Default Antonio's 2000 FRC w/ A&A Supercharger-546RWHP, 493RWTQ

Anotonio's 2000 FRC w/ A&A Supercharger
-546RWHP, 493RWTQ




Antonio came to us looking for some upgrades. His car before the new mods had SLP Ported Heads, mild cam, and a custom tune. His numbers before the new upgrades were 360RWHP...

His new upgrades included
A&A Supercharger w/ 8PSI pulley
TSP Long Tube Headers
Billy Boat Bullet Exhaust
TPS Stage 2 Brake Upgrade Kit (Slottted Rotors, Stainless Lines, Motul Brake Fluid, Hawk HPS Pads)
TPS Candy Blue Powder Coated Calipers
TPS Custom Air brushed Fuel Rail Covers
TPS Custom Dyno Tune

This video of the dyno run was done with a 10PSI pulley which we changed to a 8PSI pulley as we decided it was just too much boost with the compression and milled heads. We had discovered that his heads were milled down to 64CC which raised his compression ratio to about 10.5:1. Another factor is lowering the boost was Antonio's primary use.. auto-crossing, this way his engine can live a long life.

His current numbers with a 8PSI pulley are 523RWHP and 460RWTQ... not bad for a "little" upgrades

SWEET, and such a great color!

Antonio, I'd love to go for a ride sometime (if you don't mind) to see how the car feels with the SC.

Welcome to D2 Antonio! Things are heating up in Race Class next year! We will actually be able to do some racing in 2012! Anthony Pelayo will be joining us in a C5 coupe which, no doubt will be big time moded this winter, Steve will be back with the F-14 and a new pumped motor, I am looking for a bit more torque for the Rattler (Cam/Head package), and no doubt Rick, Bobby and Dave will be busy with the fast toys for their rides. Or you could go run in X Class with Rory! Looking forward to one hell of a year! Let's go racing!
