Edelbrock E Force Supercharger Installed and Tuned! - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

PJ droopy pants · 05-22-2010, 12:18 AM

Picked the car up from Speed Engineering today after Jeff completed his custom tune for me, everything in drivetrain is stock except a Magnaflow axle back and of course the S/C 6lbs of boost, picked up 96 hp with the S/C and the Edelbrock tune and then another incredible 92 hp with the custom tune, also installed wideband and boost gauges. Mounting the CCW wheels tomorrow and will be adding a CAI as soon as someone has a kit for this S/C and also will be adding AMR Headers and a full 3" exhaust this summer. Im am very happy with this Supercharger kit and extreamly happy with the tune.

Congrats PJ droopy pants on the new tune I am glad everything worked out for you. I can't wait to get my Edelbrock E Force Supercharger should be ship to me next week and install the week after very nice numbers.

Nice numbers but why the drop in each run (sorry still new to the dyno game) and assuming its on an LS3

that sudden drop is either when we hit the speed limiter or where we let off the throttle at red line, they both seemed to happen right about the same time in 4th gear. Yes it is an LS3.

PJ droopy pants you can get even more with a CAI and headers.

Buffnshine · 05-22-2010, 01:11 AM

Cool, can't wait to see it on a L99. Im leaning towards this over the maggie. Can you post pics when you get a chance. Thanks and congrats again, also sounds awesome

VADER SS L99 · 05-22-2010, 02:11 AM

92hp from the tune? WTF was wrong with Edelbrocks tune? Buffnshine, I would not even consider the Maggie over this SC IMO. I did alot of research on this blower when it was being built for the Mustang(as I used to own 1) and can tell you for sure that its a better blower.

What makes the E Force so much better? I've had three maggies that have been flawless. I haven't bought my next 'charger yet though. Looking to learn.

I know I have heard the fittings are vetter, but Im supprised at the numbers. Last I heard they are still waiting to ship the L99 version.

Where is Speed Engineering at?

Chewy · 05-22-2010, 10:23 AM

is the second graph with the edelbrock tune? or no tune at all?

i'm very surprised at this 92HP increase with just a different tune

old motorhead · 05-22-2010, 12:52 PM

Adding 188 hp with just a blower (at 6psi) and mufflers is very impressive. 31 hp per pound of boost is as good as I've seen.....magical

SonnyakaPig · 05-22-2010, 01:02 PM

I don't understand how the E-force could make 475 hp with the LS3 on the canned tune. That seems more like an L99 number. It's just seems odd is all I'm saying.

I noticed that your tune has your AFR really lean. At one point it pops up to the high 12's if I'm not mistaken. Are you sure you want to keep it that way? From what I understand, that lean state can contribute to higher horsepower, but is it good for longevity?

On a good note, I notice that the E-force makes it's power along the same lines as the stock LS3 -- just more power. And I think that's a really good thing. Our cars were designed to have the power curves that come from the factory and with your kit you stayed consistent with those power curves, you just increased them... By a lot! haha

Congrats on your blower. I'm sure you're going to love it.

I wonder how big the pulley is. Must be very big to make 6 psi.
