Thanks for everything Sam (GTM) & Tony (SuperChargersonline.com) & Sopper (Sopper)
If you send me some pictures of your car with the new headlights I would be more than happy to update the pictures in the thread

Enjoy the car, its truely awesome!

Booger dont you think if the belt slips you will see a funny dyno graph where it would drop and sam probabaly wouldnt be able to tune the car properly. I just want see people w/sc go to willow in cali on sep 25 so i can eat you up. The car feels great on high rpms this thing is insane. I will be working with sam on numbers and probabilities for engine build to make 25psi out of the blower and so the engine can handle all this air. I have my own vision on how things work I put this set up together and sam finished it off. Its my first FI project Thanks Gt motorsports and superchargers online

when it slips, it usually slips consistently. It'd still be a smooth graph, but what'd happen is the tq would drop.

I'm starting to think the tq is dropping because your total exhaust is probably pretty restrictive. I bet if you went with a higher flowing setup, the psi would drop 1-2 psi and the tq wouldn't start dropping off up top

but it doesn't completely rule out the belt slipping, though I trust Sam wouldn't let the car go if it was. It should be pretty simple to figure out though - what psi do you hit at redline on your boost gauge?

two things...if you are running all the stock Vortech pulleys...13psi will come a little bit before redline . Second...to get 25psi out of the blower you WILL need to go to an all cog pulley system . And you will need to figure out a way to run wider belts than the 21 mil. belts to be able to spin the blower at that psi and hp level . Voetech couldnt figure out a way to go with wider belts with out major reconstruction of the front of the car . Good luck...enjoy the car , you will love it !!!!

Sam or George...

Is that intake hose a preformed piece? If so, could you give me a brand name and part number. I've been working on a Vortech car and really need to get a bigger air filter on this thing.

Thanks.
