Sounds Awesome!!

The car looks great. What size pipe are you running of the blower for the inlet. Even with 4" pipe we have seen 100rwhp gains by just running a filter of the back of the supercharger.

Thanks, what kind of power are you making with your t-trim and what boost ?

Car looks good Ivan! Did you remove your drivers side hood strut to clear the filter? I've been trying to find a way to run a bigger filter off the blower, but it's not that easy with the space we have to work with.

I have WS6 ram air hood on my car, I think this VFN hood will work.

Almost 560rwhp and 580 lbs torque. at 15 lbs boost The tuner said it was pulling timing bad, due to the iat,s. So this winter I put a meth kit and a way better exhaust on. Tomorrow (hopefully) I,m taking it to get retuned.

Ivan just sent me this video, it's about to go on the Dyno today:

FYI Ivan's Trans Am was originally an LT1 car. So he has the 93-97 style WS6 Ram Air hood. He's also recently converted it to Auto from T56 and reworked the front bumper/rad support for a proper front mount intercooler.

Dyno Results

Finally some dyno results, all was good car made 656rwhp / 632trq that was 15psi, 16deg of timing, 94 octane at 6200rpm through TH400.
I had wheel slip at about 5500rpm, we will try again in couple weeks with some weight in the trunk and less air pressure
