2012 V6 Supercharger

[Beau0311]

I have a 2012 V6 2LS Camaro. I have a K&N intake (which had to be modified because the air sensor is different than 2010-11) and a magnaflow axle back system installed. I wanted to install a supercharger and wanted some advice/opinions (other than trade in for SS lol) I got my 2012 camaro brand new for 20k so with a supercharger id still have less money in than SS and equal horsepower. Its really just for the street. This is the kit i was looking at (http://www.superchargersonline.com/i...oducts_id=7422)

But I don't know that there is a Supercharger for the 2012 yet

The IPF supercharger is for the 2011, 2011, and 2012. Look a little lower in the threads and its there. Also, I know that tracy (screenname SC2150) will work with you... I believe. Not too sure about that one.

I am also looking at ipf. Seems to be better option as far as tuning

IPF has kits for the 2010-11 LLT motor as well as the 2012 LFX motor. The car in our video is our 2012 demonstrator.

To view the car in action, you can view our latest video by following the link below:

We can do it installed turnkey, and the RX system includes digital boost guage & guage pod, the RX dual valve oil separating crankcase evacuation system (the only system for the FI 3.6 DI motor that provides proper crankcase evacuation during boost and non-boost operation. This is a known issue when FI this motor), and a dedicated separate drive pulley/belt/tensioner so the SC is not adding more stress to the current belt already running the AC/power steering/water pump/altenator and in the event the sc belt would fail, you can still drive with all systems still working except the SC.

Let us know if you need more info. Systems have been shipping already and we can slot you in for the complete install, tuned turn-key.

We also have the higher output high pressure DI fuel pump needed for power over 400 rwhp.

Do you work with any shops in Southern California for installs? LONGGGGG drive to FL

Hello, have you installed a system on a 2012 yet? Just out of curiosity, how do you know that your crankcase vent system is the only one that provides proper crankcase venting? Have you seen the other systems or are you just speculating? I am not being critical I am just curious. Also do you have any real world results from your supercharger system? 1/4 mile times, etc? Lastly, with a fixed boost supercharger System, what is the need for a boost gauge. Thank you for the info.

We are doing them on LFX motors in several platforms....and no one in the country has done more R&D on these motors and the systems period. As far as the crankcase evac that is a fact.....do some searches here to see. If you think my statement is incorrect then show me another that actually does and explain how. There are dozens of threads here that explain it in detail, and ask any of the other FI shops from East Coast Super charging to RDP or any of the many STS kit owners that have had to retrofit theirs.

We are without question the foremost experts on proper crankcase evacuation on street car applications and have developed more products, done more R&D on the LLT & LFX motors. But please post details on how any other system accomplishes what we do.......best way for you to learn is go into details.

You can do a 2012? Do you offer a warranty? Do you have a dyno or track times? Please answer.

Thanks

Thank you for the details but You didn't answer my other questions. Do you have any real world data from your "several platform" systems on the LFX engine? Any dyno data, videos of the car in action or 1/4 mile data? Just curious.

If you have a LFX V6 your car year is wrong , It's misleading!

I don't think he has the LFX, he said he's just curious.

Gotta love these IPF groupies.

Not a groupie, just trying to make a decision on what to do. So far IPF is the only one that I have seen any numbers on. Everyone else always says they are going to post numbers, and it is either raining or the dyno is down or busy.
If someone is going to spend close to $6,000 they should be able to count on real world numbers not just talk.


Thanks, just trying to figure this out now that there are multiple choices. The only one I can get answers on is IPF.

[SIXJAK]

I am going with RX. Within 6 weeks there should be a total of 3 RX SC cars on the road. Terrorizing Mustangs, Challys, SS's and even those wallflower GTO's.

We'll see where IPF is at in the same amount of time. I think it's great that you have at least 2 companies competing for the Gen5 V6 SC business. Both companies have put in a ton of work based off of ppl saying they really want an SC. Well they're here.

I don't have an LFX. I currently own a 2010 LLT. I have an opportunity to trade my 2010 on a 2012 but before I do, I want to see what my options are. I know RX has a system for the LLT, I was just curious where they stand on the on the LFX. I want to go FI and had made a decision to purchase the IPF system. Then this LFX deal came up so now I am am seeing what my options are. I am located less than 500 miles from AZ so my logical choice would be IPF. I didnt know that these questions would cause so much drama. Jeeeeeezzzzzzzz

I think everyone is a bit confused. Your avatar has an SS facia, you state 2010 but you are asking about the LFX. Now you are saying you want to trade for a 2102 and then supercharge it. Why not just stick with the LLT and mod it? Seems like it would be cheaper.

[Can't_C_Me]

Also LLT has more support and potential than the LFX because of the header deal. LFX is easier to tune and runs alil better but that's it.

Also IPF is only going to get buys from stock new V6's owners not fully in the know (exhaust doesn't count as no power is really gained also intake because you will lose it). All the hardcore owners willing to go FI have supporting mods that IPF doesn't support.

How about staying on point. So the ..... what if someone does not own a 2012. Do you need to call someone a groupie for asking a pointed question? What confuses me is why if some one asks a question about RX the same people have to rip them apart.
I admit that I also wonder about the same questions asked. Glad I did not ask them or maybe I would be treated the same way.

There you go. Now I have bowtie avatar. I didn't know I had to give a blood sample to post questions up here LOL. Why not sell your car and buy a charger. J/k. I can get the LFX for a good deal, it has 30000 less miles than my 2010 and it is 2 years newer. GM did a bunch of changes to the heads and internals to the LFX and it seems like it may be the right move FOR ME. :flag2:

I agree. Sorry OP for the thread hijack

You indicated earlier that you were just asking questions. We are basically asking questions to figure out where you are coming from because it didn't make sense to us. So, it goes both ways. No I see more of your logic. Sounds good to me. Maybe you can be the first to get the supercharger on an LFX and let us know.
