MAT being what it is, with a cursory review, 1.4G/cyl is hauling the mail vs 1.29 @ similar RPM (actually less).
Not being familiar with the centri intercooler nomenclature is that still an A2A? If so an an A2L would change those numbers provided the IC block & cooling circuit was adequate. Then again there’s always the killer chiller for the PD. Add: I never really paid attention to the compressor efficiency of a centri vs a PD as I understand a linear rate centri compressor map highly relies on not only pressure ratio, but also engine RPM (translated to compressor RPM), while at the same time a PD does as well, but a PD holds an tangible advantage as fluid density increases. |

Love this thread
I appreciate real world data Several have shared some here Very interesting Heat soak is our biggest enemy

The P1x definitely builds boost with RPM but the Whipple also has a linear rising boost curve just not as dramatic. The P1x is around 5psi @ 4500rpm and ends up at 9.5psi @ 6600 rpm. The Whipple is around 7psi and ends up around 9.5psi. I believe all that means is the Whipple is not being spun hard. From what I see The P1 kits coming from Procharger are already being driven near peak efficiency, where the Whipple/Magnuson stuff has a lot of room to grow. Now that does not mean the P1x won't go further. I believe Dan Hacker has taken one to 800whp and mid 9 second passes with Meth and E...but the Meth is improving efficiency dramatically on the P1x. I would love to see some logs of a D1x or Paxton 1500/2200. There was a post of FB lastnight about P1 stuff that stirred some debate and exactly why I wanted to start this thread to show some actual real world data.

King could share one of my logs if he wants. I think my car pulls 1.5-6g/cyl. It might not help this thread though because it’s a CAMARO forum. My MATs are 130 the first pull then the motor heat soaks the blower and raises to 160’s in the heat and holds there. The blower is able to maintain whatever the MAT is at the start of the pull. This is in 85-90 degree weather. I’m sure the secondary radiator will help. 15-18’ M7’s didn’t come with it from the factory.

I don't have logs saved of the 2650 setup in the heat. I do have some of the 2300 I can post later.

Does the ProCharger setup see higher temps because the intake is located right above the driver's side exhaust manifold?

I believe it's only going to pull hot air off the exhaust when sitting still. When you are driving a lot of ambient air gets pushed into the engine bay and it is reaching the filter. The log data I posted kind of reflects this because when cruising down the hwy @ 50mph the MAT are only about +20 over ambient. Either way I would still prefer air entering the filter directly from the grill just like NA or PD setups but I doubt it will make a huge difference.

I'd also add that the OEM's went to fresh air intake as standard in the late 70's for a reason.

Agree but I doubt you will be able to make a lot of power with that kit since it's a single belt design...belt slip will likely be a issue turned up being it's a 6 rib that is turning all the accessories and supercharger. For those looking for <600hp power it might be the way to go.
If I was looking at entry level Centri kits I would probably go ECS. 5500.00 and you get a head unit more comparable to a D1 procharger along with the upgraded IC. The air filter still isn't ideal but it comes with a heat shield and I like that it still allows access to the oil fil.

Shared 6-Rib is exactly my area of concern, WHP, not so much, since I am looking at 93 pump and not going above ~ 560-580 max. Not sure why this guy had struggled so much with the install, when it is supposed to be a relatively straight forward job Link to my thread: https://www.camaro6.com/forums/showthread.php?t=595723 |

https://www.procharger.com/automotiv...maro-ss-lt1-eo Personally, I am trying to research as much as possible regarding such option: Why? Because of its stock-like appearance in the engine bay and relative ease of installation. Possibly because of the overall (subjective) merits of a Centri based solution as well. |

The normal Procharger (and the Vortech/Paxton) kits taking air inside the engine bay, as KingLT1 theorized correctly IMO, do work better when the car is actually driving than initial thought makes it seem. I would have preferred taking air from the grille/headlight (I had a Paxton before), but the improvement in IAT probably would not have been huge when driving. |

If the shared belt setup is able to handle the necessary boost without slipping or tearing (6 rib, remember! not 8 or 10) - Then this might prove to be a viable solution for those who require a CARB compliant solution, or people like myself, who simply require the engine bay to appear as stock-like as possible. Another question I would like to get an answer to (but believe that it should be possible): Opting for the Stage 2 Intercooler in conjunction with this kit - possible in terms of charge pipe directions and bends? |
