first run on the street, couldnt hook till 3rd

 

Very nice, is the trans built?

 

nice!, did i hear some compressor surge at the beginning?

 

stock trans, and bypass valve at the beginning..some may call compressor surge.

 

You get it to the track yet with the new setup?

 

So you gained 180hp with the procharger, but only gained 7mph?

 

I see you post in just about every procharger thread and question the performance gains. When you add that much power, it takes time to sort through things to get the numbers from the setup.

I have no doubt he'll be running mid to low 10s at 130mph once he dials in his setup and gets more seat time in it.

Just wait till you get your setup done, you'll see how drastic of a change it is.

 

I gained 188rwhp with my procharger, and there were cam only cars running faster than me in the 1/8th. Its all about gettin the power to the ground. You dont realize how hard it is to do so either until you get that much power under your *** and try to launch it... i agree with alchemist, wait unitl you get yours done. Its night and day.

 

Yes it was my first track day with the new setup, when it went 11.0 this 6spd auto is a monster to tune, Im sure its was a 10 sec car that day,but never got a extra run.. It should trap 130ish 131 with a new revised trans tune.Thanks guys you obviously know that you dont build a FI car and make it run its *** off first track day.

 

Yeah its a new setup man,working the bugs out. Not sure if you know that car is 4290lbs race weight... im happy with my first track ET & mph considering the issues i was having with the 6l80E

If your not familure with the 6l80E you should do some research on them. You will find out how terrible they are to fine tune. Most people swap to a different more user friendly trans.

 

What other mods on the G8, it sounds incredible.

 

custom cam/DOD delete kit, 1 7/8 kooks longtubes, D1s/c 10psi pump gas, 2010SS dif ,2800 stall,

 

Yes I can see that, but the mph gains I'm seeing with procharged cars is what is kinda bothering me... Actually it's just hard to find procharged times for some reason. Can't seem to find many anywhere. I'm only planning to run 5-6psi and I'd hope to gain atleast 7mph with that boost level.

 

If you're looking for drag times, go into the drag racing tech section and start searching. Anyone will tell you though, that it takes time to maximize a setup at the strip. Procharged cars make the power, getting that power to the pavement and down the strip is a different story.

 

what blower are you running,P1 ? any why only 5-6 psi
What kinda car isthe setup in..my same setup in a FBody would make more MPH. Do to power to weight. You cant really go off other peoples builds to for results "every car is different. and keep in mind Dynos are ''TUNING TOOLs'' its cool to see a number at end of a pull, but they really are meaningless .

 

G8's and 5th Gen Camaros are heavy, my 2010 Camaro is like 4150 raceweight. I think OP's numbers are pretty nice, I do see some 5th gens going mid 10's with similar stuff but with more converter (and it takes time to work an ET down).

Padre on Camaro5 has a similar for a 5th gen Camaro, I think his current best is 10.8@127 and he has not been out in ages.

 

yeah true ,the converter is a 2800 but flashes @4400 with the added power,im sure i have a 10 sec pass in her as soon as the track opens back up.

 

Nice, what converter in it?

 

PI or VIGILANTE 2800 really tight i like it with the setup. I had a 3600 FTI for cam only...must say i really like the PI better.

 

Nice run Dave, I'm sure you have a lot left in her.

I gained 300+ rwhp with my setup
