Bad day on the dyno
3 Attachment(s)
Finally got the car on the dyno. After the first pull the IAT sensor went out. Once we had that sorted out we started experiencing belt slippage issues, which I learned is typical with a ProCharger on a C5 bracket set up. We ended up installing a belt that was a 1/2" shorter once this was installed we fired up the engine only to here the impeller touching off inside of the blower.
Before the blower issue happened we were able to get 600hp with only 7psi of boost. This blower should easily put out 14psi and make between 700 to 750 HP. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rccR1LRSMqw |
600hp is pretty impressive! Im sorry to hear about the blower issue. How can the impeller be hitting the casing? Wouldn't it self destruct at that point?
I have zero exp with superchargers, just curious. I hope you get it figured out easily. Very nice car! |
Yeah blowers can be a PITA to get dialed in. Keep plugging away and you'll get things resolved.
Otherwise 600whp is pretty good #'s for 7#'s of boost. What are the motor specs again? |
It sounds god in the clip. Where in Texas are you?

Reason I ask is my buddy has an 4th gen TA with an LQ9 427 stroker with a D1 blower, ported Dart 225 heads, custom blower cam, Fast LSXR intake and BS3 fuel management he made about 660rwhp with about 8#'s of boost. he's currently swapping it from T56 to TH400 and is upgrading his fuel system. Looking to push 12-15#'s. He's been sorting this motor for quite sometime a local shop screwed him for some huge $$$ If you need any help I can get you in touch with his current shop and tuners up here. |

Good stuff, my buddy is running the F-body drive since its in a 4th gen. He also had belt slippage issues and installed some kit I cannot remember the name, I'll ask him and find out, I also know he rebuilt his head unit with some type of bearings again I'll have to check the details with him and get back to you. Good luck I think you'll get it sorted and the #'s where you want them.

Yeah, please let me know what he went with and if it is reliable.
