    Eric, I so enjoyed this video, your down to earth, straight talk, and coupled with your genuine desire to make our viewing valuable. I typically get so sick of videos with cooky mechanics, bad language is their only language, and not taking a serious approach to their work - this isn't entertainment, it is knowledge transfer with a backdrop of enjoyment. Again, you have the right framework, personality, and best of all we all walk away feeling you gave us something worthwhile. THANKS!!!

    I have a 2022 Camaro ZL1 1LE as well. I have been looking for an informative video that will explain why I need to go with my gut. Which is 1 7/8ths Long tube headers with high flow cats, X pipe and Corsa Extreme mufflers. It's gonna be expensive...especially with a tune, but the with the HP gains and the sheer sound this car will be a force on the streets and will be heard from far far away!

    Great video I just hit the subscribe button. I’m a little lost I live in California and own the first 2650 6 generation manual transmission camaro. The Edelbrock 2300 was installed way back in late 2016. 4 years ago it was swapped out for the Edelbrock 2650 and I’m loving it ever since. 609/587 and all smog legal. Motor is all stock and 40k miles later all is flawless. that tiny 1.74 Liter is putting in some work I can’t even imagine the charge temps when it on the pavement.

    • @floridahighperformance
      @floridahighperformance  2 роки тому +1

      Very cool. Temps were actually
      Not bad at all as we did not change the boost output yet. Once we start spinning it harder, then we will probably see temps start to rise under heavy load. We plan on upgrading the HX cooling system and other items along the way as well- and eventually will go 2650. Next episode is coming soon where we test stock vs ported LT4 blower with upper pulley.

  • @Turbo329
    @Turbo329 Рік тому +1

    I loved this! My recommendation is to always go with 1-7/8" headers. 2" headers often run into clearance issues. Even with the 1-7/8" headers you need to move the passenger side wire harness away (the one under the coolant reservoir) about 2-3 inches. If you don't your dash will go crazy when the wires start to melt and the car will start throwing random codes. 1-7/8" headers make great power and you don't sacrifice too much of your mid-range (for us track rats who need pop off the corners). I'll be adding American Racing headers to my car in the future.

  • @myhometechguy

    So few people understand what horsepower is. Horse power is how much work and engine can do. Torque is the rotational force it produces. You are correct in that torque is what's going to push the car down the road. But it's where the torque is that matters. It's not the crank torque, it's the wheel torque. At any given speed you want the highest torque at the wheel. This is achieved through gearing. An engine that produces half the torque but at twice the RPM produces equal torque at the wheel at the same speed through gearing. Horsepower is simply a mathematical calculation based on torque versus RPM. A higher horsepower motor will produce higher wheel torque through lower gears than a lower horsepower but higher torque motor. For instance, if you have an 1800 horsepower jet turbine engine that produces only 286 ft pounds of torque at 33,000 rpm, if you gear down the rotational speed to 5,000 RPM the torque will be 1,890-foot pounds.

    • @floridahighperformance

      ARH catted systems work well, but do have their limitations. Above 800 RWHP, the cats can fail. They're not as high quality as the "green cats" from Kooks, from what I understand. They're plenty safe though for any engine, and I have NEVER in my years had a set of ARH cats fail, even above 800. I hope this helps...

Thing works, plain and simple. That being said, larger blower and FBO on 93 octane, say 15 lbs of boost should add 200 RWHP or so to your set up.

      @floridahighperformance  2 роки тому +1

      Thanks for the subscription! Good question glad you asked. We will be testing this in a future episode. Our custom LT4 camshaft grind complements the supercharger and actually should do a good job of keeping boost pressure in the cylinder and retaining a lot of the low end torque she makes now. We also will change the pulleys configuration to adjust for the increase in airflow from the camshaft. So, any losses from the camshaft should be negated or limited by the increase in boost. I do expect a huge jump in horsepower- that’s for sure. Right now the HP and TQ are pretty lopsided because of poor efficiency.

      Usually diameter...and bends. OEM is smaller than most AM systems...so the whole slip together thing works well. When you try to add TWO AM systems like Corsa and ARH mid pipe, both of which are 3", they have to be welded together or expanded to slip over...I just butt welded it and its been fine since...works like a charm.

    • @floridahighperformance
      @floridahighperformance  2 роки тому +1

      It’s a great place to start. Coating the headers will help to reduce radiant heat, for sure. It won’t make much of a difference with respect to MATs or IATs…to be honest. That’s more of a heat exchanger/cooling system deal. None the less- I highly recommend to clients that, at a minimum, they ceramic coat their headers. I prefer silver ceramic…like what JetHot offers. Not a fan of BLACK coatings or Cerkoat…never had good luck with either of those.

      More boost without improving air flow through the engine will result in greater work on the part of the supercharger which yields massive amounts of torque. Efficiency suffers but the seat of the pants goes through the roof- so on a street car it meets most customers wants and needs out of their weekend street car. Temps are no greater than they were stock…at least on my build they’re not. I attribute this to properly bleeding the HX system.

      Hey David- thanks for checking out the video. You know, can’t say I disagree with you. Entry level mods on these cars aren’t cheap if you go with quality parts. The cost of tuning is also up there. I guess the torque is really what adds the seat of the pants feel to this car with bolt ons…not the HP. I never really cared about HP on a street car- torque was always what I was after as it’s technically what moves the vehicle from point a to b.

Then your contradict yourself and say that you need to spend the money and buy the expensive headers because of the fitment and then 2 seconds later you explain that you had to modify a bunch of shit on the passenger side, unbolting motor mounts and removing crap to get them to fit,.

    • @floridahighperformance
      @floridahighperformance  2 роки тому +7

      Never had an issue with ARH gaskets specifically. I agree, in general the graphite stuff is junk- I typically use MLS like the stock gaskets. The OEM Gen V LT exhaust manifold gaskets aren’t like the LS gaskets- they’re thin and can cause issues sealing. I’ve not had a single ARH header gasket blow out- ever- in 20 years. Ever. Have I had others give me issues? Yes absolutely. As stated previously, when I can I use GM style MLS- no doubt. But- this application works best with what’s included in the kit.
      With regard to “contradiction” in the video…you missed the point. I never said you don’t have to move things around to install these (or other) headers. 2” primary longtubes are tight on the passenger side of these 6th gens. What I’m referring to is once they’re installed having issues with clearance…like the steering shaft on the DS. A lot of headers hit that shaft once they’re bolted in. These don’t, nor do they contact anything on the PS (once they’re installed). Having to move parts around to install another part has no bearing on their quality. Thank you for checking out the video and your comment.
