Hey hey guys, here is the graph, still a bit of tuning to do, I could take it up to 6700 or so or 7K and make another 14hp or so and do above 560, but I think I'll keep it safe for now.

So who thinks I'll need a new tranny soon? According to paulie I have around 15K miles which is about 2 years the amount I drive, so should be good for a while I guess.

A tranny ain't gonna make me any faster right? Just allow me to put more power to it and be safer eh?

I guess if it was less parasitic loss and would get more to the ground and shift harder and faster I would go for the whole new tranny, flexplate, billet tc set up.

So what do you guys think? Am I gonna fry my top land rings?

Oh, also, does anyone know the filter part number for the KN filter that comes with the Vortech kit? I am wondering about possibly trying to get a bit bigger one handle all my potential cfm's better. Also, in Seattle I think it a good idea to get a filter wrap pretty soon, so I need to figure out what filter I am going to stick with so I can get under my ride and take car of the final details.

Glad You Got It All Figured Out......

Yeah, pretty stoked!!

Oh, and the injectors we went with actually wound up flowing 850cc/min, Johan was like wtf? So we got all tuned in and as you can see at 6500 it winds up dropping down to 11.00 at the very end with 11.5 almost all the way through, and 12 plus at idle..

Did you get the upgraded belt tensioner the vortec guys on here were talking about?
Are you stock bottom end?
Is that rear wheel hp?

Nice graph!! Not running out of fuel thats good!!

IIRC, grip put on a larger intake filter, quick search should find it.

I think it is a good idea to get a new tranny but some people are stubborn like me. I am still running on a stock tranny with 36k miles and running in the 11's strong with no problems.

Belt tensioner? I though it came with all that in the kit, and I an running the UD pulley from Bwoody.

I guess I'll search around for the larger filter thread.

**jhriss** · #9 12-18-2009, 08:38 PM

Yes that is rear wheel hp.

New belt tensioner (Dayco) for the win!
