Default Vortech SCi trim charger

Just a little teaser here, as it is getting retuned tomorrow.

AP1, Vortech SCi trim charger (the new self-lubricating one). Custom 4.25inch pulley. AEM EMS. 750cc injectors. 4bar MAP sensor. Walbro fuel pump. J's Header. Stock cat. SkunkII exhaust.

Install/tune by Asura with Sideways (Phil) coming to the rescue for a few glitches.

362 WHP 220Tq 10Psi

As far as I know, these are the first real dyno numbers on an AP1.

I swapped out the pulley to a 4" pulley and put the silencers into the skunkII exhaust (it was absolutely deafening before) and am retuning tomorrow. Will post new numbers with the dyno graph and the type of dyno after that.

FYI - if you want to compare this to Kraftwerks. I got the tuner kit from vortech for $3450. The "youtune" kit from Kraftwerks is $5495. Either kit will need injectors and engine management and an upgraded clutch. Power is essentially the same. And I'd probably be 400+hp on Church's dyno w the 4" pulley.

Awesome! Thanks for sharing. Seems like the install would so much easier and faster. Any pictures?

Was the first dyno done at Church's too?

just to clarify a few points.... KW had a sale and the high boost was 5700 and the you tune was like 4300.

Also you made 360 whpo and 220 tq with a j's header and a custom tune. the kw kit on a dynojet with stock everything has put down 355 whp consistently. with a tune juntuned with a header; etc, and a tune has put down 400 at 10 psi. the Kraftwerks kit with a header n exhaust and tune is mroe around 380 whp.

And im not being a fanboy here b.c im the first person always to pick apart kraftwerks

also when comparing the dyno graphs the kraftwerks makes power slightly earlier

the first dyno was NOT at Church's. Asura told me the place but i forgot already. Somewhere in Ontario. So these are real numbers. hah.

Not sure about the overall install. But I had to take it apart and reinstall parts of it myself after a shredded a belt on the drive home from Asura's shop. That's where Phil was such a huge help. Simple little problem that the instruction manual doesn't explain very well and can lead to big problems. But Asura and I wont make that mistake again.

Seems like it's doable in a garage with the right tools, but definately helps to have someone who's done it before with you to catch where the pitfalls are.

Thank you. I'm pretty darn excited. Also excited to see what kinda numbers we get w the 4" pulley and the silencers plugged into the exhaust (hopefully about the same). And yes, I think it WAS Bisimoto. Maybe when everything is done I'll just get on church's dyno just for some magic church numbers. :-)


Totally strange feeling flooring it in 2nd gear and breaking the rear tires loose at 5500rpm

In for pics. I'm very interested in the SCi trim as well. When I was at Vortech I was under the impression I could keep my current snail and just change the guts which would save me from having to plug my pan.

Good numbers btw!

Yes the dyno used to do the tuning was indeed Bisimoto's in Ontario.

Final plots will be posted tomorrow.

how much have you spent so far in addition to the you-tune kit from vortech?
