its the only thing i have not broken

I just found this thread and all I can say is wow! This is going to be one hell of a cool car when it's all said and done with.

on the dyno with the old ls3, the supercharger made 14.5 psi. now with the lsx-454 it is just under ten pounds of boost. now we gotta pully down the lsx-454 to pump up the boost to at least where it was to make some good numbers.

Man this car is just sick!!!

[Gavros 4 Life]

we need a new name for this car my friend for its not longer a camaro hahahaha

[Supercharged SS]

I say the new name should be........
"Still slower than Jamie!"

[Eric Baker]

OK so we know the initial boost number, but any initial HP numbers?

I aint a fan of belt driven centrifugals but hey to each his own. I would move the meth nozzle as well. If this doesn’t put at least 800 to the wheels I will and I think the car owner will be disappointed.

Just my .02

i requested the meth nozzle in that location, i think it looks mean.
if i'm anywhere near 800 at the wheels, it comes apart to remedy the low horsepower.

Well I don’t mean to hurt your feelings but the meth isn’t there for looks. I am hoping you are being facetious. In our testing we found ideally we want it to spray directly at the throttle body and usually just north of the throttle shaft. Other thing I see that may be a problem is your maf sensor being close to it. I don’t know what spray pattern you have coming out of yours. But the nozzles we use would have definitely caused an issue on your setup.

your comment would have been better appreciated without your condescending first sentence.
thanks for your opinion, but i'm very pleased with the car the way it is and where the meth nozzle is, as i chose its location. i have the very best team (Jannetty Racing) accommodating my requests and making the best of my sometimes unconventional propensities.
we build our cars the way we want them. such as the cam i chose for the stock ls3 motor. it was a normally aspirated cam that had a vicious lope to it. it may have made less horsepower than with a supercharger cam, but the lope is what i wanted and jannetty racing was still able to coax 752 rear wheel horsepower out of it. i design the build that makes me happy, not others.

roflmao, If my first sentence comes off as condescending then it seems making power is your second goal and product placement albeit for looks is your first. Good Luck
