Default Went Kong 2650, 960hp 870tq

I just finished up the 2650 swap, tuning and dyno time this upcoming Thursday. I was sitting just shy of 800hp with 785tq before so hoping to break into the low to mid 900s. I don't have e85 so 91 with dual nozzle meth which is why my numbers are lower but from here on out I'll be utilizing boostane to up my octane to about 98.

Swap was super easy. I'm just trying to get the 5 inch intake to not hit my hood. I have a tuner fairly local to me that has tuned tons of high hp cars including my 810 wheel GTO, my 800 wheel c5z, my nitrous Hellcat, and my basic 600 wheel c6z. Went from one car and build to the next, definitely don't have the ability to own all those at once. Street to Sand is the shop name, Reno, NV.

Congrats on the Kong 2650. What upper and lower pulley sizes are you going with?

I was already running the 14% lower so sticking with that and a 2.75 upper. Greg said that would be the smallest he would recommend with 91 and meth.

Following to see the results.
What mods do you have?
What boost are you running before the swap?
It's just a blower swap only and tuning?
Interested in the 2650 myself

try to put some washers or make some spacers to drop your radiator cradle down a bit to stop the intake from touching the hood.

Yes, you also need a 2650 specific pulley but other than that, swap the blower on and get a tune. Expect +100whp or more. From what I have seen, ~130whp is the gain with the 2650 blower spinning slower. Since Magnuson is coming out with 3100 rotor packs, I am curious if Greg can make a bolt on Kong 3100.

How has your meth been working out ? Looks like you are spraying through the rotor pack. I was told this would negate most any gains.

We have **** gas here as well. We started using boostane on our other boosted car with good results so I was thinking of retuning with boostane + the kong lid on my ZR1 to see if I can get the stock ported blower pullied down more.

Cant wait to see your results.

I have heads, cam, longtubes, 14% lower, id1000s, meth, lt1s clutch, my car was maxed out for my fuel. I went from running 102 octane and making 755 to 91 with the meth kit and picked up 20 whp. I was making 16 pounds with the old setup so it'll be interesting to see what it makes now.

What’s your wheel and tire setup? If you don’t me asking. Looks killer. Looks like f14’s but curious about the wheel and tire sizes. Thanks.

Are you running these for drags, or do you run Standing Mile, Half Mile, Top Speed?

I think they are real solid numbers considering I don't have e85 and I'm at 4500ft elevation.

awesome!!! I just got a 2650 also. Planning on a 2.75/14 also. What injectors and pump setup do you have?

Id1000 injectors and the DSX aux fuel system. I'll post an overlay from my 2.4/14% 2300 so the gains can be seen from just the blower swap with tune.

That is awesome! Might have to pick up a slightly used 2650 when the 3100 comes out.
