Hey Matt, whats new?

 

That is a sweet truck. I like the looks and the performance is outstanding. A good mesh of parts IMO. The 60' times are remarkable. 1.8's are the best I've squeezed out of mine.

 

oh i heard that! There's plenty of times I nail it and go . Unless there was a noticeable difference in weight or power to ground ratio, I am just to lazy and cheap to do it. Plus, doing a burnout is kinda cool here and there.

well, glad to see you 2 sign up, hang out here enough to spill you techy knowledge around! and thanks for the showing off your "green light" monster.

 

Very nice setup. But the only down side I see to it is the fact that you caint do a burn out. As childish and stupid as that sounds, I LOVE doing burnouts with my truck. I think there is something very theriputic about a nice long smokey burnout.

On another note, I am interested to see how that blower woudl work at a higher boost level. Say 12-14#'s ?????????

 

Is there any reason an AWD setup couldn't be switched like the 4wd?

 

Amen to that... I suppose that's why he keeps his car around, but that would be if we discussed that here.

Me too... I don't think the blower is being spun to its max potential yet. There was some concern as to how much the stock short block, head bolts, etc could take so it was left on the conservative side. Like it was said before, this truck is a work in progress and isn't/probably never will be an all out race truck. It's used as a daily driver so he needs it to be left reliable.

Umm... That's not Matt.

There is no way to switch the AWD on or off like the 4WD. The AWD t-case uses a viscous coupler front to rear that cannot be disengaged.

 

I've been gone to Mexico and didn't get a chance to chime in. I just wanted to say that I was completely amazed with what that truck did. I think that the modest mods and the crazy results speak tons about the new tvs. I don't think that it really sunk in that they were at 8-9 psi with no detonation control and ran low 12's!!!!! Yes other people have run those times with the 112 but they have they're set up wound pretty tight. I think this set up was just getting started, with lot's of room for improvement. That truck is so awesome it made me sick, thank you!!!!!!

 

lol, I agree 100%

 

^^ I think you'll find people will aways say they are unimpressed.. especially those who have spent way more on thier setup to achieve the same results..

 

The TVS is the next generation of superchargers , you can count on it. I seen the same blower thats on Matt's truck make almost 700 HP on 14 lbs of boost on a bone stock 5.3 with a G2-3 cam and the only reason it made such a small number was because it lifted the cylinder heads off the block and started blowing exhaust into the dyno cell. The HP curve was not even thinking about falling of at that point. I think 800-1200 HP numbers with low parasitic and temperatures will be easy with the new TVS superchargers depending what size unit is used. Look out everyone!
