Very nice work. Look forward to seeing some more results.

You guys are just 20 min. from my house, I need to come and if you can beef up my Edelbrock E-Force tune. Would be nice to know how much power the canned Edelbrocks tune is putting out.

Any news on this kit?

Ian SS · 10-02-2016, 04:10 PM

Thought they were going to give production and pricing info back in July, its been a while.

I guess this is dead.

We are using a custom manifold on one side and a stock manifold on the other.

Wouldn't that affect tune etc running a better flowing manifold on one side of the motor/bank and the other far more restrictive??

No. the turbo is the greatest restriction so it ends up being equal for both banks.

How's that? I've seen in the past where bad flowing manifold has lead to high egts etc, causing some cylinders to run lean and go crazy on knock.. if you gonna swap manifolds just do both I find it half ass to have one better flowing and running a OEM manifold lol.. like running one long tube header with the other being OEM.. foolish..

I would agree with this but doesnt the lt1 already use a tubular style manifold? I ran the on3 kit on my 5th gen 1le and it used a similar design except the ls3 manifold was a lot more restrictive. I would think this kit would be better designed. On a side note, how do you like the charger hellcat? Ive had mine for about 3 months and have been fighting a cel for fuel pressure for a month now. '15 charger.

It isn't uncommon to have a plan 2-1 pressure ratio with a basic turbo kit. That means at 8psi of boost there will likely be 16psi of pressure in the manifolds pre turbo. All they have to do is direct the exhaust gases to the turbo. There is no scavenging or anything special going on. I have made over 1000rwhp on a similar set up. Stock manifold feeding into the back of a log feeding into the turbo(pt88). Nothing seemed optimal but it worked fine.

You can spend days trying to optimize a kit but in the end you use what fits and guess what, It works.

I've never had any issues with the fuel or cel. Have you taken it to dealership?

He's 110% correct..

This was the set up on my GTO.. ran 9's drove it everywhere ,put over 30,000 miles on it with out any issues..
