UPDATED PICS ON PAGE 3 Hey guys, sorry for the delay on updates with this proeject. I'm starting a new thread for this project because the other one was getting pretty old.

We finished the fuel system and FCon install this week and began tuning yesterday. We ended the day yesterday with 481hp. This power was seen from 6-8000rpms. The tuner is sure that will be able to hit the low to mid 500's on pump gas.

Unfortunately when we resumed tuning today we snapped a drive belt and have to wait until Monday to finish tuning on pump gas. We will also be installing two more pulley setups, possibly 19psi and 25psi, and tuning with race gas.

I'll try to get some pics up on Monday.

Thanks,
Derek

 

What psi were you at ? Looking foward to some pics of the setup !!!!

 

Woops, totally forgot. This was at 15psi.

 

Good deal !!!! Now get them pics up !!!!!

When are you going to have it in the mag ????

 

no offense but i dont think it can more than 500, kind of maxingout the SC @15psi, people wont admit it but most z's depending on there twin turbo kit make 500-540rwhp on pump at that psi. fuel system with 1000cc injectors is maxed at 20psi i saw 570 rwhp.

 

None taken, but we will be making more than 500 on pump gas. This is a T-Trim supercharger, rated at 850hp, not the standard S-Trim. I dont know where you heard that 1000cc injectors max out at 570hp but our fuel setup with RC 1000cc injectors, Aeromotive A-1000 fuel pump and Walbro intank pump will be able to support 800+hp.

Got some pics up!!!

 

Amazing...

 

do you have a dyno sheet of what you've made so far?

what intercooler is that? Is that the same one Booger and Mean Gene have?

looking forward to seeing this setup perform

 

That candy apple Z on the cover of modified mag is the one im talking about, that 667 rwhp was on 116 octane, The car has a greddy kit, We could only pull about 520@16psi, cut the wastegates made 570@16psi tuned, the goal was 600, so we put in race gas, and tunes it to 667@20psi, we were gonna try to make more power, but the fuel pump....kinda just ran out on us. He had a aero fuel pump like yours also, but i dont think he had a walbro too. Good luck

 

Sweet! Cant wait to see what happens.

 

Unfortunately I dont have the dyno sheet yet but I will have one on Monday. This is not the same intercooler as Booger. I have a custom 31X11.2X4.5 I/C done by Active Performance Cooling.

Thanks.

 

nice solution to belt slippage!

 

Congrats! Now why cant all Vortech kits come with those pullies!! If they did I would buy one again!

 

Where did you get those pulleys and how can I get some?

Did you fabricate them? If so, how much would ya charge to do another set?

 

This work is part of a custom project done by Vortech.

 

What shop is doing the buildup?

 

Just got the august issue of dsport. this is by far my favorite magazine. good luck with the g35 and i hope to see you guys break 550 plus soon!!!

 

good luck, looking forward to seing the results

 

Thanks Tomcat

 

UPDATE On the first run of the day today we snapped another belt at 7500rpms. We put on a new belt and set the limiter to 7200. We ended the day today with 508.1hp at 7000. We're going to keep it here for now and take the car back to Vortech for a redesign of the pulleys and belts, using thicker and wider belts.

I'll get more pics up soon.

Thanks.
