Re: 5,3 with Supercharger

i was wondering when someone would throw one on..

thatd be fun in a RCSB with a 6speed

 

Why bother with the TVS1900? Why not go with the TVS2300?

 

So I did the numbers figuring a 15% drivetrain loss!

STOCK Flywheel
300 HP
320 TQ

TVS1900
435.39 HP Flywheel
424.8 TQ Flywheel

So an improvement of 135hp and 104ftlb with the tune, not to shabby!

$5950/135HP = $44.07 per 1 HP

Price per power ratio is pretty damn good!

 

First of all this is pretty fricken sweet! Glad someone has done it. I've thought about selling my truck to do the same, now that there is a kit it is even more tempting...the problem is I like the xtreme body kit too much and since I already have a high performance toy I don't really need a high performance daily. Not counting the loss I'd take to get there...

Second, why do I get ragged on so much for the cost of my system when I got a better $/HP than this?!

Same assumptions and math:
3.5L Stock
220HP Flywheel

S/C 3.5L (W2W - <$6000 installed)
306 WHP = 360 Flywheel

$6000/140HP = $42.86 per 1 HP

That's not pointed at you specifically 1BADI5. Thanks for sharing this.

 

2300 would be too much on a stock motor from what im lead to believe

I want to build a 408lsx with a 2300 for my S10

 

You can get the 2300 for the GMT900s :shrug: It all comes down to tuning in the end!

 

i think alot more is in it, if it had a smaller pulley to up the boost. that dyno was at 6psi

 

and we ALL know the LS motors can handle a fuck load of boost :lol:

 

getting it and it being the right application are 2 diff things..


I can put a 90mm turbo on the colorado but it wouldnt be worth shit :lol:

the right charger for the right application is whats its about...








... im also talking out of my ass cause im bored I have no idea lol

 

I think that the 2300 on a stock 5.3 would be asking for trouble. If you beefed up the internals its a different story. Also, the smaller charger should have less parasitic loss.

Either way, nearly 450hp in these trucks is awesome. That could easily reach 500hp with the right tune and supporting parts.

 

Pulley, a few safety mods like water injection, fuel upgrades, and a new tune... 450+whp wut?

 

Damn Jody, post whoring it up this morning huh? J/K I know what you mean.

 

10 minutes after trying to post, my post didn't show up, even when browsing through the site further. I close down for the night, open it back up and look. I made 10 posts that weren't there last night.

Whoever is hosting this site has some fuuuuuucked up db update caching software.

 

Damn, don't show me this. Now I want one.
