This just in: A lower engine package I put together for a customer this fall based largely on what I built for myself just put down 950 RWHP with a STOCK Paxton kit, heads, Cam, fuel system, valvetrain w/paxton boosters. This is by far the most ANYONE has gotten out of a Stock Engine/Stock Paxton/Built Bottom End configuration… Almost 100 RWHP more!
Apparently I did a pretty good job at building an efficient lower end? And the only reason it didnt make more was it ran out of fuel system!
93 octane Pump Gas to boot! NO DETONATION, even when it went lean!
I was going to dub this summers temporary SC package the VS-1000SC… looks like I’ll have to raise my own bar…?
Sorry about that guys, I was on my way out the door when I posted.
Peak Horsepower was ~950 @ 5800
Peak Torque was ~885 @ 4700
Peak Boost was teetering between 14 and 15 PSI before it was shutdown due to going lean
According to the tuner who did the tuning, it is by far the highest horsepower he has seen yet for the given mod set, and this car gained over 100 to the wheels since it was tuned last year on the stock bottom end. I put a few “tricks” into the bottom end of that car, and they paid off BIG TIME with regards to efficiency, ability to run extremely advanced timing (for an FI car at least), and resistance to detonation. He is trying to convince the owner into a fuel system and some minor headwork, hoping to see well over 1000 to the wheels on the next go around.
He also said he is guessing that car would be putting down about 1150-1200 horspower in a Twin Turbo configuration at the same boost, assuming it wasnt choked too much by the lack of headwork.
