One more quick question. What do I gap them to? Does the N/A and FI setup use different gaps?

 

I agree, go with the vortech. I got 355hp with vortech & ems.

 

CTSC used is around 2500, VT is ????

 

about 2500-3000 with aftercooler.

If you buy used, be ready for a rebuild (regardless of brand/kit) because you never know how the previous owner took care of their charger.

I would prefer the VT because CT shut down once already. You might have a hard time finding parts. If you get the older kit the brackets break, If you get the older kit it uses a Novi 1000, and the CT doesn't always have a aftercooler.

Just my reasons why I would buy a VT over a CT. your call, GL.

 

Probably gap around .032-.034. That's about where I am.

 

Yeah that should be fine, I think I am at 032. Stock I think is 034.-036 but the idea from what I have learned is as you introduce more fuel into the combuston chamber you need to reduce the gap to keep the spark concentrated enough to burn the added fuel requirments. Generally as your fuel/power goes up you reduce spark gap accordingly as well as heat range.

 

Well i got the Vortech Stock Supercharger system with aftercooler and I Have the ACT street clutch and I luv the car. I am putting down 309 whp, Here is my dyno! Now mind you I DO NOT have a AEM EMS.


1 Month after this dyno I got a exhaust, test pipe and header installed and it felt faster , have not gotten it on the dyno but i'm guessing around 320 to 330 at the wheels.

 

any chance you will be visiting a dynojet dyno in the near future?

 

I doubt it as my car is in storage for the winter, but that is on the top of my to do list next season for sure!
I have all ready started buying the components for 14psi of boost, I have the pulley 3.9" all ready.

 

cool. ps, i dig the color

14psi will be tons of fun. i should be at 8psi in the upcoming weeks.
