@GreenS550 have you installed the ESS on your Bullitt yet? If so, who tuned it and how much power are you making? If you don’t mind, will you please post the specs on your blower and fuel system? Thanks.
Well, the plot thickens once again. On a long drive my left knee started acting up again. Just as I was ready to purchase that day. So, with much trepidation I sold the car to my son. Today I bought a 2021 low mileage loaded CS 10 speed with 3.55 gears. Just today I was thinking of contacting ESS. But, I do not know now

If my left leg ever hits the point I can't row gears I ask the s550 community to please put me out of my misery!... with that said, your new a10 car will love the centri even more than a stick car. Slap it on and enjoy! I love my mt82 and turbos but I feel like the a10 was built for a centrifugal.

Yes, I put a procharger on my 2018 with the same drivetrain as this white GT/CS I have now. With the low 6 psi blower and "entry level" tune it made 525 rwhp. Drove actually better than stock but of course I had to put a different pulley, custom tune injectors, etc on it to make a lot more power and more or less made too much power to really enjoy on the street (I am 69 years old btw). But that lower power original setup was perfect for likely mid 11s im thinking. My understanding is that ESS with Wengerd's tune drive very nicely, though.

two thing i will say to do as you may regret them later, Get the G3X and ID1050s.
I regret not going with the X and if I want to upgrade to it now its like 800 bucks and the car is down for however long it takes to ship it, fix it, and ship it back.

Two things I told myself that quickly changed are "i dont plan to spin it that fast" and "ill never go E85" lol.

Granted, it takes like 15 mins to swap out injectors so not a huge deal.

With the 10R80 and a Centri, every shift will be in the rpm powerband. A Centri and the A10 is such a great match. From a roll it's insane. My car makes right at 800hp on 12 pounds but since this D-1X head unit doesn't make much torque (on purpose), the tires hook up.

people running pump gas and a giant blower pulley are sad because they aren’t coming anywhere near the full potential of the system
depends where you live... e85 availability is an issue for a lot of people so pump gas is a requirement... for example, the nearest e85 to me is about an hour drive each direction... no reason for someone in my shoes to ever consider e85 tune and associated mods... is there more potential there? sure, but it'll have to remain as "potential" as "practical" makes a bigger difference. I wouldn't call it sad, it's just reality for a lot of folks...
