Default TVS 2300 = 16.5lbs of boost

For anyone that is interested in how the 2300 is preforming

So far 16.5 PSI With More to go... Haven't had time to dial it in yet. It hasn't had a WOT burst yet as I'm still working on the AFR. I'm hoping to get out tomorrow to work on it a bit more. But I think max boost will be right where I was hoping it would be in the 18psi range.

It's also a bit lazy building boost at PT around town. That might change after the tune is dialed in but so far I preferred the 1900 for everyday driving.

What belt systems (front and back) are you running on it so far? Mine ramps to 20 at the drop of the hat.

I'm running a 3.2 on the front and the cogged rear @25%OD. My crank pulley is a 8.5 inches. But I haven't dropped the hat on mine yet (WOT) so if your making 20 at part throttle your way ahead of me. But even spinning it as fast as I am it is slower coming into boost than the 1900 was at part throttle. But the 1900 was doing 12lbs of boost at its peak for me.

What kind of engine are you running it on? Displacement.

We all know it's not an ecotec. What's been done to the 6.0? Has to be pretty good to hold up to the boost numbers you're trying for.

What type of front drive are you running 8 rib from? What brand belt?

The belt is a NAPA Micro-V AT 110 3/4". The 8 rib pulleys are from a Innovators and were a joke for what I paid. Should have just made them myself as everyone needed machining to fit or work. The crank pulley is a custom item I purchased from someone.

It amazes me that your fuel pump is keeping up with the fuel needs of 20lbs of boost. I stepped up to a external Magnafuel 4301 and 80lb injectors. My turbo SS at 20lbs of boost required 75lb injectors @90psi. Must be all the nice additives you CA guys have to live with

For those considering doing this your truck TB won't work. It gets sucked shut easily and often. You'll need a car TB and will need to elongate the mounting holes to pivot the entire TB a few degrees clockwise for the wiring clip to clear the jackshaft.

The belt I used is listed above.
