For those that like superchargers, a couple of recent graphs

[V8HSV]

For those who like superchargers, here is a couple of LSV projects nearing completion, A57 HSV’s old engine is now in a GTS producing + 600 figures





Their CAPA car set to exceed 700 BHP quite soon as they are entering in the Tuner GP contest with it, both engines are 5.7 LS1.

Obviously I like the Vortex blowers having one myself, good to see the potential as I will no doubt be knocking on their door in the not too distant future for an uplift in power.

Nice graphs, I'd personally like to hear more about what LSV are doing and get some more customer feedback especially with graphs like that! I also remember a guy with a Monaro had a Starr Twin-Screw supercharger done there (not Pomonas car), now that is a fantastic bit of kit!

Is that all?

Would be cool to have AFR too.

RWHP?

Are these SAE adjusted? I dont know how to tell from the dyno sheet.

I think you are correct ringram

Unfortunately I never made it to the Dyno at LSV, but my engine made 542bhp when put into the GTS that LSV now have for sale. With further fettling & allowing another 700rpm, Mark got it up to the 610bhp as shown on the graph.
I would have guessed that it put out somewhere close 540bhp in my old car, so I'm not surprised at all.
For everday/business use the 540bhp figure was spot on. No reliability issues, very docile & user friendly at low revs. your Granny really could have driven it. Let the revs. build though & it was a different story!
I loved the linear power delivery of the supercharger, which made it feel like a n/a engine.
