Thats because it doesnt make MORE boost, it gets the car into boost faster.05redline said:i tried it and didnt notice a differents on the boost guage
Is the way yall are doing the mod the same as this one?Sp00ner said:No, it's to get more boost. If you want to get boost faster, then you have to spin the supercharger faster, sooner. Period. The concept is to blind the computer to the 12psi limit, thereby letting the boost climb all the way to redline. The supercharger boost is directly related to the speed of the supercharger, the only way to change the speed of the supercharger is raise the rpms of the engine, or change the pulley. If you change the pulley on it, you would get into boost faster, without making more, because of the boost control solenoid.
I'm not sure how you guys do it to get boost sooner on your GP's, but regardless that's not what people were thinking here. Even if you get into boost faster, you're doing it to get more horsepower, since the power of the engine will be made sooner and stronger than it was before.
I'm only here due to helping out a freind with his anemic redline. I can't help wonder why so much of a big deal made over a car that boasts so much potential would be locked down to mearly 12psi of boost. and limited injectors? come on you guys have an off the bat advantage and theres guys still with Hondas walking all over you both at the track and in the technology shoot out !!! you guys should all be planning to utilize the options available both OEM and Aftermarket instead of bitchin about what GM shoulda, coulda, woulda done.Sp00ner said:No, it's to get more boost.

On a personal level i think its purely B.S. how Generous motors decided to build up the EGO of a new generation of tuners only to have it fall on its face by offering No actual support...
