Coming back to boost with a new Pc stage2 D1x...

Adam doesn't like pushing much over 700rwhp on 93. And he's not a fan of the driveability of the cams that are out there and prefers stock. I make plenty of power on stock cams, so I tend to agree with him. His E85 tuning has gotten pretty good too.

How does your car drive with 3:73 gears and 900 wheel? Does it hook in 1-3?

Swapped to 3.31 for half mile racing. 3.73s are too aggressive with the MT82 and my power level.

Ordered a Procharger stage2 D1x from beefcake today. My current stage 3 comp cams and trick flow 1 springs will be removed to give way to brand new stock cams and livernois springs..

A few vendors have great custom grind blower cams. Would get a few extra ponies for sure.

Can't wait to see your results!

Adam says i will get better results with the stock cams. he didnt go into detail said it has something to do with losing boost because of overlap!! I guess its why comp cams makes camshafts specifically for boost and others for n/a!

That's funny, when these cams started coming out and I wondered about too much valve overlap with big na cams, everyone called me crazy.

Update: the kit has been paid for since 11/17. The order is now with Procharger to be built. I called the beefcake about turn around times he said 2 weeks to be shipped. Called pro charger and they said the latest is 3 weeks np. My appointment with rev auto is 11/27 and i know i wont make that date, but rev says its ok because they have a p1x build there now, then mine will be next and then a whipple build. With my logistics it looks like they will be tuning my car & the whipple back to back. All these cars are pump gas cars so naturally they want to compare them. My car will be the 1st d1x they will tune!

Whipple on pump gas,I want to see this.

Very nice! I would look into a wastegate later on down the line too.

I think it is all in tuner preference. Lund runs same cams in his turbo car and has tuned several others and made great power.

because i had a paxton 2200sl a good unit in my last car. The d1x is a bad ass blower. i like the Head unit placement, i like the ease of installation and and de-installation if i need to return to stock, like the fact of being able to drive home if i break a belt. I like that placement of the maf sensor which gives you a cleaner signal for better drive ablilty..also like the straight cut gears and the sound of it. Also the Paxton set up cant be started in temperatures below 25 degrees f according the Paxton owners manual. it can void your warranty and can damage the head unit. Not the case with pc...

Also.changing the pulley on the d1 is a lot easier then the paxton.

super easy especially on the stage 2. 3 minute job at most!

D1X = Baddest blower out there right now for these motors.

You will LOVE it. Not to mention if you ever turn it up on E85 that blower can go well into the 4 digit range.

Not to thread jack but didn't want to resurrect a long since dead thread...Can us lowly D1SC owners send them in for the D1X upgrade yet? Never saw a cost or a "good to go" post on this. If you need a test mule just let me know!


Now back to the original OP...Subbed for results!
