SC thread (combos)
Ok heres what im looking for. Id like to see vortec S-trim numbers. Starting off with non intercooled. so 6-8 psi or so, with all the supporting mods, injectors, maf, and whatever other hp mods you have as well( exhaust, TB,powerpipe, heads, cams). mainly looking for factoryish, with bolt ons, then move up to the heads and other expensive high horsepower stuff. Im looking to see what combinations actually make with what mods. So i know what to expect when i bolt down to a dyno. Also would like where you got the dyno and whether they are corrected or uncorrected numbers. And if you know all that and then added a intercooler and smaller pully or whatever then feel free to add that info. Id prefer actual numbers tho, not just round about guesses. PLEASE!!! thanks

Might actually want to post this in the pipes, boost, and juice section too. But i will warn you that most people, except for jive 
, have really run their s-trims to the likings of ported heads and cams, but have the upgrade to the t-trim. So you might want to include that criteria into your thread too. Also, look into making your car an addict and putting it on the meth. Meth works real well in non-i/c'd applications.

mainly im looking to see what and how people got the cheep power lol. i know for only this much more money you can get a t trim and lots of ponies, but most people started with an s trim, upgraded to get a lot out of that set up then upgraded the charger. At least that seems to be what i hear about all the time, so i figured ask for what they were making and how, because it makes more sense for me to do non intercooled and s trim, and then add upgrades like a nice set of heads or cams, or even headers, before i drop money on a bigger anything flowing through a less than great flowing motor. maybe thats just me, just thought id give it a try.

The maf goes in the fender in draw through setup on the vortech kits. This is because the maf has to be before the blower and it can't be too close to the blower or it wouldn't read right. If he were running a blow through setup for the maf, it would be placed before the throttle body.

Don't have any dyno #s since the blower because I'm tuning with Sniper. Just put the new clutch and trans in and next I'm going to put the intercooler on and I'm probably going to take it and get it dyno tuned soon. So we shall see... As of right now it has stock motor with non-intercooled S-trim @ 10psi, offroad X, and catback for power mods. TKO500 trans with spec stg3 clutch, and built 31 spline rear end for the driveline.
