So.....They're no longer saying that the 1900 is more "effecient" on an LS3 than the big, lumbering, power hungry, heat producing 2300? Hmmmm

I'm assuming that, if it's from MTI, you have the TVS1900 blower. Correct? How much boost does it take to make those #'s. Must be fun. Enjoy
I've got the TVS2300 8lb's of boost

Not that bad to keep clean, all my cars for the past 15 years have been black, except my corvette's

Mind if I ask how much boost you are running? Also, have you upgraded the internals at all?

Great numbers!

thanks,
Crowley

Did they happen to give you a dyno graph with a SAE correction factor? The STD is always much higher.

Im in love with the car though. It is SUPER clean.

The efficiency of the 1900 is better for this size of engine. It is like slapping on a 1050 Dominator Carb on an engine that works best with a 600 Holley. But, "bigger is better" is what is marketed these days so we'll go with the flow.

Our DynoJet is spot on. Our STD reading on the graph is exactly what another shop's dyno will read on SAE. We have verified this numerous times vs. another local dyno same day, same car. So the 623 rwhp is absolutely 100% correct.
The increase of almost 200 ft-lb of torque at 2500 rpms is staggering.


To change the boost levels, different methods are used for each engine based on camshaft profiles, cylinder pressures, header flow, and achieved by different rear pulley step up drive, different supercharger pulleys and/or crankshaft pulley.

If your application needs only a smaller front pulley, call us and we can make one for you.

So...
Maybe Round 4 is 500 cu. inches of MTI Racing/RHS Block like this?.......

Stephen, did you guys ever finished that engine that had two S/C bolted on the top? Wasn't it like a 1000 HP that you were building?
