Time to turn this forum around a bit. Supercharger has been very impressive.
Some big changes coming soon. Hopefully a few weeks ![]() [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=so5KE0i1rc0"]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=so5KE0i1rc0[/ame]

If your redline is at 8K, you can very well see that happening, otherwise your just cracking 90mph

So I finally got a chance to install and try out the Edelbrock specific "D-box" from Delicious tuning. Thanks @sales@delicioustuning.com for helping me out, always great customer service!
Install: Quick and easy. I actually got the unit on a Fri and I was so excited I did the whole install on the parking lot after work ![]() Didn't come with any instructions but very self explanatory, just unplug the "extension" harness that came with the SC kit and replace with the Dbox connectors (I believe its a couple TMAP's, a MAF and a MAP connector. I suggest you check out steps 160 & 161 on the Edelbrock install manual). ![]() ![]() I actually left the existing harness in place and just zip-tied them nearby, just in case something happens to the box. Took me about 10 mins to route the lines and another 10 mins of meticulous zip-tying to keep the lines clean. It also came with some adhesive-backed velcro to attach it to the fuse box lid, which worked pretty nicely. Impressions w/ Delicious tune Everything just feels "smoother". Can't really feel any difference when driving around normally. I did, however, notice the engine sound and feel "smoother"(less harsh) at the upper rev range when doing a a couple red line pulls. Butt dyno hints that there's more power there, but its probably measurement error. Also, prior to the D-box, I was actually getting some pretty bad "bucking", where I would violently jerk back and forth, like a newb stick-shift driver, when starting from stop or cruising at low speed (<25 mph). I felt that the car would initiate the "buck" and when I try to modulate the gas, it would jerk me forward, causing me to tap the gas again, further perpetuating the buck some more. About the only thing I can do to stop it is to let off the gas completely and clutch-in. This was part of the reason I got this unit as recommendation by Zach. Now, with the D-box, I think it has alleviated that quite a bit, with me being able to "modulate" it away once I feel it start, instead of having to clutch-in. Or its all placebo effect... and I just suck a driving... probably... Impressions w/ CARB tune: Pretty much the same impressions as above. Can't notice anything during regular driving, but much smoother on the upper rev range. Same butt dyno readings here. I never had the "bucking" issue with the CARB tune, but I think that was mostly due to the "softer" throttle mapping that it comes with. ![]() Over all, I'm happy with my purchase. I wouldn't say its a "must buy" but definitely a "nice to have" for a smoother driving experience. Now, I need to stop staring at that spot where the other "D-box" (FlexFuel) should be... |

I've noticed I get the same bucking even though I started on the D box. It only happens when the engine is cold on e85 though. After about 2 minutes, all of the bucking goes away.

I also have 4.88s and e-85 with the Edelbrock Supercharger. But mine is the automatic. Couldn't be more happy. Pretty easy to get sub 5 second 0 to 60 times.
Can't say enough about Shawn Church.. Had a glitch in the tune and he figured it out with out even putting the car on the dyne. He's the best. |
