I love the fact you're making this gt500 more street car friendly. It's good that people see this and understand that when you're talking about a street car every last hp and every last tenth isn't always what makes the decisions. You can have a very nice driving and fun street car that can still get down at the track by going with a setup like what you're going with. Everyone wants a huge Whipple and an auto and all the hp till they find out the car drives like shit and isn't fun anymore outside of the drag strip. I think keeping the manual and going tvs is absolutely ideal for a street car and judging by your actions with this car you agree. Good job.

5.4's and 5.8's just sound so much better than a coyote.

Gotta say I agree. One of multiple reasons I went with an 07 gt500. I have a gen3r on mine I can't say enough good things about the tvs. For a street car tvs all day every day and they can go quick at the track too.

Hell yeah! Looking forward to seeing the difference!

Great video. Super excited for first driving impressions

Always love the GT500 content!

WHAT A VACATION...Very glad you took this direction with your content. Thanks Alex.

This is cool to see. Looking forward to the numbers when you're finished. Greatly appreciate the content.

you made my TVS car fast as hell so good you finally join the club

Re: throttle bodies. I’m not sure about the newest vmp throttle bodies but if I’m not mistaken everyone else was using the stock ford actuators to operate their big ass throttle bodies and they all had issues like this where the actuator wasn’t strong enough to hold the tb open. There are a couple people who lost motors because the Tb did some sort of reset calibration at WOT. Honestly the primary benefit of turbos and centrifugal superchargers imho is compressing the air before it gets to the throttle body so you can use a stock throttle body

Glad to see new videos every few days along with the live chats on both channels. And still working full time at a 9-5. Hard work forever pays !

Damn Alex, you really know your shit. Very impressed!!!

Love the GT500 content Alex. That is such a cool car. Waiting on the Dyno numbers 🍿🍿

Great video! Very much appreciate the technical videos and illustrating the bumps in the road you encounter along the way and not just showing the clean finished product after install. It’s important to show that all this is not just “plug n play” as many will portray it to be. Please don’t stop doing what you do. Much continued success sir!

Always like this channel but you just grabbed the next gear with these install videos. Great job!

This was excellent!

Hey Alex, I remember Demonology had a similar issue. Turned out to be the electronic throttlebody couldn't handle the pressure so he had to go old school drive by cable. Hope this helps.

Love the Gen3R. Stay safe

Nice choice Alex ! the vacuum reference line is connected below the supercharger pulley.

Thanks for your awesome content 👍

Man! TVS should be fun - great video 32 mins short for me but still greatly appreciate the info

Badass. Being that I have a 2.9 whipple gt500, this is very relatable content. Tig vision I think makes a battery/catch can that goes in the location of the stock battery, or just run breathers with sweat bands around them to prevent oil spray on the coil covers you know, foxbody style.

Great job man! Interested in the dyno results. I'm a big TVS fan. We'll see 😂

Nicely done. I'm a diehard whipple guy and I am looking forward to seeing the results when you get it on the dyno. Do you think you would get this TVS ported in the future? Not many guys are doing videos of each upgrade like you are with all your vehicles. Godspeed and keep up the good work.

Great great.. 👌👌💥💥 this is cool. Lots of things to learn. TVS FTW 🤘Vacation well used..✌️

Gotta take it to the track now and see how it holds up

Thanks.

Holy shite Bicho! Your problem is that JLT CAI!

A little crank case oil blowing on your s/c rotors is good for keeping them lubricated... At least that's what my buddy's dad's uncle on his mom's side says

Those Foxbody wheels though 😍

TVS for tha win . I'm running similar setup GEN 3 vmp jokers ported built engine

You need a shorter bolt because it is clearanced to fit under the tvs. That's why vmp sold it with a tool and a shorter bolt. Good luck.

I like this

Now you need to take it to the track.

Saw the golf carts creeping past and thought there was going to be a drive-by.

When I did my Longtubes, I had to remove both motor mounts and lower the engine, so I didn't have go drop the k member.

It’s runs like from factory awesome

Definitely curious to how the 60' is gonna change or change at all switching to something so much smaller but can whip up fast.

It looks like you had a bit of an easier time installing the ESS kit

Loving the content 🔥

Yes

Do you think the same or similar logic applies to the 2300 vs. 2650 Alex? As far as the “instant” throw into the back of the seat? … Looking forward to seeing the IAT numbers and the delta between these two blowers! I think the 2650 will surprise the party.

Viejon tienes que reemplazar el enpaque

Hey Alex, I have a gen3r on my built motor 2014 gt500. 2.4 upper and 10% lower with an 85.3" belt. I have the bps ac delete to install but can't find and belt length info. Do you know if the bps kit is the ac idler that you have installed? Thanks in advance and keep up the great content!

With the efficiency that's TV's brings I think you'll be able to make similar power with maybe 30-35 less degree iat.

The hate is strong for JLT in this video. lol. It's going to be cool to see what it was makes with the TVS. I wonder if it will make more heat than the old whipple.

TVS 2650 FTW!!

Vmp tvs for the win

Twin screws are more efficient than roots style blowers so I dont see you making more power or even equal power by swapping. Also the reason the TVS is easier to rotate by hand VS the Whipple is due to the fact a twin screw actually compresses air inside itself so there is more resistance to rotation as you compress the air while rotating it.

What is the 4.5 Whipple's rpm limit? I'm guessing it's not even close, maybe a smaller blower closer to the limit and great cooling could be better. My .02c, correct me if I'm wrong.

Used to have a 2.3 whipple on my truck, miss that. Has an s480 now and while it makes way more power, it's not a fun. Blowers on daily driver shit is > Turbo.

If your car is a street car first and foremost go with the gen3r and don't look back. They can still make ALOT of power but they feel 100x better on the street and more fun to drive in normal street driven rpm ranges.
