Default C7 Edelbrock E-Force Supercharger info :)

Introduction to the new E-Force supercharger for the 2014 Corvette Stingray, starting under $8,000!

2014 Corvette Stingray
E-Force Supercharger


Description
The true potential of this legendary sports car has been unleashed by the Edelbrock E-Force supercharger system! The 2014 Corvette features a new Gen 5 LT1 engine platform which called for ground up re-design of the E-Force system, enabling Edelbrock engineers to incorporate several new design features like a super low profile manifold and runners for hood clearance with no hood modifications required, a cast water crossover that simplifies the intercooler hose routing, as well as an aggressive new look and finish, boasting a two-tone powder coat and tasteful new badges. All in all, this system delivers substantial power gains in the form of a bolt-on- kit that is sure to turn heads and tear up the asphalt.

"50-state emissions legal"... That most certainly explains the delay in official launch. CARB Certification is a long slow process.

I wonder what if anything they are doing differently to combat the seal leaking issues that have been experienced with other supercharged C7's.

Wow, 624 RWHP on a automatic with a optional powertrain warranty?

Man... -1 on that video for loud annoying music without hearing the car/blower whine.

That's the best part of PD - that awesome whine. Love KB just for that sick sound.

That is a FLYWHEEL number, and NOT at the rear wheels.

624 crank. Edelbrock uses crank numbers. Probably low 500s to the ground.

EXACTLY. I would imagine around 530 RWHP SAE with the base kit and supplied tune.

It says "1570 & 1571 Rear Wheel Dyno Results" under the image. So, it seems thats what they are claiming to the wheels.

Exactly why I assumed it was RWHP.

While that number does seem on the high side for a "canned tune" with a optional powertrain warranty but for $9k+ including a warranty it should post those #s!

do you have documentation supporting that or is that based on the past?

because based on the past I agree they look like crank numbers. but i never base things on the past if the future is based on a different present.

All of their charts have been designed the same way, with the same marketing, etc. It stands to reason (though there's always a chance of deviation) that they're keeping with the same marketing strategy of showing bhp versus whp.

The blower they're using isn't going to supply that much power and still remain safe enough to warranty. They'd also run into problems with CARB with having to run such high octane to produce something close to those numbers (96+).

You know I respect your posts, just pointing some things out. I may very well be wrong.

I'm not offended because I certainly agree. I always play devil's advocate when people predict the future.

Just when they use RWHP they put it on the graph itself, like with the trucks.
