ESS G3 Supercharger kit arrived & installed!

You can, all you need is GT500 injectors ~$300. Every form of boost requires injectors on these cars. But you can keep the stock fuel pump, rails etc. 120mm on 93 will make over 700whp.

I have a set from a generous member here coming. Cant wait. Ive made some sick progress tuning and it holds through 3rd and mostly through 4th, but top of 4th it starts to lean out and game over. But man its a rocket. Great kit so far.

Would that same setup work in Cali where we’re mostly limited to 91?

Of course. You'd get a tad less spark or you could run some octanium or boostane.

Yes, just substitute for the 125mm pulley for 91 octane

so you're out of injector but still have fuel? i was counting on at least injectors

good news. injectors were on the list. but if pressure was to be an issue, those kpm fuel pumps claim to fix cornering starvation also

Yeah strange to see pump and rail pressure happy but inj PW at 10ms. And at higher load/RPM in 4th it was struggling to hold PE. 3-4 rip was perfect in 3rd, PE happy but then after the shift mid way in 4th PE started slipping upward as it was trying to push down. Pump and rail pressure fine, but injector PW pushing to its limit. I tried everything in the meantime to push it out like you said DW did. And its just not there with the stock injectors.

Thanks yall! That’s the setup I’ll need to go for eventually

So your able to tune the car yourself? Are you an installer or have a engine shop? That must be fun tuning your own engine?

 

[Junkyard Dog]

Not anymore. Sold the black one a while back and got a C8 and the MM GT. I’m building tunes for the C8 as well.

Does that make the car purchases tax deductible?

Im not sure. Working out all that with my guy.

Yes Im an actual "tooner" and I usually tune NA cars gen 2/3/4 mainly. I do this as a business, but not on a large scale. I have tuned 234 s650's at this point since july last year when tuning came out. I only work out of TIktok at this point. No IG and no FB. Business is good. But I still work a day job. And do rely heavily on partnerships with a few other tuners like Dan from P1. I just had a nice long convo with Derel Wengerd. Super good dude and top tier tuner.

Im on the fence if Im going to sell ESS tunes like I do NA, but still working that out. The main thing I do well is ghost cam and pop flame tunes for the gen2/3/4 cars. Lots of tuners dont like doing them or are annoyed by people asking for them, and have perfected those tunes for the gen2/3/4 cars. Again with help and partnership with Dan from P1 and a few other friendly tuners in the business.

Man I'm jealous, and I'm not the jealous type.

I did the Whipple Stage 1 on my 2024 and I would never go Whipple again.

Great choice.

What did you not like about the Whipple? I have been running mine for 20 months and I have had no problems.

Wow that is awesome . Are you anywhere near north bay in California by chance? I need a good engine shop that I can goto in my area. There are none that I know of around here.
Cheers . All the best.

How hard is tuning anyway? I've always wondered how it works and the process involved.
