Default Need help...s/c'd GT made 333rwhp...wtf

I'm lost right now...I took my car and dyno'd it because I felt the car didn't gain much from the supercharger I just installed.

Well, thats because it didn't. I gained a couple of horsepower over what I had N/A. Literally a couple.

My torque curve is beautiful, but a really embarassing number at 280ft/lbs

I have the 4" pulley on the Saleen S/C with 39# injectors. A/F was 11.8-12.0 across the board.

I'll include a dyno-graph...

Let the trouble-shooting begin!!

Here's a picture of the boost actuator on the back of the S/C on the passenger side. It looks to be locked down?? I'm thinking this might be the problem?

Here's CrazyStylin's boost actuator...notice no screw where the flap hits down at...mine has one there...

I only have a minute, and I dont know crap about SC's, but if it looks to be locked down...figure out how to unlock it.

yup...about to go triple check it. Now, there is a screw that the flap on the actuator hits off of when it closes. Is that screw supposed to be there??

EDIT: That screw shown in my picture of the boost actuator definetly isn't in the one Crazystylin has in his write up on the Saleen S/C....any one get a close up of their boost actuator for me??

Did they datalog boost? Got a boost gauge? What are the numbers?

Somebody else had this problem and they had left the zip tie on the actuator that is used during the install.

I'll take a crack at it.............Lupo what's the boost/psi?

Looks to be that the belt is slipping....I remember you mentioned that before.

Looks like there's a zip tie on the actuator of the yellow car.

EDIT: Nevermind. That was removed after install.
