Look at the TVS2300 kits on the LS3. 700-750 at the crank is no issue, but they're no longer running a stock pulley on 6-7psi.

The warranty is through the supercharger manufacture. Good luck getting a new motor if you pop yours on the kit you installed yourself, have a custom tune on or have increased the boost for.

You're comparing apples to oranges man.

Call whipple and get the details on their kit for the 2015 mustang.

I pay enough in taxes to motivate me in making sure cheats are handled accordingly.

In my opinion, it is the government that cheats it's citizens. Those who find a way to get around the system are only being cheated less.

The way I read it, you're saying (again, in my humble opinion):

The government steals enough from me via taxes to motivate me in making sure other people get ripped off just the same.

But, this is probably a political discussion that really doesn't belong on this forum.

Superchargers, though, those are cool, I'm sure you agree.

the coyote has more potential due to it´s 4valve/cyl. and 4 VVT cams. I would like to see gasflow rates of that engine compared to a LT1.

From what I understand, a smaller bore requires more valves in order to get the same airflow:displacement ratio as a larger bore engine with single intake and exhaust valves. Edit: This may not be true, depending on the valve curtain size.

When it comes to the dohc and cam chain, I can't help but wonder if that added rotational mass actually eats some horsepower vs a pushrod engine.


Now, the added benefit of being able to adjust cam phase independently from intake/exhaust may make up for all of that, and provide better hp with more controllable emissions. I mean, there's a reason companies like AMG are putting 4-valve, DOHC large-displacement V8s in their vehicles, and I don't think it's just to increase the redline.

So no one really has to suck any D, just have to know more than just pushing papers in an office.

I was clearly being somewhat playful in my response....but thanks for being a complete tool and just so you know....I've active Army and spent 10 years in a combat MOS, now working in logistics for 5 years.

NOW you can eat a D. *facepalm

Thought this might be interesting to some: http://www.hennesseyperformance.com/2016-camaro-ss.html

It has been posted about before.

This went downhill quick lol

Well, we've done kits for the C7 with the LT1 and the LT4 and they make plenty of power. I don't think it'll be an issue once the Gen6 shows up.

my 14 1LE has a cam ARH long tubes -good push rods and valve springs HV oil pump ECS novi 1500 blower and ALKY control Meth kit ..it made 474/434 on MD dyno before the blower it now makes 801/648 on 14psi that is 326 RWHP gain with the blower and 214ft lbs tq ...this same kit is on the shops car that is a 15 C7 corvette A8 making 800rwhp thru the auto and is an LT1 8spd car and has been 9.7 147mph ,so if i get a new a8 camaro ss it will get an ECS kit with Alky and a tune with long tubes /and no cam this time for stealth and drivability should lay down 740rwhp on 12psi ..thats my plan !!!

jesus christ the amount of butthurt over useless talk in this thread. I see sarcasm left and right and it takes not even a second for people to get offended and start crying. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANYWAY, How fast do you guys think we will see some TT setups for this car? And by who?

Hennessy has two packages they advertise for 2016 camaro ss, one is 600, the other is 650.... whipple superchargers are good too, oddly enough that's my last name but I see no checks,lol

You can get the same work done much cheaper at another reputable shop. They want 15-16K for the 600 package. I already asked them.

[asimpleguy]

Youre right, you can get the same work done elsewhere but from what ive seen the hennessey name retains the value of the car. People (that can afford it) will pay for the work hennessey puts into their cars. I still dont agree with their pricing regardless. Just my 2 cents
