Great questions. Car ran like a bat out of hell with no issues for extend periods of full throttle driving for many track days with the stock Paxton. After I increased the boost the temp started going up. I recently picked up a new radiator from Alan’s Performance, but have no feedback as of...
My motor is stock displacement with a Comp Cam custom grind. I am running an AEM PCM and have the ability to log all engine data. I have personally spent about 30 hours on the dyno playing with different setups and observing and learning all the crazy things that go on with these high HP...
Quick answer is yes, a smaller pulley can get you to 100, 150 or more. But life is never that simple. Assuming the engine has beefed up rotating components there are a host of other issues. First those little pins that come with the Paxton kit to secure you crank pulley will shear instantly...
Re: how to get to 1000rwhp w/ a SC:
I spent over $25K on parts (still have the spread sheet somewhere) and did all the work myself. This did not include the Paxton which I had installed a year earlier. It is not as easy as you think. You are going where only a few have gone and to get all the...
Just be careful with the VEC. With a completely different fuel system, you will experience a stumble when you stomp on the pedal. This phenomenon is exclusive to the SRT. Sean was working on a solution but I don’t know if he was able to solve it.
Your tires are rubbing because you lowered the car. It does not matter if you have Moton or Penske. Three things that will keep the tires from rubbing, raise the care back up, get stiffer springs/sway bar or go to 18” wheels. I love that lowered look and I still run my stock wheels on the...
Re:
I sent a PM but did not get a reply. My question is about the performance difference on the Gen-3. The Gen-3 OEM radiator does a good job consequently there has not been a demand for a better radiator. I am running 850 RWHP and have been experiencing high temps at the track. No problem...
I went form run flats to Sport Cups to slicks. The big thing I noticed was that though I eventually got better times, the slicks did not make me a better driver. I thought street tires were limiting me to really going fast, but I learned very quickly that it I was the limiting factor. You...
Not stock rails, not sure who makes them but I got them from RSI. I’ve seen them on another tuners car but can’t remember who. It has 3/8 NPT threads on both ends.
Yes, 2 Walbro’s feeding the fuel rail through a Y into the back of each rail and then the front of the rail going to the fuel regulator and back to the tank. Make sense? There are a few pics in my gallery of the regulator and front hoses it that helps. It is quiet, well only a small wine when...
The SRT has an in tank pump, that rearticulates (sort of) in the tank. I pulled out the internal pump and replaced it with two pumps in the tank. Ran a new line up to the fuel rails and used the old fuel line as a return to the tank. Works great and plenty of fuel for big HP and no heat issues.

I had stock headers & Corsa and switched to Balengers. They are a lot louder. I love it. More power?? Has to give some, just not sure how much. Is it worth the $$, if all you are looking for is a few more HP, considering that you have a SC already, I would say not. I switched when I did a...
Re: My car doesn\'t stop leaking oil....
2 places I have seen oil come from. The valve covers, run your finger along the bottom side of the valve covers and feel for any oil, check that all the valve cover screws are tight. The other place is the front, passenger side of the motor, in front...
It’s not that long of a story, just physics. I am assuming the 113 in “113 pump gas drags” mean 113 octane? 113 Octane is not really pumped gas, not even close. On 113 you can get close to 15:1 CR for NA motors!! The correct set up is obviously critical. More boost equals less compression...
The surface area I am referring to is for cooling, the holes provide more surface area for air to cool the rotors. I could not begin to know what the Lemans and Daytona people do, 12-24 hours of racing is a completely different situation, I won’t not insult anyone by guessing. All I know is...
I have StopTech 2 piece rotors that I run on my SRT. I have gone through 2 set of drilled rotors and 2 sets of slotted rotors. I started out wit the drilled ones mainly because they dissipate heat and gases the better than slotted. (basic physics, not opinion). The problem is that they are...
Nope, definitely not worth the effort. You will break half the wire clips getting the old wires off and have to replace them or get after market ones, and for no real improvement
