Luck? I wish. It took a lot of careful planning, selling my 2002 in 2006, pinching pennies, eating macaroni and cheese out of the box every night, donating blood twice every week...

hey i did the same thing. i sold my trans am in february of 06 and have been saving alot of money since then. i didnt donate blood though. just plasma and sperm. not at the same time.

cool jason, cant wait to see the results from the headers/scharger/tune. is he gonna dyno the car after the headers and whatnot, then put the supercharger on? or all at one time?

can someone blow up that dyno graph that was posted, I cant see it very good at all. looks like over 550tq and almost 500 HP? dynojet right?

right click the graph - click open in new window (or tab) that will do it.

They are going to test just the headers first.

cool jason.

when I right click on the graph, the "open in new tab/window lines are not lit up. as in, I cannot choose them.??????

480 hp with just the supercharger? 503 with headers and blower? am i reading the graph right? what was the stock basel ine power dynoed at?

85LT1Z28MEX

if I remember right, the first graph is street tune and the second is dyno tune.. but i`ll ask to be sure

wonder why those chargers dropp off at 5500rpm? man that is alot of power though for a nearly stock car still. must be a fun ride.

2010_5thgen

that is one thing i have heard as kind of a down fall from these bloweres. they do start to drop off in boost the higher the rpm range goes. gobbs of torque down low though.

IrocSS85

yeah its one of those things I guess. knew that they start VERY low in therpm to make peak boost instead of ramping up like a centrifugal. problem with that is, its kinda useless to have that kinda power if you cant use it cause you just spin the tires off the line. would make a very fun street car though. wonder if there's anything that can be done to shift that up in the rpm range a bit?

what does a smaller pulley do to the starting and ending point of the curve?

what boost is the stock pulley putting out?

anyone know of the limits of the stock rear end? Im liking these new cars more and more as I see them, and here how they respond to mods.

i dont know. i think im goign to order my s/c this week though. is hotpart.com still having that special with 750 off? will they price match if i find a better deal?


i saw on this one web site, they are sellingthe magna charger and the slp tvs2300 s/c. the price difference was crazy. it was like 7400 for the magnacharger and 6800 for the slp. whats the difference between the 2? just a distributor thing?

JasonD

The coupon still works, I just tried it.. As far as deal matching...I am sure they would like the opportunity if you find a lower price.

What site was this?
