEAD (Front End Accessory Drive) with Dampener
* Ultra-Light Weight Aluminum Construction
* Flash Programmer



-My car had some computer problems before, but finally worked it out. (GM replaced the ECM because it was faulty.) -

-Here is a link to there site: http://www.techcointl.com/default.asp

Here is some pics of me dropping it off and doing some Baseline Dynos. (Dyno power was 380rwhp and 385 torque on a Dynojet) Pretty impressive numbers!

What the system looks like on a challenger

Im not sure if i will beef it up, depends on how much it cost.

The car should make around 520rwhp on 6psi with everything else stock.

So hopefully i dont have to upgrade the rear axles, cause i will be happy with that power for a while lol. I might switch the rear gears to 3.73 though.

It should put around 510-525rwhp on only 6spi with everything else still stock on your car. So you can make much more power with more psi and other mods. There is a 3year/36,0000 mile warranty on the whole powertrain. Well the other kits for the other cars cost 7,5000 but the LS3 might be a little more. Its all on there website i posted.

3 yr warranty on ALL the powertrain?! or just the motor? thats crazy if they warranty it from breaking any powertrain components. they must really trust the stock components.

It is for the whole powertrain. But they will only cover it on the base map i believe. The 6psi tune only. Well that is what they are doing for me cause i am the r/d car, but i am pretty sure its for everyone else too.

Yea, they have nothing yet for the camaro. Cause they are just starting on mine. The price is for the kit with a base tune. The installation is not included. But sometime they have specials on free installations with purchase.
