World's 1st D1X ProCharged Corvette
 
I know some of you have seen the results already but I wanted to put a little video together. I'll have more street action to put together soon hopefully.

Car looks and sounds great. I'm interested to see what it makes with a smaller pulley and if you can regain some of the low end lost.

Detoxx03 08-16-2017 02:29 AM

I don't really really want anymore low end. Car will spin anyway. I'll put it on at somepoint and see what it makes though.

Nice! That thing must pull like a beast. If I ever go centri, this is most likely the blower I would use.

Yeah, I was also thinking you're getting close to that 200 split in tq/hp, but the seems to always impress. Definitely not the best dyno weather. Congrats, love seeing the car over the years.

It pulls like crazy and then drives around town so simple and smooth

Definitely not. I'm sure as is now in cooler weather it would make close to 1000 then be well within it with the smaller pulley I have. Maybe before the next TX2K if I go I'll swap them. Thanks I'm glad the car has done well for me over the years. :thumbs:

I am tempted to change out my Ti trim for a D1-X but not sure if I want to swap brackets etc.

JetstreamGS 08-18-2017 06:49 PM

Nice #'s detoxx! How does the D1-X compare to an F1-D? Seems like the specs are similar.

DO IT! your setup would be ideal for this blower.

The new A&A bracket with billet tensioner is epic and you can sell your old one and older blower and probably recoup most of the cost. Bob at brutespeed seems to have best procharger prices.

Legit setup.

I already have the newest A&A bracket with billet tensioner but for a Vortech pattern. Would be easier to go YSi but I just spent the money to go to a ZR1 trans and Diff instead of more power.

Detoxx03 08-20-2017 10:36 PM

Oooooh ZR1 trans ftw

Yep. I decided the MH3 gearing and ZR1 diff would be the best way to upgrade the car at its current ~850ish whp level. I may consider more power later since the rest of the driveline is already built with a Mantic 9000, DSS propshaft and couplers along with new bearings.

The Z51 gearing in my 6060 was just too steep at this power level.

neverstop 08-21-2017 01:09 PM

Niccceeeee. that z51 gearing is total bummer with big power for sure, especially 5th gear. If i ever have to pull my transmission for some reason again I'll be going zr1 gearing for sure.

Detoxx03 08-21-2017 02:57 PM

I just want the 5th and 6th

neverstop 08-21-2017 07:39 PM

i wish it wasn't impossible to just get a slightly taller 3rd and 4th.

you can do that but I wanted them all honestly. Above 800 whp the ZR1 gearing makes sense esoecially over 700 ft lbs

schpenxel 08-22-2017 02:39 PM

Z51 gearing blows. I hate it

CI GS 08-22-2017 03:00 PM

Powerglide the bitch! I'm outta here...:leaving:

One of the best mods I have done is to go ZR1 gearing 1-6
