BEAUTIFUL Engine compartment!

I'll definitely give you a call. I work from my home office on Fridays, so I'll probably call you then. Is that the custom radiator in your picture, or is the stock LS3 different from the LS2?

How do I tell if my SC is a si or T trim unit?

ricefed

It should say on the plate that is attached to the head unit. It has the serial number and any important info on that plate.

The plate dosen't have anything reguarding trim level on the Vortech superchargers.

Take a picture and post it. Is it a vortech? You might be able to contact vortech with a serial number and they can find out too.

Very NICE!!

It is! The car belongs to Brian Reckart (Reckart Performance).

It looks like the stock one. Didn't want to use a picture of one with an aftermarket radiator. Wanted to show that everything fits properly with the stock one.

You can measure the inlet of the blower. If the blower is off the car, or you remove the air bridge. A S/Si will have a 3.5" inlet, a T will have 3.75". You could also PM me the serial number and I'll look it up, or as ricefed suggested call Vortech and have them look it up.

Frank I'm going to try and load a pick I want your opinion on. It's black rubber dust from my belt. The outside and sides look like new. The inside(ribbed side) looks good. First thing in the morning I have a belt squeak and now this rubber dust. Could it be a result of the belt slipping? Seems like everything is aligned fine. I have about 2600 miles on my set up. Going to load a couple pics now.

This is on the pulley bracket. You can see where I swiped my finger.

Thanks for the info, it is a vortech.

Did you grind the water pump enough to clear the belt?

ricefed

Yeah it just started doing this the past week. I've been having small belt chirps first thing in the morning. I tightened the belt last night. The chirp is louder but I'm sure it's because the belt is glazed from slipping. With it being tighter the boost gain was nice. I'm seeing 2 psi higher at 5k than before. What belt would you guys recommend I use when I replace it? Gatorback? Green stripe?

Dead idler pulley? Bad alt bearing?

Can you tell me or advise me as to whether or not you can put a supercharger a stock corvette without modifing the engine? And the same question on a Z06.

Josh@AandASuperchargers

You can supercharge a stock motor without changing anything internally. PM sent.

Thank you for your quick reply.

quick question I have not seen anybody ask about the 8 rib upgrade. Any info as to what this is and how much will it change in whp numbers on a 2006 A6? Also, what should I consider if I want to do alot of WOT from a deadstop(i.e. trans, rear end, ect...)?

NospdLimit

It depends on what boost you are running.. If the belt isnt slipping it will not change WHP numbers at all.
If you want to do a lot of WOT from a deadstop with a SC and tires that hook, I would expect all you listed to fail at some point.
