05 Procharged GTO + alcohol

kwiktsi · 08-05-2006

I have the standard kit with a 15 gph nozzle on my procharged 05. The car has ONLY the Procharger P1 SC kit (with their 42 lb injectors) and alcohol- no other parts added. I dynoed 474/413 with a the kit as-is from procharger. Then I moved the air filter out of the engine bay, added the alcohol, changed the thermistor in the stock IAT sensor to a faster reacting piece that was recommended by a couple GTO guys and swapped to smaller pulley. With the stock pulley, I was ~6 lbs boost with IAT'sover 140 by the end of a pull and ~15 degrees max timing. Now with the alcohol and cooler IAT's coupled with the faster reacting thermistor- the car runs 18 degrees of timing all the way through redline with IAT's in the mid-90's at the highest so far at WOT and 9-10 psi max boost. I have the kit coming on at 2 psi (no bog!) and it hits like a small nitrous shot now that the IAT's drop so fast and it shoots my timing up. As the car sits now (pulley, alcohol, thermistor, filter relocation) I did 585 wheel horse/ 513 tq last night- three damn near identical runs in a row with no cool down- love the alcohol

and then today they wanted to put it up again to show some people and first pull on a cool car was 588/520 backed up by FOUR 584-586 hp/511-513 tq runs BACK TO BACK! The consistency with the alcohol is unreal! I should add that without the alcohol, when I did my 474 whp pull- I did two badk to back- first was 474- second was 450- 34 whp loss due to the heat. Not an issue with the alcohol!

Just wanted to let people who may be considering it how well it works!! Thanks to the alcohol, I was able to run more boost and gain a tad over 100 whp with no retune all on pump gas

that's definately good to hear.

Real world testing is always good for potential consumers

Can't wait to get my devilsown kit intalled.

You said you just have the basic stage 1 kit? Wow..
