2010 Camaro @ HHP Carolina
 
This is a 2010 Camaro that we did headers, catback and Magnacharger on back in the summer. Just now got around to doing the video.

That dyno will hurt feelings if your a dyno queen that is after big #'s

Its a great tuning tool though, mostly because you get so much load from the pull and a larger amount of data from the pull.

The 2010 Camaro SS gets some new stuff
 
Victor dropped his Camaro off during the Holidays for us to do a few more upgrades and it finally gave us the opportunity to get the car on the dyno since installing the camshaft.

The new items installed this time around were:

3.73:1 Richmond Gears
Janetty Racing billet carrier bearing caps
Janetty Racing limited slip upgrade kit
BMR Pro Kit rear subframe bushings
DSS Level V axels
Hotchkis Chassis Max kit
Pfadt swaybar end links
Braided brake lines

These items compliment the previously installed Magnacharger, Lingenfelter cam, CAI cold air kit, dual fuel pumps, Kooks headers, Corsa cat back, Hotchkis Stg 1 TVS suspension, Pfadt trailing arms and Hurst shifter.

Victor is building for the future which will eventualy be a forged stroker and heads with more boost so a twin disc clutch upgrade is on the short list for the next round of upgrades.

This car is a real sleeper and tastefully done. The cam is silky smooth and has enhanced the powerband of the Maggie without giving up anything in drivability. This is a really fun car to drive with torque for days and we thank Victor for trusting us with his baby. Hope you like the pics.

Upgraded diff assembly ready to go back in.

Hotchkis Chassis Max kit. This is a really nice piece with excellent fit.

Strapped to the dyno for a quick tuning session. This car made some nice power with a fairly conservative tune and still on the original 6lb pulley. There may be another 5-10 hp in it if I wanted to string it out, but I didn't really see the need at this stage. We also have the option of a pulley swap if the need for more power arises.

nice.

Good job on the Camaro........Thanks for the Video. I'd like to see what kind of times it will run.

Thank you for the kind words. I would like to see some times also. I don't know when or if Victor plans to take it to the track, but maybe we can talk him into it one night. :mrgreen:

Looks good. Was that Skate passing by in the vid?

Yep. We didn't have our dyno when the supercharger was first installed. The camshaft and other odds had been done since that video so it was due for a touch-up. Unfortunately, Skate didn't have his dyno software updated with the 2010 data so we had to use data for a Challenger, but that didn't really make a diff from a calibration standpoint, just might skew the "numbers" a bit.

Whats the SAE numbers?

not to bad, same hp i made on the camaro for gm hi tech with a 150 shot, nitrous made more tq though. 532/587sae It has to be fun to drive having that power all the time, a 10lb bottle only last so long, lol.

Yeah, it is nice knowing it's there when you want it, especially in a 4200 lb car, and having a six speed makes it more tempting to just let it pull through the gears, but at the top of second you are already breaking the law on 95% of the roads around here. I could see myself getting very frustrated driving that thing on a daily basis. I would have to take it to a track to stretch it out.

Like I said, there is a little more there as it sits, but I think if he gets a hankerin for more, I'll just pulley it down and go from there. :mrgreen::cheers

methonal or water injection.. aem offers a 5 gallon unit.. just the benifits from intake temps being less should yeid a little.. if tuned for it expect a little more. superchargers are white dwarfs any type intake temp drop should mean allot.

may be stupid but why not get the filter out of the engine bay? or get cold air to it? i never see domestics or ls based cars with the intake out of the engine bay. pull in a little less warm air??

The intake temps haven't really been a problem with either of the TVS systems I've worked with (approx. 20 deg F above ambient by the end of a pull). These SC's have a really good adiabatic efficiency compared to the older maggies and the front heat exchangers magnachager is using in the IC system are huge and seem to do a good job getting the heat out.

As for the air filter, that air intake system is very well sealed from the engine compartment and pulls air from behind the headlight area. He also has the ADM air scoop installed that channels air from the lower bumper opening into the filter compartment. The meth would help, but I don't know if it would be worth the cost at this stage.
