Paxton & Vortech owners please

[Magnetic]

If you had to do it all over again.......would you? What would you change if you could about the kit and or switch to a complete different kit? Looking at taking the leap to boost tomorrow.:cheers:

How did you get the tial installed?

I got the Paxton in satin with 3.6" pulley, ID1000s, Lund tune, JMS BAP, ngauge, and race BOV... Wouldn't change anything except for maybe adding the CAI right away instead of doing it later. Car does run pretty good with stock air box and drop in filter, though.

 

[Magnetic]

Glad to hear. You guys are making my decision even easier. I have a jlt intake right now. Can I use that or no?

Definitely upgrade the BOV it sucks. I just got the RACE version on the way. Adding the wastegate right away is probably smart too so you don't have to go through the pain of swapping pulleys and belt.

I would step up and get the hd head unit. I don't like the self lubricated. Another part to change oil on. That is one of the reasons I sold my 2200 and bought a v7.

for the $$ the paxton is hard to beat.

850 rwhp or so potential, and easy 9 second combo on these cars with a race gas / e85 tune

i have 2 black and one polished kit in stock, no wait for boost!!!

I have the self contained 2200, but I am at high elevation. If I could it over, I would go with the badass Vortech head unit, tap the oil pan and a 8 rib setup from the get go.

i hear ya. i just don't really want to drop 8k on a blower right now. i think the 2200sl will be fine for what i am after. i drive my car a few days a week to work and hit the track maybe 3 times a year. really i am just bored with the power it has right now. it has no wow factor and its also the only vehicle i have right now without boost. the coyote in NA trim isn't dull by any means it just needs a little pick me up.

Bump, just because I want to hear more end user experience. Gotta be more than just 5 guys running these on this forum.

I ordered Paxton's complete kit through beef last week so pretty soon i'll have some initial reviews myself. I haven't heard much about paxton's canned tune though, most people are getting remote tuned from Lund which of coarse is a better option, but I just wanted a nice bump in power that I could just bolt on, flash and go. Most of my research came from the S197 guys that have been running this kit for years now and love it.
