Does Vortech convert to T or Ti trim ? I can understand them not wanting to go to YSi when they can just sell you a whole new blower...

Josh, I'm still waiting for that email about what it takes to make BIG power for deep 9s or faster...all I know so far is YSi head unit. I need cam specs, etc...

Thanks for your input so far.

Does anybody have a good picture showing how much of the fan shroud to trim? With the newest 2016 bracket and air dongle if it matters.

That's my next step and the instructions don't really show it that well

Those mounts are definitely bringing the blower down lower. You might add another .5" to the radiator spacers to help out.

I'm going to T into the brake booster for the bov... Now I also have a boost gauge and the bap which needs vacuum also.

I plan on using the "y" fitting to run to the boost gauge off the bov line... But what about the bap? I feel I need a different vacuum source and shouldn't T all 3 of those off the




This is what I am going to do. Now where do I put the vacuum for the bap?

I'd run them all off of the same one. It's a tiny amount of air movement needed to activate the hobbs, so I wouldn't worry about it.

It's fine to source them from the brake booster fitting.

Could you brake down the difference between each upgrade kit?
Possibly get my hand on a new used rebuilt d1sc.
I have a 2003 z06
Thanks Jason

Just make sure it's a reverse rotation headunit to use it on our bracket.

Also you can deduct $1500 from our Retail price of a brand new kit to get everything you need for an install, but use that D1 you got.

So, $3995 plus $100 shipping and be sure to remind us to substitute a P/C style bracket on the order.

What are the main differences between each of the upgrade kits on your website?
Is 3995$ your only option?
Thanks

You can click on each Stage to see what is added on from the previous Stage.

If you only have a headunit, then the Stage 4 upgrade kit would be the most complete option, but it still doesn't include injectors, spark plugs, or BAP. It comes out cheaper for you to get my full kit less headunit. But only if you are getting the headunit for a really good price already. Most of the time you are better off spending the extra and getting a brand new full kit from us with a 1 year warranty. You could pick the V3 Ti-trim headunit to have something comparable to the D1.

Josh, can you tell me what injectors your kits use? I'm swapping an LS3 into a C5.

If you do the LS3 swap and order a kit from from, make sure to mention that so we can get the LS3 80# injectors with harness adapters.

Also we need to put the C5 or C6 SC bracket in the kit depending on which waterpump you used.
