The hole isn't too big. I haven't seen any issues yet. I'm gonna be seeing some corvette guys in my area tonight about a solution for that while I have it parked at work.

Just my opinion but I think the COPO hood would look a lot better, especially when you show up to car shows and pop that hood.

Hi !

Interesting construction and a very nice build ... !!

is it possible to see ALL data in the power graph ? like AFR , Ign advance boost ect...

possible that the connector between roots blower and engine is causing the bad air flow to the engine ?

is the roots blower big enough for that LFX engine ??

With that kind of power down low who cares if it falls apart on top. I like the sounds of only six psi. Seams nice and safe after seeing gretchens come apart.

I am interested in seeing this get dialed in at the lower 6psi before you go crazy at 10. I think a nice bolt on canned tune unit that makes respectable numbers would be a good move for rx. Sadly with rx being sort of a full on custom shop most of his customers go big which takes guys like me right out of the market. Mines gotta run every day and hold together.

Still saving for the sc or v8 but that day will come and I love this top mount.

If trifecta still can't tune the centrifugal sc on the LLT properly, what makes anyone think this will be more successful? Going from what I've read on here sounds like a bit of an issue.

We all know the LLT has tuning issues, but as far as I know Trifecta still hasn't gotten a hold of the LLT model yet. Let's not judge them before we see what they can come up with. They might surprise all of us.

It definitely needs to run good on top...can't just let that slide and not run past 5K rpms ever.

But yes I agree...dial it in at 6 before trying to push further.

This is an LFX with a different ECM than the LLT, so that changes things with this car. It will be interesting to see what happens with the LLT car.

Yeah I know about the LFX, just saying in regards to the LLT.

I am so looking forward to this!!!

RX, this is some really nasty stuff.. (in a good way)

(the tracy thumbs up)

I will deff, keep an eye out for reviews and if all works out I may be getting a tan next year.

Mother of physco.... RX then IPF then RX.... mother of decision...

I wonder if anybody with a centerfuge will say I want a roots...

Only time will tell.

lscamaro · 06-27-2013, 02:13 PM

Maybe if it works on the LLT. Being that the centri tune isn't fully dialed in and has taken this long, and a roots is harder to tune, only time will tell is right
