Recap:
Installed Vortech V2 S-Trim blower and SLP long tube headers. During the process, I upgraded the factory injectors to 60 pounders and the fuel pump that was supplied with the Vortech package. Also included is air/water charger cooler system to keep everything nice and cool and installed NGK TR6 spark plugs.
Finally tally?
538 RWHP / 477 LB-FT Torque with a solid 12.3 AF across the board.
Probably a tad bit more power there, but I'm happy.
First impressions?
Spent about 3 hours playing around. No traction in 1st, 2nd, and most of 3rd gear. 1000-3200ish RPMs feel a bit stronger, but the rush comes in after about 3200 or so. From there it pulls like a freight train. Mashing the go pedal down at 70 mph in 4th gear is heaven.
My friends ass was trying to eat the seat on one 60-100 mph run on the interstate.
Exhaust note cruising around town is noticeably deeper, but not much louder. Full throttle is a different story, however. Interstate cruising is fairly subdued, actually.
Not sure if I'm going to do anything else to it. Possible a FAST intake manifold or some such, but beyond that will probably be pushing it.
Can't wait to get it to the track!
