Just about done. Finished product is looking decent. Hope to have some 1/4 mile data in a month or so. Have a newborn, so tough to get out soon.

have a video on youtube:

Congrats on getting it running... It doesn't sound very healthy in the you tube video - hopefully it's just bad sounding video, but it's not doing you any favors. Mybe try to get a better recording... Good luck with it!

Wow impressive you did it for only 3k. Any way you could provide a quick break down of the parts and cost for the larger items like tune, and the pro charger unit itself.

Big savings was on the Procharger. I got it used for $735. New they are about $2.5k. There are plenty of them used on the muscle car forums, since a lot of those guys end up going with a bigger charger eventually.

Procharger: $735
Tune: $1100
Meth Kit: $400
Metal for mount and spacers: $75
Piping/Couplers: $150
Crappy ebay BOV: $60...will prob swap for used vortech or procharger valve for ~$200

The rest is misc parts and repurchasing things while I was building like belts, couplers, screws, etc.

Sorry been side tracked lately with new baby in the fam. I'm just waiting on the final final tune file, but its been running great and reliable for the last couple months. I drive it to work once a week or so with no issues. Still trying to get to the track to give you all a real idea of performance. Butt dyno tells me it should run in the low to mid 12s 😁.

Quick update...Project is still going. I've been trying to get the final tune done for a couple months now, but it has been slow going . Hoping I have it in the next week or so and can get to the track before it's closed for the season to get the real numbers. Good news is it's still running strong on the base tune...no issues at all, just don't want to push it real hard until I have the best tune. I'm also hoping the tweaked tune gets me closer to low 12s

Finally got my updated tune. Planning to get to the track this weekend 😁. Pulling pretty nice in this cooler NJ air so we’ll see. If numbers aren’t what I’m looking for I’ll be upgrading the impeller over the winter while I fine tune the rest of the setup. Will post the results.
