I know the TVS is a better supercharger all the way around but what I want to know is, on average, how much more power does the TVS deliver over the M62?

I know this will generally depend on what mods a person has but let's say just on a stock ss/sc.

 

going from a full bolt on m62 setup, and then switching to a tvs+bigger injectors. you'll pick up anywhere from 50whp to 80whp, sometimes more depending on other mods you add.

 

aaaaaand/ thread

 

Sweet! That was exactly the kind of information I was looking for. Thanks soccer!

 

thats a very general statement though. what you get out of it depends on what parts, and what quality, you put into it.

 

Well I have been trying to decide whether to turbo or supercharge my car. Seems a lot of people have turbos and M62's but the TVS isnt as common. And it seems that for around the same amount of money I can piece together the same parts for the supercharger setup then buy a new TVS and come out about the same as a new turbo kit, price wise at least. And the ease of the supercharger install seems better then the turbo.

 

are you stock now? what kind of numbers are you looking to get?

 

Yeah. Right now I'm bone stock on an L61. I know over 250 and I'm gonna have to replace pistons. If I could get 250-275 I'd be happy I guess.

 

ohh i thought you were an lsj..

 

No I just used that as a reference since I know what the lsj cars make off the top of my head.

 

My Experience
First Ever Dyno:
M62 w/ 2.85" Pulley - 5GPH Meth Injection - 60's - Stock Exhaust Manifold - 2.5" DP - GMPP Cat Back - Air box Mod - CX Heat Exchanger
272 HP / 256Tq

Immediately After Bolting on TVS - Same Dyno Shop
TVS w 80mm Pulley- All The Same except retuning MAF curve (no other changes to tune)
304 HP / 276tq

 

what size pulleys were those runs?

also, op.. are you looking for 250-275 wheel or crank?

 

Random, has a base Balt ever gone tvs?

 

Fixed!

 

yes. ross wyner... he was banned here and other forums i believe... not sure... but he's got an LT with a tvs on it i believe

 

stenguyen also did I believe.

 

Some good numbers 383!

 

If that's RossShady he had a 2.4 SS. At least that's what was claimed

 

He's still here...

And his car is a 2.4 SS/NA, not a base model.
