What are you going to do for wheels and tires, King? I'm trying to decide between 1LE and ZL1-1LE fitment.

EDFHOBBIES · 01-25-2019, 09:56 AM

Do you have any numbers on 93.. wanted to what a $1500 pump and $375 flex kit would give me..

Not sure yet...depends on how it hooks with my PVD coated stockers running the 305/35/20 555r. Might do a Forgestar 18x5 17x10 setup.

No I don't...it's been on E85 for a while. I know Brett(Pray performance) Just did a Whipple @ 9psi on 93 octane and it made 586/550 with a manual M6 car with LT4 fuel system. Keep in mind mine was done in 5th gear so the numbers would be 25-30 higher in the 1:1 6th gear. E75-80 should add a good 50whp over 93 if you have the fuel system to support it. We really only need to run E50-E60 to get all the benefits of it. I just had it in my mind that I wanted to pull up to the pump and not have to worry about mixing.

Based on my research and what my car did. The LT4 injectors, LPE DI pump, and ZL1 low side with JMS is good to 8-9 psi with E80 without needing a Cam. With E50-60 10-11psi maybe possible. I might venture down that road and see if I can go to a 3.25 and mix down to E60 next season.

Weather forecasters are calling for some of the coldest air in recorded history next week, so the car wont be coming out for a good while. Next Wednesday shows -6 for a high and -16 for a low not factoring wind chill.

So possibly a DSX low side, lt4 injectors, and the LPE pump may run e85 pump?

Are 305's compatible with stock 9.5 inch wheels?

Yea if your pump E85 is less then 80% you should squeak by. Mine is normally around 78%, but my tuner kept increasing Ethanol percentage until the pressure started to drop which was @ E80. My low side has room left to go further, the High side is maxed. I will have to mix lower if I want to up the boost any further.

I put them on back in October and have not had any issues other then I had to relocate the harness on driver side. With bolt-ons and E85 I was pulling 3.4-3.5 0-60 on 47 degree roads. Past experience with tire and wheel ratings is you can normally go one size out side of the manufacturer specs with no issues.

That is awesome! Congrats.

Here is a pic of a 2019 SS A10 that received a Maggie next to my car.

KingLT1 · 02-02-2019, 09:15 PM

Anybody with a Whipple have excess noise when at idle? Tuner said it's not uncommon but damn it seems loud to me.

I know zip about S/C. But that does NOT sound normal. It is louder than your exhaust.

KingLT1 · 02-02-2019, 11:31 PM

Yea... Odd that sound goes away with just a slight rpm increase.
