Not sure if you read your comments but I just wanted to say THANK YOU for just sticking more on the cars rather than some of the clickbaity BS car channels out there. YAA BOYYYY!!! P. S. Send me a hoodie. I'm poor. ☹️

As soon as I finish my DD build I want to get a 2014-2018 Sierra RCSB and pull out the L83 5.3 for a wet sump HC LT4 or for a 4.125" bore stock stroke L8T block with PnP heads and Kong ported 2650 or Gen V 3.0 Whipple. The more I see these DI Gen V LT engines on a dyno, the more they impress me.

The video clip you patched in says the white car had a 9% lower vs the 18% here. If that's the case it would explain making similar boost on different uppers.

[@JNanez72]

It has? Well hell I better look into all the past vlogs then. Thanks

[@killercan10]

Any particular reason in keeping the stock short lid on the supercharger? I'm sure there's probably little no no gains power wise but I'd like to think that added airflow under the lid would help with temps what not.

[@RaceProvenMotorsports]

Customer didn’t want to change it

[@deaundrecog]

The numbers are reading maybe 20-40 hp too high because it was STD reading but still great power!

Looks like Kong did a little nip tuck of thier own. " It's the little blower that could ". Dam Big burd just laid down some bad #s

[@MichaelGreco]

Hi RPM, c7 z06, assuming no other changes but the Kong Stage X, pulley and tune what type of total conservative gains are you seeing? Kong Website says "40-80rwhp proven gains!!! (+40-60rwhp additional with "Stage X" Upgrade)" I can't tell which figure to use or if you add them together, or if one figure is crank and the other is wheel...

[@RaceProvenMotorsports]

Is 40-60 or 40-80 that much diff? Haha. All depends on the setup

[@MichaelGreco]

@@RaceProvenMotorsports I guess I'm trying to figure out if the stage X an additional 40-60. For example with a particular setup if the regular Kong CNC ported blower gives you 40 horsepower will say stage x give an additional 40 horsepower...

[@RaceProvenMotorsports]

As we said depends on the setup there is no number guarantee for any mod. Yes it will add more over the original port, how much more depends on the setup. If you have basic bolt on's it won't be much and also not worth it. If it's a max effort build like the one on in the video it will be around 50 as we showed.

[@MichaelGreco]

@@RaceProvenMotorsports Ok cool, thank you. I'm not going too crazy at first, but that could change. I suppose there's nothing wrong with having more headroom and it's probably worth extra $500 while they are already porting the blower. Much more expensive and harder to add later...

[@football72220]

The King Kong Port!!! 🦍😎

[@matthewmohri9990]

License plate bracket has "Brazzers" on it. LOL I guess it needed a Kong Blower Port.

[@jaimegutierrez3815]

2.3 upper and 18 lower correct? I know it was in the video just want to be sure that’s right. I’m doing the Kong x port and want to be sure I should upgrade my lower from a 14 to a 18

[@RaceProvenMotorsports]

Yes it had an 18 lower

[@notbuyingit8047]

The supercharger in a 2017 is same as 2016? I’d think the 17 would have an advantage, that even more impressive. But I guess the changes made no difference in power only cooling?

[@RaceProvenMotorsports]

Yes they are all the same. Only difference is the lid in the 2015-2016 is lower

Wen is this for sale yall

[@autohitman]

Will that proper tire handle that power on the street? Say a 20MPH - 80MPH pull…. My previous car was a ZL1 LSA w/ 745 WHP and the Toyo R888R’s would grip ok, but once they wore just a little; they became useless….. Still a fun car but it made me realize more power means nothing if you can’t put it down. This is the one thing stopping from getting stage 4 package….. If I knew if I can get say a 19” replica rim w/ _____ tires, it will put the power down; I’m sold…

Is that so? I guess you are a tuner. How lean was it?

You exposed yourself when you did the comparison between port LT4 best numbers to the none DI can run mid 12 under wot Based on the plot you on dyno graph went off target

So since you are so smart what was the AFR? You are saying it leans so how lean was it?

[@Saddedude]

Looks like theres a bit of a cam difference between the two.

[@RaceProvenMotorsports]

Lol you can’t tell from a dyno graph what cam is in a car. Both of those C7 Zs had the same cam we even say that at the end.

[@Saddedude]

@@RaceProvenMotorsports No i said thats what it *looks like*. Sacrificing low end tq for hp up top is a classic cam swap tradeoff. Now other things can cause this too. So whatever voodoo madness has caused the blower too perform so well up top has also negatively affected its low end tq production if all other things are equal. Depending on how the cars performing at the track that may not even be a good thing. With all that said i would be very interested in seeing a stock blower, ported blower and all new voodoo ported blower ran back too back too back on the same car with the same pulley.

[@hensley1175]

whats the HP limit before you recommend a tire?

[@RaceProvenMotorsports]

Honestly, some stock stuff could benefit from a decent tire so there is no “limit”.

[@nurburgringdreaming2221]

I seriously doubt if you fellas are going to answer this question but what is the average wait time to have your heads done and sent back to the customer nowadays and there’s a Real good reason for me asking PS. I’m not looking to send my heads in to you just wanting to know on your end what kind of time delays have y’all been seeing on the east coast

[@RaceProvenMotorsports]

That’s not what we do. We are not a machine shop. A.I. And Frankenstein does our machining for heads. If you are looking to order heads contact [e-mail] you are sent heads and charged a core charge. When you send your old/stock heads back and they are inspected that core charge is refunded. So there is zero downtime.

You guys should start a prize pool for the dyno result guessing, a dollar a day for the rest of the year. and whoever has the most wins for the year takes it all. Certainly would raise the stakes. If you dont have a dollar to throw in you dont get to play that day 😂
