nice. is this on the 3.33 pulley or a 3.12?

 

^+1

Im getting my tuned and dynoed on Tuesday. Is this will the SS box?

 

Welcome to the darkside!

 

Yes, on stock 3.33 pulley and SS Box . Just got home from a great day of driving. The oil cooler really helped keep the temps down.

 

congrats!

 

Congrat, Btw, where did they put the blower oil drain line?

 

You have V2? or V3? and who's tunning/install?

Good question, I was wondering that myself. I have to call him on Monday to find out.

 

Wow...those are great numbers for the 3.33, granted you have some nice breathing mods to help that but still. One of the higher 3.33 numbers I've seen.

 

Yeah, same here. I was very impressed with numbers. The car pulls very strong and seems like it doesn't want to stop pulling
I know that in the future I will want more power, but for now I am more than satisified. Just have to avoid getting a ride in a TT 350Z.

 

You ride in any car that's built and TT'd and it's game over for your Vortech...just a fair warning. My budget simply limits me from going the built and TT route. What sold me on it though was my buddy's 900 hp TT'd '03 Cobra....

 

Oh I always thought it didn't have one since the V3 is a self lubricating unit like the procharger

 

thats what i thought too. im pretty sure there is no oil return line.... ill be installing mine as soon as it arrives in the mail maybe this week.

 

lol, thats pretty close to what i dyno'd with a 2.87 at 12psi.

 

Not if I steal it before you get it.


The race is on, Trav.

 

I made 378hp on a Dyno Dynamics with the 3.12 pulley.

 

DJ corrected or straight DD #'s? I saw 348 DD vs 395 DJ-corrected on MRC's dyno, now i'm 368 DD uncorrected

 

378 DD and 427 w/ the Dynojet correction. I dyno'd that on MRC's dyno as well.

 

nice, it would be interesting to see our cars pull side by side...PL vs Vortech with even output
