- Jon first brought his Z to us almost 2 years ago looking to get tuned with his brand new vortech supercharger kit that he had installed.
Like any of us once he had a taste of boost there was no turning back. He got bored with 340whp @ 7psi on the regular vortech kit rather quick
and decided that he wanted more power. Jon opted to upgrade his vortech SC-Trim charger with a brand new T-Trim charger with race bairings and
straight cut gears. Further we modified the standard intercooler pipes to fit the massive 31" x 12" x 4" intercooler. Back onto the dyno again
Jon's car ended up laying down an amazing 398whp @ 12 psi through the standard vortech pulley setup! More than thrilled with his new power Jon felt
he was done. WRONG!!! After some mechanical problems with the votech kit associated in part by vortech's bearing issue Jon opted to remove the
Vortech kit and replace it with a Greddy Twin Turbo kit. Lets begin the build:
After installing all these parts the Z was put onto the dyno again. Running a stock block friendly 9psi yeilded a final number of 378whp. For now
Jon is again happy with his new found power for now but plans to build the motor, next fall and really push the Greddy turbo kit to its limits,
following his graduation from college. Good luck and cant wait until then!
Awsome, ran 12psi vortech on stock motor? and still running that stock motor with greddy? I bet owner didn't drive like granpa with all that vortech setup and now with greddy TT, damm still running strong huh! Nice job Functiontuned!!

Edit: Mike, All his setup tuned with UTEC?[/QUOTE]
Yes sir.. all tuning was done on the utec by dave!!
I can vouch for the owner..... he gets on it a fair share of times when he goes out .... and its def. fast!!!! Oh and I hope you ( Mike ) don't start charging me for any tech support via phone....hah
I cant recall off the top of my head. I will have the graph posted up later this week, we were unable to get them off the dyno this weekend!! Floppy Drive FTMFL
What kind of torque/whp numbers would that be on a DJ? At first I thought it seemed low but then I remember everyone talking about the FT "heartbreaker" LOL

I know that the dynopack will read a little higher than a DJ but its nowhere near my crank horsepower. For what its worth a '04 GTO with header back exhaust and intake put down 342whp on the same dynopack the same day (it was a dyno day). I know for a fact that the GTO has a lot more than 342 at the crank esp. with some bolt ons.
Well Dave has a DynoDynamics, they tend to read a little lower than Dynojets. The Dynapak dyno, like the one used at TurboXS, will read a lot higher if you want to dyno it on there.
Of course, like i said before, there is a reason that everyone wants to correct it to Dynojet numbers.

Not a whole lot. Yea I know everyone goes off of the DJ number and whenever I can find a dyno day or anyone who has a DJ that wants to dyno it for less than the usual $70 Ill put in on and see what it makes. The shop near me that has the Dynopack put me on for free just to see what it would make so I couldnt complain with that. Their dyno was brand new as of July and is "supposed" to read close to a DJ. How factual that is I dont know, but Im enjoying the car non the less at the power it is now. Come this winter then the time for high numbers will matter to me.
Also so everyone knows this thread should've been up since last June but being that Dave is so busy he never got around to putting up anything. Now that he has help Im sure you'll see a lot of updates from customer cars as well as the current projects that are going on there. Just incase anyone was wondering why Ive been tooling around for so long with the car the way it is.
