My Vortech Build

I think our stock block is perfectly capable of 475hp/400tq with a Vortech. Torque is what breaks our rods. A supercharger comes on more linear than a turbo and turbos hold up well on our cars up to 400tq.
Our problem is 91 octane. If your car was tuned for 100, C16, E85, or meth, you would last years at 475hp/400tq on your stock block.

I have to get used to this car again. The sound of the racing bpv but its freaking loud. I might need to modify this in the near future if I dont get use to it.
Thanks everyone for your compliments!

Should I change my name to invurg35? I like it!
I asked him for one but he said his dyno isnt set up for it yet. Something about a device he needs. Not sure what that meant. He should have it sometime next year.
I would love to know the ramp up info myself. Do you know of any shops around the bay that can provide that?

you dont build boost when cruising.
Man, with even a 5 smoothing on those dynos, those curves looks very choppy. I cant even imagine how rough they'd look on a smoothing of 1.
Look how smooth your baseline is. Thats what your new curve should look like as well. I know its "detuned" but theres no reason to make the powerband soo choppy when doing so. Smoother is safer
This tune looks alot better. I would stuck with that for sure after it all the dips were cleaned up. The proper smoothness of the trq curve is really obvious on this graph as well.

These last couple of days have been a blast. The car is runnign like a beast. The sound of the BPV just scares people when I roll by, lol.
So far nothing but smiles from me and all my passengers, which includes my wife! Always a plus when she is smiling!
Mad props to ZCG I will be posting a review on them in the review section since that place hardly gets any attention!
I will keep posting here with updates! Thank you all for your advice and compliments!
