onebadcad's setup....pics.
Just finished changing around the induction setup on onebadcad's procharged 2005 C6 vette. Mod list goes..
Procharger C6 P1sc-1 kit. Single front mount intercooler,.. 3 inch piping.
Kooks 1 7/8 black ceramic coated long tubes, 3" offroad X pipe, 3" b&B bullets.
42lb injectors, and custom diablosport tune by Johan Mangs.
I never liked the bottle neck that was on these kits, where the airfilter for the blower intake, had to be squashed down, sacrificing airflow, and limiting how much the car could efficently inhale. With the miami mile coming up, and wanting to get both of his cars prepped for the event,.. we really wanted to change a few things. Not only that, the car sits soo low, that we needed to do something with the procharger bypass valve,since we kept also cracking off the vacuum nipple from mild impacts.
So, I got a hold of race parts solutions and dudes hooked me up with a 4" aluminum 45 degree angle, and a 4" aluminum 90 degree angle. As well as a 4" inlet 7" long airfilter/cone style.(I m limited in length for the filter). Then got a hold of MIKETURBO-com and got a TiAL bov for the blower. It looked like such a nice piece. The ones(TiAL) on my car look sweet but, this design looks wicked. Like I wish I had it for a desk paper weight. Very nice.
Had to drop the cradle, barely. ALtered the top of the radiator,.. tilted it back,... alot of fandangling but, nothing extreme. It took me a few hours to get all this done( I was cutting the pipe with a cutting wheel not a chop box)... then I polished all the ends smooth. Alot of time but, in the end, the result is beastly, and the car, to me, has never felt soo good.
I saw 8psi, and belt shavings underneath the hood after the test drive. I jerry rigged a boost gauge so we could see. Saw no boost drop on gauge but, again, shavings underneath the hood. I will try and tighten the tensioner tomorrow and see if it helps at all.
All in all, the throttle response is soo crisp now, it feels like I am driving a large cubed motor. Very happy with results, we will get the belt problem fixed, get it to the dyno,... and get it to the mile on the 11th. Here are some pics.
stock PROCHARGER airbride/intake for filter
compare the two
difference....
Dyno results, 1 mile results in the short weeks to come. Peace

Thanks brother man but, you don't have to thank me dawg. You know it's my pleasure to work on these things. I appreciate you letting me work on your babies. Very cool that we have local companies that help us out on parts, which helps alot. As for me,.. i'd do work on these cars for free if that paid my bills. It's all love holmes. Hope you like the new setup.
...ps the car sounds amazing.
Thanks Nathan. He usually has the car very clean but, it's been in my hands for the last few days soo, she's a little dirty. It feels way faster then before.

ahhh.....(thats a long sigh)....my dear friend. It's a wonder why I even converse with you on a day to day basis at our wonderful, perfect little **** boot camp we call work. Now,... I have to waste more of my day,... wasting it on you, a self proclaimed homosexual automotive mechanic....in a spermicidel white corvette.
I'm just kidding spark plug,...
Food for thought, even though your just busting my trophey sized testicular glands(no sex for a month) ...
....the inlet of the P1SC procharger,...is 4".
The MASS AIR FLOW METER,.... is four inches. Do the math don won douchery. **** works,... and like I said, throttle response is on point, and better then ever. I'd often bust badcad's ***** for the car feeling slow(even though it wasn't)..... now, I can't honestly say that about the car. It is what it is. A nice bolt on car

Thank you Jay. You coming out to the mile? oct 11th www.milemarker-1.com ? you should go.
Thanks pittdaddy
He did good right. Nice taste. I should snap a pic of the interior. Nothing crazy, just a classy refined sportscar look, all the way around. I'll try and attach the go pro camera to the car for the ride to work tomorrow. It's in traffic so it's not like I can do anything but, it does sound amazing. Awesome sig by the way.

Thanks man.
I'm a self taught welder but, myworkmate Mike Brock took the aluminum pipe and flange home over the weekend it took care of it for me. I think he did a great job at it, couldn't be happier. I marked it out, he had a welder at home and more practice then I have.
Badcad can decide what he'd like to do with it. Me, i'm not a big chrome or polished person but, it's not my car ya know. I like the raw industrial look to it. I did paint it black with an "aluminum paint" but, it didn't stick at all. SO I brake cleaned it off.
If it was mine, after the standing mile thing i'd probably have it powder it coated or jet hot coated/black, silver,.. black anodized ,.. whatever. If it's functional, then i'm all for it.
But it's homedudes call on that.

Met up with Jamie yesterday, he stayed after work due to my schedule---always takes cares of his customers/friend!!! Car is wicked, the Tial valve is loud, sounds like a freight train, best mod money I have ever spend, as airflow and cooling improvements should get me huge HP and mph gains.
Jamie did the WB conversion for me about 1.5 years ago, also hooked me up on the C6Z rims, I did the math and saved like 30% over what most people pay->->-> Thanks again Jamie!!!
