2016 2SS A8 Pray Ported TB/IM, P-1X Helical cut, Stage II Intercooler, std bypass valve, Pulley 3.9. I'm at 4500' Altitude. Tuner said he saw 9lbs of boost. Car drives good. No"surging" that some had mentioned in another thread. Haven't really got to open it up yet ..maybe just about a 4sec burst..with 1 shift. Hella traffic on the way home. Does the TQ seem a little low?
585RWHP
483RWTQ

He may have your timing flat down low. You have to reverse your timing curve, run a N/A timing curve to begin with and then decrease it as the boost goes up.

I am surprised that a respected shop like JDP would give you a dyno sheet with 'time' instead of 'rpm' as the lower axis. If it was my car I would ask for a sheet based on rpm, like it should be.

Torque does seem a little low but like the above said I’m surprised they didn’t show RPM. The HP seems about right though if I’m the stock fuel system. Do you plan on upgrading the fuel system? My last car was close to this completely stock with only the P1SC-1 with race IC system, with a little less boost, that’s why I ask. My last car was an M6 though.

No, I don't plan on upgrading the fuel system. At least not not in the near future. Maybe a Meth kit for cooling. The shop recommends the Alky Control Meth kit, but then I'd lose my wiper washer fluid. So I'd like a kit that has it's own container.

I told the shop when they ordered the kit that I wanted at least 550RWHP. So they in turn inform Procharger of what I want and give them our altitude, and Procharger specs out the kit. So I guess they figured I'd need the 3.9 pulley to get what I wanted.

Can this be done after the fact?

Yes, all they need to do is open up your runfile in Dynojet's software and choose the lower axis as 'rpm' instead of 'time'.

As far as the 'not out of fuel' question, the answer as to why is quite simple. This run was at a higher altitude and the car was actually producing 491hp (585 divided by the 1.19 correction factor gives the actual power). That is why the fuel system was not yet taxed, it wasn't actually using 585hp worth of fuel. If he drove this car to low altitude though, then I think that the stock fuel system would probably be inadequate with that pulley and sea level atmospherics.

Thank you very much for that info.

Not to shabby! You running 93 octane?

thanks. Here in Utah I can't find 93...just 91. But I think 91 at altitude is equivalent to 93 at sea level. Not really sure...I read it somewhere.

If the tach pick up lost signal, people often just use "time" to fix that.
Not saying thats the case here, but thats common.

Thats awesome numbers for 91!!!

It’s funny because you are one of the ONLY people on here that had problems with this kit. If you had problems because of your elevation / heat and you think it’s directly related to the design of this kit, I would love to see how bad it would be with a PD blower, considering those are the ones people are saying has heat soak issues and higher IAT’s. I just recently posted a picture of a log in another thread. It was 96 degrees, high humidity, and at WOT 6500+ RPM it was like 4 degrees over ambient temp. Maybe it was your tune?

Also you seem very upset about whatever happened, since you took the time to copy and paste your negative comment in all of the procharger threads AND make your signature say the same thing. However as one of the many people who love this kit in their car, I’ll be sure to also copy and paste so anyone reading it knows that you are one of the only people on here and the Vette forums that are bashing a good quality company (probably due to an installation or tuning mishap). Maybe stick to your “quality” German engineered garbage and leave the American muscle to us.

Well said and totally true have had Procharger’s on several cars over the years fantastic systems first class customer support and quality product LOL at the German engineering comment

I am on a D1SC with the upgraded Race IC and even with the 100° Oklahoma heat and even the 105° Dallas heat my car only saw 10° over the ambient temps when I was driving it back forth.
