Very interested to see what you make with the JT Trim.

This blower has gone 1100rwhp through a Auto in Beefcakes car with less compression and less head and cam.. I'm shooting for around 17psi at 7800rpm and around 750-850rwhp.. And that's on low boost.. 15% O/D and a 3.33" blower pulley. I will likely throw a 2.95" pulley on it for a max effort with this blower then back to the 3.33".. The car is sub 3200lbs.. no need for 1000rwhp.. But I do honestly think that I can clip that 1000rwhp mark with this blower.

Both of mine will be Vortech cars even though I wanted a Vortech and a turbo car. Baby money trumps car money. Trying to decide which Blower will grace the CoBro's engine.

I would go with the JT-trim. It pretty much out performs every Vortech blower besides the YSI. BUT the YSI only beats it out at MAX RPM.. Or when you over spin it. and it was only like by 30rwhp.. But everything under the curve the JT trim trumped it.

I will say that if I ever upgrade I'm going turbo.. not gonna play with a blower anymore after this.

I wish I could go turbo, it just adds so much more for twins and to make the power with drivability I wanted.

How are you liking the BBR tank?

Looking good! I like the minimalist look going on with the cable routing under the manifold.

Yea it got out of hand pretty quickly..

Next step is to ditch the watts/tqarm and go back to a 4link setup for drag racing..

This winter will be a auto swap.. See if I can't go 8's in this bitch.

I can't afford to do the open tracking anymore. It's not family oriented enough. With Drew and stuff they have all the kids there and it's a total blast. So the car is going that route now..

Version 4.0 will be: Auto, 4 link, cage..

I get it for sure. Funny I was thinking of going the open track route as I live about 20 mins from sears point now. Big changes for medusa on any account!

Yea man I feel ya. Well all my rear suspension will likely be for sale. I plan on buying a dedicated track car for open tracking I think. Or get a GT350 for street/track use.. We'll see what happens in the future.
