Default FI Gods ... need an estimate ...

Looking for some advice from you guys ...

Right now, I am turning 280 NA rwhp. What would you guys expect me to see from a Vortec kit.

You can see my sig for mods ... I have added a pulley and flywheel/clutch is next before FI.

And the verdict is .......


And just to spice it up, whoever guesses the closest, will recieve ....

a 12 pack of their choice of beverage ... will be a couple of months though.

I don't know, but be sure to lose the pulley or you will underdrive the supercharger.

Would it affect the numbers you guys threw out if I said I was keeping the UR pulley but jumping to a 9# blower pulley ?

I have thought the same thing since I already have the pulley and I am getting the Vortech kit. But honestly, I wouldn't try it. Just sell the pulley and put the money towards the tuneup.

I am guess that you'll get about 410 rwhp. If I hit it, make mine a 12 pack of Pennsylvania Dutch Birch Beer.

I wonder how would the JWT cams work wtih the SC. Anyone did any actual dyno on the supercharger. Then adding the cams? See if it gain or loose power?

Where did you order it from and how long did they say the expected wait would be? I ordered mine yesterday so, hopefully it will be here in a week or so.
