Happy Dyno Day with my TVS 2300 - Lateral-g Forums

MattG · #1 08-05-2014, 03:14 PM

First off, I want to thank my tuner Ed Hutchings from Hi Tech Tuning out of Chesapeake, VA. Many claim to have the best tuner, but for those in the know, Ed is one of the best by far and he proved his skills to me yet again.

Here's the setup:

Stock LS3 crate motor
LS9 cam with stock valvetrain
Magnuson TVS 2300 for a 2010 Camaro ported and fit for a Wegner 10rib front runner setup by Casey Wegner
Injector Dynamics ID 850 injectors
12 pounds of boost
C&R heat exchanger for 1969 Camaro (Ed said it was Very efficient)
Kooks 1 7/8 headers with 3" exhaust
Magnum t56
Moser 3.73 wavetrac 12 bolt rear
Ricks Vaporworks tank with Camaro ZL1 pump and regulator (pump is maxed out)

Now I originally thought it would make 8pds of boost, but I guess I got the wrong pulley, cause 12psi later we made some real steam:

643 RWHP and 568 RWTQ!

Ed gave it a really conservative tune and said the motor could take a lot more, but I was more than happy considering going in that I was going to make around 550 rwhp.

The engine idles at 750 rpm, drives perfectly and on my drive home today to Northern VA, I managed 23mpg on a 225 mile trip from a car with roughly 760hp!

I really couldn't be happier with my rather simple setup!

Thanks Trey, I agree...never thought I would have too much power, but I'll go slow getting used to it for sure. Funny thing is if you keep your foot out of it and it drives like a daily driver!

Congrats Matt. Should be an E-ticket ride!

I can't comprehend having that much hp on tap and keeping my foot off the "go" pedal long enough to get that kind of mileage. Great restraint on your part, and a very nice looking setup!
