Absolutely gorgeous setup. It looks like the Halltech Super Bee is our fiberglass version. Same massive 15" Halltech Filter. I think your email to me indicated that our intake reduced vacuum by 2", and decreased IATs by 6-8 degrees?
I did not see our Beehive heat shield in the pictures, was it in place? It shields the filter from underhood heat, and with some slight cutting in the radiator shroud area, will bring in ram air. We typically see ambient plus 2 degrees on the road within 150 ft of a one minute stop.

Yes. Instant Boost and I mean instant. With some kits you are hitting full tq at 2000rpm's... Fun on the street doesnt get any better, No waiting for boost , no spooling, no bs...

wow thats awesome.. but how does it compare with the procharger centri system?
the zr1 basically has a tvs2300 pd blower so there must be a reason they went with this blower style.. unless they choose it because it was more astetically pleasing through the clear window of the hood

that hood look great in the updates pics! I had this same Whipple 2.9 on my GT500 and these blowers are amazing!
Dustin, do you see any belt slip issues when running higher levels of boost? Say 15-16psi? It looks like the kit is using a 6 rib setup?

Working on the new 4.5L compressor now. It is a brand new compressor for us so we do have a lot of testing to do before it is released. At this time, I do not have an accurate release date but it should be be within a couple months.

Lots of dyno graphs of the Camaro version on the Camaro5 board. Same blower and LS3 motor....should yield similar results. Maybe a little better with the vette's lighter drivetrain. The Camaro does have a slightly different motor on the A6 versions. Little less compression and vvt. Most of those guys get rid of the vvt and convert to an LS3 style valvetrain.

But it's going to retain the same bolt spacing and such so a direct swap?
