Vortech YSI

[13 GT/CS]

Anyone have some numbers or times running a Vortech YSI? About to upgrade from my JT and wanted to see some real world results. Thanks!

Did you max out the JT already?

Pretty sure a guy I know has been into the 1000hp area with a YSI. He was making 940 or so with the Novi 2200 and switched to the YSI. I then purchased the paxton kit from him.

I made 998 whp with 23psi...wit more room left on the blower and combo...it's also for sale or tRade if u want

Yes, was looking into going turbo but couldn't find a buyer for this kit and cant afford to buy something else straight out so thought upgrading to a YSI would be my next best option.

I mean unless you want to trade your YSI for my JT I'm not sure what we would do lol

 

[GBCoyote]

He's going turbo.

What has made you believe you've maxed the JT out? Billet or just regular wheel?

I'm just curious as I made 850ish on a novi2200 even

if your maxing out a jt, i would do the billet ysi, really give you some more jump.

jt is an 8 second blower in the right setup, billet ysi should be able to go 7s in the right setup

What's the right setup? I'm trying to finish my ysi build. Right now just waiting on tune

Good tuner, some weight out of the car, good chassis/suspension to work from.

Who do you recommend for tuning

He's going to say Lund but imo once you get that fast, you need a local tuner who knows what he's doing.

Lund tunes most of the quickest/fastest centri guys. Have a lot of data from terry's car with a YSI and also a JT-B.

Don't always need a local tuner, it would be ideal but not a need. Lund has a good handle on these cars.

 

[92fiveohfox]

I agree with you for a slower car but for 8s the tune needs to be spot on, especially the trans. The easiest/best way to do that will be have a local tuner there at the track. Otherwise it will be a lots of sending log after log for revision after revision. I think juiced said it took him over 100 revisions on his snow white car to get it to go 8s.

Thanks for the info!

How high would the ysi-b have to be spun to get the most out of it and can that be done without tearing up belts?

That's awesome. I got a guy tuning my car now he only pulled up to 6k and it was doing 19 psi at 700rwhp he's gonna finish tuning start of next week I believe had to order a new oil line. But does that number sound right? It's the ysi not the ysi b but I do have full exhaust stage 3 cams and a boss intake and through a 6r80
