So let me get this straight....

Old setup...

• stock set you would make 21psi
• you would shift and it would drop to 6psi
• you where loosing 3psi on old mani
• heat soak i assume
• so 21psi - 3psi (from stock mani) you should of been 24psi total..correct

with new setup...

• probably 24psi at max rpm
• shifting boost from 6psi to 9psi now
• higher flowing mani
• no heat soak
• and belt is tighter so no belt slippage

my lord this thing is going to be an animal! so your telling me the stock roots when shifting drops to what 10psi??? and then rises to 15psi...correct

and you will be shifting to 9psi and rising to 24-25psi...can you say murda!

 

can prochargers not cost so much?

 

still need to tune and we will see! Raven I have you gm gasket that will be here friday garrented to me! So if no cometic then we can still roll on!

 

good deal....socalecotecs meet march 16th...no pressure

 

No pressure! Cant wait to see it done! Ill go take some head pics today @ lunch time! Also I will have a flow sheet for you and some engines to compare it too (for both of are info)!

 

this is why u have my car lol...hopefully it can make it to the meet

dont forget that hood too lol

 

chevy is this info correct above????

my question i have is...will the lsj hold up to 24-25psi...i would think it would because of the smooth power increase that the procharger produces and low air temps but then at 24psi that is is going to be warm (gotta love a FMIC)

 

Its correct! The motor will hold it fine. im more worried about the intake manifold! LOL

 

what we talked about should fix that up tho...

 

Sweet!

 

Yeah it is, we shall see!

 

dude love the vid!

 

Raven SPecial SUpercharger???? details?

 

No details untill a few weeks from now if everything goes to plan! But i can tell you it is over the 350 whp mark very easy!

 

inlighten me is it a positive displacement or a centri blower?

 

sorry eddie only time will tell! I will have dyno numbers and videos of it also! You can ask ravenss if he want to tell you then its on him!

 

like that damn thought u'd hook a fellow californian up but no dice. is it cuz i'm from nor-cal? it is isnt it. damn discrimination will never end. damn it all to hell, haha

 

**** matt where the hell is the new video you're killing me lol

 

Guys I apologize the website should be up and running in the next couple of days. This will have pictures/vids and any info chevy can get me.

Rick

 

As rickyw said it will be at my website! I will have all the info for the build there for you to see! including the old dyno grahp and the new one after its done. Also I will make videos of my vs a corvette, STI, and another cobalt! just see we have an idea of how fast ( or slow ) it maybe. Also I have a buddy with a vortech on is mustang that will be the true anwser of how this thing works. Im sorry for the delay in the video but Im installing the vibrant header and downpipe with a magen racing exhuast for the final tune! I still need to get my new filter for the kit also so I can hit just over 24psi of boost! not that the boostr gauge gos that high anyway!

 

I'll reserve my opinions till I see dynos or track times

as a former owner of a vortech ecotec you can understand my skepticism

 

No I understand I went though a lot of thing just to get this far! But with 238 whp @ 12 psi I think at least the potential is there for it to open up. But theres always the fact that you cant get around i know! But it was fun to build a is very one of a kind as of right know and it gets a lot of attention from everyone at the shows. In fact it won a small car show here in my town!

What vortech did you have on yours? Was it an ss/sc? or a 2.2l? Is it the kit I saw on ebay for the cavalier?

Also what pulley and head unit did you have? was it intercooler?

Sorry for all the questions Rodimun_Prime but I really want to know!

 

no secrets will be leaked lol

 

I had a RSM Vortech kit ran about 6psi on a 2.2 L61 Cav it put down about 185whp untuned, never could get it into the 14s though because there was no boost until 5500

 

thats hott
