I can't confirm this, but I THOUGHT I read the bypass valve was controlled by the ECM on the newer cars. I don't know if that's true (I think there is some merit to it, but I'm getting to that), but I know on my '20, there is a set screw that adjusts the bypass valve in the blower, and by adjusting that to close all the way gave me a little more boost pressure. I believe there are still pressure limits the ECM uses to influence the OEM bypass valve, but all I'm saying is that a lot of people before me made sure their valves were adjusted such that they closed all the way, because they picked up boost/power if they were not.

If you need to with that tank of bad gas or god forbid they filled it with 87 octane, dump in a bottle of booster and top it up with 93.
When I picked up my car my salesman took me right over to the 93 pump at the station. I checked my bypass and it appeared to be set up correctly but I'd swear I've seen on this fourm a pic of two and you can tell that it's open or not set up correctly. I had removed that sound plate off the lid and with that opended up you can see the butterfly and easily set that up, if you need to. |

Thanks guys! Lots of good info. I did a little research and it looks like my coolant tank is a little low so I will top that off and bleed the supercharger system. I assume that system is under more pressure the hotter it is? Should I bleed it while the engine/coolant/SC temps are cool (like you would with a regular cooling system) or should I do it when the car is warmed up or even hot to create the pressure to bleed/burp the system?

Doesn't really matter when you bleed it. What matters most is all the air being out of the system. Whenever the intercooler pump sees air it stops. You want to make sure that there is constant coolant flowing to the pump and no air pockets

The ZL1 has no factory tank for the supercharger coolant. There is a method to bleed the supercharger intercooler and if you search YouTube (or on here) for ZL1 supercharger bleeding, you'll find methods that will work. I would recommend buying an actual reservoir from a vendor so that you'll never have to worry about air being in the system as it'll get the air out for you while you drive. I have an ADM reservoir and have had 0 problems with it. But there are a handful out there to choose from but I think this one is the most simple and not that big while being very easy to install. |

I would go do some 50 to 120 pulls on the freeway. See how it runs. I never followed the 500 mile break in. I ran it hard from the Dealership Day 1.

Display the boost gauge on the instrument cluster jut to see how much boost it’s making if you haven’t already checked

150 miles? Dealer filled my car with regular. Might be that simple.

There isn't a S/C coolant reservoir from the factory.
