Default e-Force Edelbrock bare-bones stock install (what to expect)?

If you install the e-Force Edelbrock supercharger onto a GS M6 (dry sump) are there any things to look for; any concerns or issues, pulley slip, fuel starvation on the 8th cylinder at high speeds, etc.

I plan on doing this because a bare-bones with a Edelbrock stock-tune will grant a 3 year warranty.

Default E-Force

Nothing to worry about if the installation is done right! To get he warranty it will have to be done by one of their certified shops. I had the E-Force on my 2007 A6 coupe and had a blast with it for four years with no issues. Heat soak is an issue if you plan on drag racing. Good luck.

What sort of RWHP is expected for a stock NPP LS3? Most of the dynos I see are for the Stage 2 (smaller pulley) but I'm putting on the Stage 1 kit.

I'd guess at about 500rwhp.

Nothing to worry about as long as you do everything properly. No belt slip issues with that pulley set up, no running out of fuel (if the larger injectors and BAP are used).

May I ask why an E-Force and not a Maggie (or even a centri)?

It's a Centennial and I don't want to lose the hood.

None of the centri's or the Heartbeat requires a new hood.

Plus up in CO you are already down 20%, so basically you are just going to be making up for the power loss for elevation. It will make it run like a stock car down at sealevel. So clutch, fuel system, etc won't be stressed at all.
