Awesome presentation bro, hard to beat this weight/pwr ratio. Used to have a yellow 02 A&A that made 611 rwhp and my 17 Z07 Gs feel slow.. Currently resuscitated an abandoned and forgotten Pewter y2k FRC that I built up myself and believe its hitting mid 4s on dyno. The biggest problem with these blower cars is traction.... Awesome brakes btw.
Another Sunshine State C5 owner here. Base model. Not convinced sup'ing is the way to go. I'm not racing or tracking or anything like that. Just want more get-up-and-go. A LOT more. Just want better capability to swing around the slow-goers in the left lane everywhere in our state. And to get from the on-ramps onto the expressways, since people NEVER give way. So for me, it would be better to swap the factory 3.14 to a 3.73 instead. Gonna start looking around for one. I have to pay for the install, but I'm guessing all in, the check I write will be 1/4 the amount you did for the sup'.
Nice ride! Our cars are twins 😁 I have had my blower kit for over a year but have been unable to install due to continuous electrical and ignition issues.
At what Hp were you running the stock rods before they got bent on the 2 step? Also did you add ring gap before that? Anyways cant wait for further videos as I build my c5!
nice to see a video where the presenter knows enough to be able to work on the car . This one guy always pops up in my my algorithm who has the work done for him and then gives advice I sometimes find questionable. Also hire the work out on my corvette, but don't offer advice, and never intentionally comment beyond what I know.
Nice setup on your vette, runs are consistent, that is a nine second car for sure. Have you made any suspension mods, trans brace, remove the rear sway bar?
@@toddb3394 Well I'm just going by my personal experience. My previous build was an LS3 making 800rwhp. With a fuel system and 145lbs injectors the duly cycle was at 70-75% on full E85. E85 burns around 25% faster then regular gas so bigger injectors are needed to avoid running out of fuel. He's using 85lb injectors on Full E so that's not enough fuel or his duty cycle would be easily over 100% which is not good. Also that blower makes 750-800rwhp max so no way it's maxed out at 9lbs, especially since the motor is smaller then an LS3.(346 to 376). Also on those tires if he was making 700rwhp he would have been spinning a lot more than that in 2nd.
@@itshiho I'm running a similar setup 2004 Z06 at 10PSI (separate belt drive though) on an LSX 454, It needs to be retuned. I don't have dyno numbers on it but when it kicks at any speed it blows the tires off. In order to get an idea of what I'm putting down I need to dyno it and to see what it will do throw a set of slicks on it. Do you have a ballpark of what I can expect at the dyno? I know the LSX 454 has about 625hp/585tq out of the box if that helps. Running premium LS 9 injectors not sure the LBS
The supercharger really adds a lot of power for the money spent. That 700+hp should really be fun on the road.

Sts turbo kit is a clean setup and still have full a/c.
Beautiful C5Z. I had a 2004 Z16 and loved it. Traction is going to be the biggest problem on the street, so I'd be happy with 550ish rwhp.

So all I gotta do is save up 8600$? So by the end of next year I can get an A & A kit 😮 maybe I’ll sell my dirtbike

Need to get those plastic engine covers OFF -- they hold in a ton of heat.. there are lots of little wires under them cooking all the time..
beautiful car.

What part of FL... Im in tamap
Do you have the A&A single pump or dual pump kit?
Mines got cam/1-7/8” ARH headers/same blower/dual fuel pumps/alky addicts dual nozzle meth injection/Dewitt rad/Al tunnel brace/MGW shifter/motor blueprinted balanced w/ lunati forged crank/pistonS/rods &/custom cut blower pistons. 718whp to the wheel on a stingy mustang dyno.93 octane + VP M1 pure methanol
Great Ride! The wheels look great what brand/size are they?
Did you have to go into the block to obtain those HP numbers$
Would a entry level A&A SC kit overpower a stock C5 Z06 clutch?
Nice setup on your vette, runs are consistent, that is a nine second car for sure. Have you made any suspension mods, trans brace, remove the rear sway bar?
whats the part that makes the whoosh sound in the beginning of the video? is that like a blow off valve of something.
Which fuel kit did you get from A&A. The dual or single ??
It is the single pump
@@Jimmy-drives thanks man! I’ve got my A&A kit in now I’m figuring out which fuel system to get.
C5 was the best
What is all you have to run E85?
Nice job are you still running with the stock rear end are did you upgrade to an RRM unit
how big of injectors can c5 ecu run?
What are the specs on front wheels?
trans and diff stock?
IF not drag racing w/slicks... YES they are strong enough. (both are stronger than base C5's)
Bottom top?
700 to the wheels or crank?
9lbs of boost and 85lb injectors running full E85 that's crank.
@@itshiho how do you know that?

👍💯🇨🇵
i would have spent 12$ on a mach 3 to shave your face before the video.......mostly because i'm jealous.....forge stars and blower....
