Padre & APF's D1SC+A6+GT9+WG+JBA.ST's = 619rwhp

Max trim = 619/572 @ 11psi (+195rwhp)
Daily Trim = 593/535 @ 9psi (+169rwhp)

Special thanks to John Lee at Atlanta Performance And Fabrication and Josh and Skipper and Brandon. We got her done!

Details: 2011 L99/A6 Camaro, <10k miles.
Bolt-ons: JBA Shorties, JBA catless midpipes, Meziere Electric Water Pump.
Drivetrain: 3.45 gears (swapped from an M6), 3200 FTI/RX Torque Converter, 18" TSW Rims with 305 MT DR's (20x9" stock rims/275 tires on all corners, daily trim).
Valvetrain: Lingenfelter GT-9 cam, Comp 675 Duals.
Blower: Procharger D-1SC, with Turbonetics Wastegate mod.
Fuel pump: drop-in Aeromotive Stealth for Gen5 Camaros, with return fuel system and 80lb injectors.

Best w/ cam: 11.633 @ 118.01 w/ 1.605 sixty.



Top run (26) is as installed, about 11psi, 16* timing.
Middle run (28) is when we dialed back the boost, 9psi, 16* timing.
Bottom run (16) is the base run with the GT9 cam.

Max boost was not a problem, but we didn't want to stay there. I should be able to run that more safely when I've got race gas, but on pump gas I had no Knock Reduction.

Startup requires waiting for the pump to prime, and the Aeromotive pump is noisy and noticeable, but I'm told it's not half as bad as the older external Aeromotives. But at max boost, we were somewhere around 75% Injector Duty Cycle. Startup also requires the stock Camaro battery. None of this lightweight Braille stuff. Getting the blower turning over is noticeable, but fine.

The Wastegate mod is what makes it unique. You can tell from the dyno charts that it is effective. With my newfound torque and a base 3200 stall, the motor's going to rev to 3500 before things get going anyway.

But I'm at 400tq at 3.5k and 500+ after 4k rpms. Pulls hard to 6800/7000, but we might want to pull it back to 6500/6700.

I'd say we're still on the learning curve with how the Wastegate behaves. Perhaps in the future we put an EBC on it and gives us a little more dialability at the track, which is my eventual goal.

Did I mention, all this through JBA Shorties? For the sake of the dyno, we put on JBA catless midpipes, and I'll probably keep them on for the racing season.

Right now, I just need to relearn how to drive the beast.

Oh, and I will be tracking it as soon as a nearby track opens.

Again Congrats did you go with the 4" pulley and the 44mm wastegate?

Yep. Though we used a Turbonetic Wastegate and not the Tial (availability issue only).

We changed springs on the Wastegate from the 8psi to 5psi. The minium boost with the 8psi was like 11.5psi. Using the 5psi gives us a good "bottom" to work from.

An EBC is what I'll need at the track to switch between daily, pump gas, and high octane tunes.

And we didn't see any knock anywhere anytime. So I feel safe.

I'm impressed. Gt9 cam didn't shock me to be worth some ponies. The jba's are interesting for sure. I thought abut keeping my stock manifolds and doing the test pipes they make. Where did you do the gate...down in the bumper on the charge inlet to the fmic?

Yes, the wastegate is on the driver's side, behind/below the foglight. It is easily reachable so we can adjust the screw, which we were able to do on the dyno to make easy adjustments.

I don't imagine I'll be adjusting the Wastegate at the track. Next up will be a Greddy Profec B Spec II in the cabin to adjust on the fly.

It'll be nice at the track: "Hmm, which would I like? 620, 600 or 580?" <Click> Vrooommm...

Looks good. Why two different face gauges?
