Default Vortech Question

I looked on their website for my 02 camaro and this is what they had:

http://www.vortechsuperchargers.com/...1-02fbody.html

it says a G trim, but it seems like most people here dont run that. Anyone know how the different trims stack up??

Also how do I get another trim for my car/?

Thanks.

Give vortech a call and talk to their tech support. They can explain them to you in detail.

or just go to www.superchargersonline.com and check out their vortech headunits and you'll see all the different trims you can get. Im sure some shop can get one to work for you or do it yourself. Good Luck on your build!

Most folks running Vortech stuff on LS1's are in fact running the G-Trim.

I run a YSi-Trim, with custom brackets, it's good for up to 1000fwhp... maybe more.

The G trim is more than adequate for at least 550 rear wheel hp. You can upgrade to the T trim after that which is easily good for 600 plus rwhp.

i'm making 450 through an automatic at barely 7 lbs of boost at 6k rpm.

Go vortech you'll love it!

12 LBS on a g trim should get you numbers close to that.
