Default Paxton Installed pics?

Does anyone happen to have a picture of either the Nuvi 1200 or 1500 installed in a C6? Looking at the kit from ECS and just wondering what it will look like.

Please excuse the dirty car and dirty engine bay. I haven't driven her in a little while and it is collecting some dust! A professional detail will be done next Thursday, so I'll get you some then too

Procharger Race BOV:




ECS Fuel System, Meth System, and 1500 8 rib:


















Hope this helps!

Awesome thanks. Is that the 1500 or 1200? How much power are you making?

That's what it looks like when she's clean...had to show me up, huh! What new set up did you go with??

Here are my dyno graphs:

Headders, Catted X-Pipe, Corsa Sports, Tune, and the 1200 Kit from ECS!


The next is the same as above, but with the 1500 head unit with Methanol...same pulley. Would have been more with a different pulley.



Now, engine mods include: Kooks Longtubes, Catted X-pipe, Corsa Sports, a 224/236 117lsa, Fully built 402, stock heads with Patriot Spings and Hardened Pushrods, 10 lbs. of boost, Novi 1500 with 8 rib, ECS Meth Kit, ECS Fuel system, and a very conservative tune, 730rwhp/675rwtq.

Let me know if I can help you with anything else!

John

Thanks for posting the pics guys!


Fright88, the power it makes is completely up to you, although making below 450 would take great effort.

We usually leave them between 500 and 550 rwhp.

Cool I wouldn't say no to more I just want to keep as safe a tune as possible. Waiting for the bank to clear funds to order.
