Is that stock exhaust too? A bit hard for me to tell. Also, whats that strange fluttering noise the SC makes around 0:55 to 1:05? Just a harmonics thing with the mic or something else...?

is the engine suppose to move that much?

very normal .

Sam

oh yeah that's nothing for engine movement. fwd cars move like crazy compared to that. looks like it's coming together, gonna be interesting to see these kits come to fruition. my question is wtf is the sound at 58 seconds sounds like a fluid pump screaming or belt slip.

Yes we are still testing With stock exhaust and cats, we will be running more boost on the stock exhaust then we will switch the exhaust out and retest again. as for the noise it is the bypass valve flutter.

Sam

woowww.. Sam.. is 8 psi is safe for daily drive car??

For the amount of power/torque we are making @ 8 psi and the timing tables we're running, i would feel comfortable running more boost .

Sam

Is 8 psi gonna be what you guys are running for the CARB-legal version or is that already the race/higher boost version? Also, which trim Rotrex are you running with the G?

Good questions.. I would like to know too if this 8psi is for legal or for race boost version

Hi Sam was that the SC oil cooler mounted on top of bumper crash bar?
Did you have the air filters hooked up to the intake on the SC?

that sounded good.... The fluttering sounded like a bypass valve of some sort.... I dunno though....

The cooler was for the Rotrex traction fluid.

Anyway to eliminate that flutter? Not much of a fan. I had the same noise on my SC mustang whenever i let off the throttle. Or is the flutter intrinsic to centri SC's with a recirc set up :confused:

Cant wait for all of the info!!!!



DAN

The peak numbers look good. I wonder what the hp and torque curves look like, especially in the midrange rpms?

Our goal is to reached the 500 BHP mark which translate to 425 RWHP with our stage 1 supercharger. Currently we are testing our custom housing on the supercharger and we will continue to play with the pulleys and housings until we reach our goal which we should be there today .

As for the carb kit psi and power outcome it is premature to say right now.

Sam

Yes it is the SC oil cooler right behind the grill to maximize the air flow to it, and there is no air filter right now .

Sam

Withe the air filter in place and the bypass valve hook up in recirc set up, you wont here the flutter noise.

Sam

Sam, it sounds like you guys are playing with the compressor housing. Did I read that correctly?

Yes you did .

Sam

Here we go, you see how easy it is to get info out of us :D


Sam

That's really cool. I haven't heard of that being done on a supercharger kit, but maybe its one of the perks of using the Rotrex supercharger. Either way, pretty neat indeed!

Maybe its just the video but it seems like you can hear the charger much more than you hear the turbos on the twin system. Is this true Sam or is it the video? You would think a twin turbo system would be much more audiable. Looks like you should be able to hit the numbers you want. When you add in exhaust/hfc etc the power will get a little better.
Would low compression pistons help on a application like this????

Haha, thanks, Sam!:tup: The same horsepower at 4500 rpms that a stock G has at 7000+ rpms. Now that's what I'm talking about. Real world power. Nice.

Love that flat torque curve! VVEL keeping up very well so far

Sam I PM'd you my contact info looking forward to hearing back from you soon.

wow that TQ cure, or lack there of, is niceeee!

I didn't get anything

damn it Sam why your name got to be the same as sam@gtm. i see the latest poster and just glance and see SAM. I think it is Sam and GTM but no it is just you and you trying to get SC for you camel

Got it, you will see the proposal shortly .

Sam

Thanks Sam. Oh and f you Camel Sam. lol

You need to stop refreshing the page 20 times a second bro haha

Just remember there is no air filter on the car right now, so it won't be as loud when the air filters and the bumper are in place. lowering the compression will take away more then helping in a SC application.

Sam

Not even with the stage 3 Sam?

If I remember correctly, you had to use 100oct fuel to run 12psi on the Stage II TT kit on Christian's car? So maybe slightly lower compression might help with staying on pump gas?

Looking real good Sam.
Coming to Canada soon the first GTM SC
Can not wait to see it at 10 psig.

In a turbo application it is really easy to make up for the lower compression by simply adding boost. on the other hand in a SC application you are going to be limited by how fast you can spin the SC to make up for the lower compression .

Sam

I guess i wont be giving you your money back, It is working as promised ;)

you crazy MO FO

Sam

Woot. Over 400! Good job GTM!

can we get another 2psi and get it up to 10psi?

10 psi on stock compression and pump gas would be on the limit of calling for trouble I believe
