Look at the outer bottom bracket held in by two socket head screws. There's 3 of these brackets along the outer rim with a total of 6 screws. Remove these screws and you'll be able to spin the volute freely.

Awesome! Topgunz, hurry up and get the kit to me! Can't wait to get this going!

I am pretty excited TopgunZ's coming SC kit. Can't wait to see how that turns out.

TopgunZ · 05-04-2017, 01:46 PM

By taking the filter off you will get close to 15. I got to 14.5psi. However, that is not recommended for motor health.

Talk to StillenZ84. He was making 560whp and is going for 600.

StillenZ84 · 05-05-2017, 08:02 PM

Yeah taking the filter off obviously allows more dust and debris into the motor and shouldn't be done if you daily drive your Z, unless you like to party I guess. I for example will have a "race tune" as one map tuned with the filter off and will also have a map for daily driving where its tuned with the filter on. Just be careful trying something that the stock block might not be able to handle. I figured that out a few months back. Should get me car back next weekend and for sure shooting for huge numbers.

Yeah went for 13.5 psi and it didn't work out too well on the stock block.

How about running a screen over an Inlet bell or Velocity Stack?

I've actually thought about this. I'm going to see if I can chip away at the RAD support, so I can slip my filter off without having to pull the blower off.

I'd then run a velocity stack for the strip, since I heard screens do some funky stuff with the airflow.

I just ordered a Velocity Stack from Summit...Gonna test it out and see how it runs.

TopgunZ · 05-06-2017, 08:06 PM

I thought the reason it let go is due to a mishift, overrev, boom.....?

Can anyone help identify this noise its either the jack shaft or the charger I think I hoping the charger doesn't need a full refurb

Manifold vacuum is what opens the BOV. If the throttles are closed (or barely open) the manifold vacuum goes up and that is what pulls the BOV open. So, at idle it should be open as well as steady cruise speed.

We were all noobs at one time, except maybe TopZ.........
