Vortech Supercharger with FA20Club.com Tune
 
Got the latest Vortech 9 PSI kit from Chris at Perrin. Chris was great with all my questions post purchase and helped me with a couple of questions during the install as well. Great customer service. Thank you.

The install went pretty well, no real issues except that one of the undertray plastic piece gets pushed down a little by the intercooler so when the bumper goes on it pulls a little on the corner of the bumper near the light and the clip pops out. The kit itself is very well designed and fabricated. I can see that a lot of thought has gone into this.

I ran with the generic 92 octane map provided by Perrin and the car felt good. Much better than stock, linear power etc. Pretty much all the things that others with the kit have stated. I concur with their feedback.
Since we have 93 octane in Florida, I figured I would let Toni from FA20Club work his magic. Work his magic he did. First run with the base Perrin map yielded a respectable 232HP and 170 lb/ft. Our final number was 254HP and 194 lb/ft!! Nice numbers! The car feels amazing on the road. Thank you Toni for spending hours with the car until you were satisfied :)

Mods on my car that may contribute to performance:
CF Drive shaft
HKS Legamax Catback
Nameless Downpipe
Wheels and Tires (lighter than stock)
Rotors and Calipers (lighter than stock)
Lightweight Perrin Pulley

On to the pics:

Sweet setup....still hands down the cleanest car ive dealt with. The power delivery is smooth and very direct. Car still has a bit more left in it but this is more than enough for anyone with this kit to start with. Kit is the newer version with the larger blower and 9 psi pulley.

Good stuff. Glad to see another dynojet with the latest version of the kit.
