Yes, my pre S/C dyno was 263 rwhp then after was 374 rwhp.

 

AHHHHH I see the numbers now...very impressive...truck must be a whole new machine!!

I like those short video clips you have on the site...I vote you post more!!!

I also downloaded the install directions for the kit...doesn't look too bad...oil pan is the only part that looked tough. So what's invovled with the PCM/computer part of it...or is nothing needed, since the PCM adjusts for the increased air? I would imagine you are running 91+ octane? Are the stock injectors able to keep-up? Do you think a modified throttle plate would increase HP's? So many questions...man I want one of these kits!

I would also guess you're warranty gets thrown out the window (for engine/drivetrain stuff)...

Hey Dan, the install is very straight forward, but I highly recommend you install and send it to a reputable performance shop to tune it. The kit comes with it's own computer that piggy backs ours. Its an easy install too. I run regular 87 octane with no problems. The kit also comes wqith a spacer plate (it looks like a throttle body spacer) that has 2 extra injectors installed in it. That is what that piggy backed thing operates. Yes, you're right it is a new truck. I ordered my gauge pod from GS. I should get it Friday. Money Money Money...

 

thanks for the update ezhemi...it sounds like a solid setup, especially since you're able to run 87 octane! Have you experienced any value train issues; or are you considering any upgrades? I've read/hear that some hemis have valve spring issues?!?

...sounds like you're about to put some headers on...and a gauge pod set-up (which will be sweet!)! I need to find the specs on your ride...sounds like you're a few steps ahead of me, but heading the right direction!! ...it's amazing to see the drive train soaks up 80-something hp (345-263 = 82 or 23.77%). Makes me all the more suspicious of the tranny/torque converter. Anyway, so figuring the numbers backwards on your S/C'ed hemi, looks like you're getting a little over 450hp at the crank (374+82hp=456hp at the crank)...that's HUGE!!!! I think 500 is do-able on the hemi...I heard the pistons have a thermal coating...I guess that's a help!!! then the headers!!! oh man, sick!

Does/did the S/C void your (power train) warranty? I can see the service manager now as he points to the head unit with a big smile on his face..."we can't work on this because you modified the engine� or something nutty.

So how did you find your performance tuning shop? Crazzy question, but are they able to tweak the PCM on the fly to adjust...plus I would guess they validate the upgraded fuel system...and of course get the dyno numbers...just curious where/how to start...

Thanks again for the info...this is good stuff!

Hey Dan, sorry for not getting back with you sooner, but... Anyways, to your questions: WHAT warranty? Scott at GS said that if I wanted to we could disconnect everything and take it in, but I told him to forget it. That would be way wrong. I didn't have to find a shop, because my truck was the prototype. Scott did it all. Oh well, I've got to go to work. You know pay for the gas.
