Yep, I really only DD this car. It's actually never been down the Dragstrip.
I used to go to the Dragstrip a few times a year with previous cars, but age, kids, work, and busy schedules have made it much less of a priority to me than it was years back.

1. What supercharger do you have?
2. Why did you choose it?
3. What you like most about it?
4. What you dislike most about it?
5. Do you Mainly daily drive or track it?

As an FYI I am leaning toward ProCharger.
procharger d-1

for the mid to hi range power

i like that when you hit the gas in 1st you really dont spin and then the power comes on and keeps going hard in the high rpm range.

nothing

i daily it and love the whine of the procharger ppl can hear me coming from down the street lol.....

I have the E-Force installed on mine, and it's a great daily driver. Never had it to track either. Running canned tune and is running very well. When warranty expires I will have it re-tuned to gain a more but safe H/P level.

Figured as much. Just thought I would ask. I don't think I'm going to add anymore after the supercharger but the D1SC might be a better choice just in case I change my mind. Once I make up my mind.

As an FYI I am leaning toward ProCharger.
1. Eldelbrock eforce : although the ls3 one was limited to about 750 to 800 rwhp it. It never ever gave 1 problem and is designed to be as close to a stock setup 50 state legal..

2. The blower and motor is covered by eldelbrock warranty no other sc companies cover your motor.

3. Instant power and more torque from there longer intake runner design.

4. Small coolant fill reservoir, hard to get the air out of system as a dyi guy, but a shop will have a vacuum tool.
A larger reservoir in trunk and extra pump will sure cure this. All top mounted blowers experience this.

5. Daily driver.. tune is perfect no idle surging doesn't even act if you have a blower until you step on the gas..

Was getting 26.3 miles to gallon hwy now 24.8.

I since then went TT on my LS3 and sold my eforce to a friend most I could get out of mine was 625 on mustang with 3.0 pulley he now has a 2.75 and 10% overdrive on e85. He's past the 700 range.. I wish I would of kept the eforce even though I'll make 1000 plus soon.

All girls garage did our install here is the video.. we been fortunate to have our car as an ad car for eforce, test car for Borla and some other things.. but when you have car 27 it opens a lot doors when you contact venders. My wife's car is the 16 and Borla also gave us headers so they wI'll be put on in 2 days.. I plan on dyno it as is stock eforce.. then tune, then headers and tune. Hopefully I can give yall some numbers. I know on my 5th gen we picked up 70 rwhp but that tune was just to get you to the tuner this time you could live with as it states 580 rwhp. I'm sure it was a cool California low humid day or were ever the dynoed. I'm in texas hot and very humid like equator humid in houston. So I expect 550 to 560..
