Just ordered my Procharger! Now what?

American thunda · 04-21-2022, 12:23 PM

Hey guys kinda been lurking on the forum for a while. Well I just took the plunge and ordered my kit. I ordered the P1x with the stage 2 IC. I plan on running this car on a Meth kit. Thinking about going with a Snow kit. I would like not to do any other fueling mods at this time. My question is what else will I need? Im getting a wideband, Dsx baro break out,colder plugs,colder t stat and Headers. What am I missing? Im gonna be tuning this as well. Thanks

If/when the meth system fails, your engine will be destroyed. There is uneven meth distribution issues as well, cylinder #7 seems to go out on meth dependant set ups. You may want to consider upgrading to at least an LT4 fuel system and skipping the meth or do both. Most blown up supercharged LT1 engines happen because the owner failed to upgrade the fuel system for the increased fuel demands AND octane demands.

I agree with 1LEornothing, this adds a continuous high risk component when you can achieve very good results with a properly upgraded fuel system, injectors and/or ethanol.

Not sure why you would want to skimp on the most fundamental component of a reliable build ("I would like not to do any other fueling mods at this time").

I'd advise the OP to do a bunch of reading on this board about forced induction LT1s and fueling...and lack of octane...

Order your new pistons now.

Kidding aside... fueling install was pretty easy to do dsx and lt4 high side. LMK if you have any questions.

These are the components you will need, all OEM fuel system parts except for the voltage booster which every forced induction car should have
https://jannettyracing.com/products/...2018-camaro-ss

Also will need this https://jannettyracing.com/products/...ness-for-gen-v

And this https://jannettyracing.com/products/...bar-map-sensor

And these https://jannettyracing.com/products/...s-heat-range-6

Then a quality custom tune here https://jannettyracing.com/products/...cadillac-cts-v

Any questions call 203-753-7223

Pistons and/or a new block.

I would advise purchasing new high pressure fuel lines when if you change injectors and HPFP. Get the LT4 inlet and outlet feed lines. Doesn't hurt to change the cross over line too.
